Hi guys,

I'm selling my GROM USB box of tricks. I'm sure everyone knows what it is, but for those who don't it basically allows you to play MP3's stored on a USB device or your iPod/iPhone through the stock Lexus head unit.

Installation is very easy, and I've only had it for a couple of months. It's also running the latest firmware.
