Can anyone recommend any good Navigation systems which have a back up camera and a mode to switch to a front camera if need be? Also, how can one get the bluetooth integration in the vehicle just like the premium package Lexus models. Thank you in advance for suggestions and feedback.

Congrats on the new ride! You will love it. 
There are quite a few AM solutions out there. I went with Kenwood because of the Garmin but Clarion, Pioneer, Sony, etc all have nice units. One has teamed up with Tom Tom but I can't remember which. As you are looking at the various brands remember, no matter how obscure, someone has posted a vid on youtube about it's operation, very handy.
Infinirx has just installed a Kenwood DNX9980 with a front and rear cam, I'm sure he'll be along to give a report on that.

Thank you so much Carver. I truly love the ride and it might sound silly but i love the power lift gate LOL. Got my private inspection done and it needed an air filter and new cabin filter, got them replaced. Next step is front window tints, just gotta decide which %.
I heard Kenwood went out of business? Also heard they are not so well in the long run? Thoughts? Yeah I would def love to hear about it from INFINIRX and his thoughts.
I was just browsing through the forum "The official what have you done to your RX today thread" Pretty neat stuff on there!!

I'm sure Kenwood would be surprised to hear that.
You might check out the Kenwood forums to get an idea what the owners think. http://kenwoodforums.com/
Also, run a general search on CL for DD or double din, GPS, BT, etc. No matter the brand, someone on these forums has installed it.

Gotcha - Thank you. Just saw someone has the eyebrow lights that the new CT has. Damn man, there is so much you can do. I think I am going to go broke by the end of this year doing some mods ha!

carved I am stealing your set up for my girls ride, anything you would have dine different other then having the ipod wired thru the center console? Where would you have lead the connector too? The little open/close compartment?Originally Posted by Carver

If she has an ipod the glove box is a good place for the connector because you can just leave it in there but I use an iPhone which comes and goes with me so the center console would have worked better.
If I did it over I would have the connector come out the left side of the console near the front which would allow me to attach the iPhone and leave it on top of the console. I'll take a picture of what I mean tomorrow.
Other than that I'm very happy with the setup.
