Default iVic5i

I will be getting my iVic5i installed this weekend. I will post pics of it when done. Any issues or concerns I need to be aware of before the install starts?

I was thrown off as well but it's the vaistech unit. I do not know of any issues. I want to swap out my unit for this model. Can you post up after installation on the interfaces and the capabilities?

I had the Vaistech ml+ on my 08 IS350 and just upgraded to the IVIC about 3 weeks ago. I installed both myself and it is fairly easy. I am definitely impressed with the new unit. It is definitely an upgrade from the ML+. The apps are cool to play with but haven't seem myself using them much. The music player is definitely an upgrade from the older ml+ with easier controls and is more user friendly.

how dose this unit turn on? Like will it go right into iVic-i screen when the car turns on or i have to press a button. So dose this mean you can't go back to the original factory screen? i very much like the factory nav program.
