Don't know about a stupid 'impulse' buy mate, that looks fab! I can't wait to get one of these installed! Never had one and always wanted one so hopefully next year :)
How you finding it then so far? You happy with the quality?
All the best,
Jamie
Quality is great, toyota facia is so much better quality than the autoleads one! So many settings yet to play with, need to run another rca cable to the 4 channel amp for the rears. It really is a great unit at a great price. the ripspeed Halfords one over here costs nearly the same money i got this for!
-
So finally got the new head unit in and new facia in. I went for the Clarion VRX578RUSB. Does basically everything you would need from a headunit. Tried to re-use the AutoLeads Facia adapter i had off my ol Pioneer headunit but it wouldn't seem to fit around my new HU so its sort of snapped a bit in the install process! So i decided to give the original Toyota facia adapter a go. i heard it was an exact match to the finish of the rest of the dash so should blend in nicely. The only thing i don't like about it is that once you have cut the blanking plate to size, you loose the cubie hole that the Autolead facia adapter. But after further consideration, the amount of extra cabling on the new headunit would leave no room to fit a cubby hole!! A few pics:

Very nice tezza matey and welcome to the LOC :D
Nice car feeler, i want your speedo!

this might sound dumb, but whats the difference, if any, in a cat-back system and a backbox??
do you get an extra pipe (middle pipe) with the cat-back??cat-back
both the same, both refer to the section after the catalytic convertor section. IS and altezza are different from here forward as far as i know. Where is everyone buying these exhausts from TDI?
-
mine came as a cat - back box. will this still fit directly on the tezza and visa versa?
yep
-
Alrite the experts!!
Please can you give me some suggestions on how to do the above and whats the best solution to my question.
Cheers
Roheel
you need something like this you splice into the sub part of the wiring going to your rear speakers and this then gives you 2 RCA connections you can hook up an amp and sub
-
As Sonnet says, there is no application listed any Lexus so i cant see it working on all models as there is at least 4/5 different connection types and sizes between all the models of IS from 98-05 . they offer a full refund if it doesnt fit, so might be worth a try for those interested

So in the process of trying to fit my new Clarion VRX578RUSB headunit. problem is when i stick in a dvd player to watch, only the audio is displayed. Manual says i need to hook up the parking brake lead to the handbrake? Anyone know how to do this? Basically i want the screen to be able to display dvd all the time regardless of the position of the handbrake
from what i recall you just attach it to a ground point and it will work fine.. however it may be illegal??
only if I look at it!! Its for my passengers!

How much for the blonde?
New Headunit

yep as Wozza said the blanking plate can be removed and cut to size. or totally removed for double din. Hard to cut the plastic straight though. I heat up a stanley blade and cut along the edge of a steel ruler. only cost me 50 euro for it from toyota
