Yeah i know what your saying normski, it has its useful features but to be honest i wont use it an awful lot i mainly wanted to get it sorted for cosmetic reasons, when i brought the car it was a right mess but that didn't bother me as i could see potential, i picked it up for peanuts and so far have put a new bonnet on repaired and resprayed front n back bumpers picked up a new key whitch i need to reprogram at some point and just stereo left to sort out . Anything possible with a little tlc ;)

Haha normski , u should of seen the state of the car when i brought it , it was a mess , previous owner was obviously not much of a pround lexus owner! Ok so here's the situation, I did as chris suggested and grabbed a cd lens cleaner from a mate of mine , popped it in the cd romran it a couple of times gave the maps cd another good clean popped it back in and my navigation is now WORKING again !!! Am proper chuffed ! A massive thanx to chris for the suggestion , u are a star and thanx to everyone else who's helped me with some great advice , u guys are awesome! ;)

Hey guys , Ok so started my car this morning and noticed a message on navigation screen saying please open door please check cd rom , am hoping that this is not a serious issue and that the disc has just come loose or something but im not sure where the cd rom is located so if anyone could tell me where to look and any possible fixes or solutions it would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanx guys ! ;)

Dont mean to sound stupid but first time doing this so wanna make sure i get everything right ;)

Ok i guess that doesn't really matter as its more for cosmetic purposes really , so do i use this along with the amp bypass lead yeah? Where exactly are the tx wires located and is it easy to connect? Thanx
