Default Anyone? in Seattle area

Hey guys just wondering if any of you had or know of people that can Bypass the Nav safety features in a IS 350. I am willing to pay someone to hook it up for me I am sure there is a way without cutting up the harness to get this done. There is alot of info on this in the forums but i would rather have someone that is more expreienced. Any help would be great.


Thanks

Default HIV's?

what are those? Human Immunodefficeny Virus's? or did you mean HID's?

I guess no one with a IS 350 around seattle area has had this done?

Default Nav Bypass

I got a 06' IS 350 and was just wondering if anyone around seattle area could bypass the safety feature for the nav and dvd player with out hacking up the factory harness so I could take it back if need be. It would be great to do if I could get someone to do it around here. I know I have read a bunch of peopl from like TX and CA that have successfully done it and was just curious if anyone up here was familiar in doing this..

hey dan, did a little research before work this morning, and it seems that its a pretty straight forward mod. you will mostlikely have to cut and splice 2 wires behind the radio for the nav safety bypass. the dvd bypass is just as simple, now its just up to you if you want to have this done. its not like you wouldnt be able to put the car back to stock. i have some connector de-pining tools so you can remove the pins from the connector connect the wires that need to be connected without chopping wires.
