Hi everyone, I am Paul from teesside - Paul12001 - 21-12-2022

Hi all, I have. Lexus sc430 which I love and want to modify it to bring it to the 21st century Smile


Hi everyone, I am Paul from teesside - Sparkystav - 21-12-2022

Welcome!


Nice motor, what sort of things you after for it?

Upgrading the stereo, electronics etc?

Sparkystav Welcome!


Nice motor, what sort of things you after for it?

Thanks for the welcome!
Yes the electronics, I've upgraded the phone system with parrot mk9100 and have put an I simple in as well with reverse camera, but since upgrading my iPhone from 4 to 6 cannot plug the iPhone in and play music videos or use the sat nav from the phone on the navi screen , so all I am using is the Bluetooth for music and phone.
I've seen rabsters post and his mod looks perfect with the PC running through the touchscreen and having new sat nav pushed through the screen.
That I would be my first mod if I could find someone clever enough to install, then I want to put in the remote roof opening with remote start....
The kit I've used previous was from usa , four products, one from vais technology , one parrot connector , I x I simple for iPhone 4 and below and navtool
So if anyone could point me in the right direction , thanks well in advance!
Paul

An aftermarket alarm could easily control the roof off a fob.

As for the iPhone on the screen could a lightning to hdmi, then hdmi to vga adapter not work? That could then input to your screen?

Alternatively you can get lightning to 30 pin adapters have you tried that to see if it works?


Hi everyone, I am Paul from teesside - Paul12001 - 22-12-2022

Thanks yes that sounds like it would work with the roof and the remote start
After seeing the touchscreen mod though I don't think I would be happy with the solution I had with the phone in the glove box

The hardest thing is finding someone who is willing to work on the lexus electrics with aftermarket equipment
So any recommendations are more than welcome Smile

Rabster does do work on them but your a bit far away from him.

Yep Looks like a 4. 1/2 hour drive each way !
I've messaged him so I'll see what he says
If something can be done I don't mind driving my car, when I bought it I picked it up from Swindon .....Smile
