Question Please help with 2011 IS250 satnav motion hack

Hi guys

I've recently purchased a secondhand 2011 IS250 SE: (https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ml#post9070999)
I'm loving the car, but has only 1 issue with it Not being able to enter navigation destinations and not being able to select a specific MP3 while on the go. I understand (and agree) the risk of taking your eyes off the road, but not even allowing the passenger to do it is frustrating.

So I've discovered this satnav motion hack: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...le-moving.html
However, after painfully removing the center vents and satnav, I noticed that the back of my satnav looks totally different to that of the one in the link above. The guide was posted for a 2006 model, and all I can think is that they changed it on the 2nd gen IS models

Anyway, this is the harnesses I have at the back:



This is the part number on the display:



And this is the part number on the satnav itself:



And this is a web picture of how the back of my whole navigation unit looks like this:



Is there anyone with knowledge, or info, of this unit that can help me with the motion hack?

Thank you very much

Does anyone perhaps have access to the pin layout diagrams of the above satnav unit, then I can try and figure it out on my own

Have you looked into buying a two day subscription to http://techinfo.lexus.com ? I'm not sure of its availability in South Africa, but in the US it is only $15 for the two days. It's what the dealers use for service information, and includes access to wiring diagrams.
