Even though we are unlikely to be able to get such a system would you kindly post a picture of your dash so we can all see the differences. Does it allow voice entry and use the steering wheel controls?

I can't post pictures for some reason. Maybe later I'll put them up somewhere and link to them. The steering controls for audio and calls all work but there's no voice entry.

On start-up, the aftermarket unit shows "Fujitsu Ten" before showing the menu. It's not as slick as the original navigation unit but it's a heck of a lot cheaper, here anyway. Radio stations and CDs can be selected using center console buttons but changing folders on USB storage mean touching the screen - a bit dumb and dangerous when driving because the screen is a long reach away.

Hi all! I've been looking for an aftermarket solution as well, and found this: http://www.catecglobal.com/Car-GPS-n...2014_p302.html. Anybody has any feedback as to this product, or have any other alternatives?

The factory Navi screen on the ES is much too far away for touch screen. Once you get used to the remote touch it is not all bad. If the screen were close enough, I still would prefer touchscreen, but there is something to be said for the larger high mounted screen.

Has anyone checked the aftermarket navigation + rear view camera + dvd + mirror (phone) + touchscreen + other features in the LEX300-D3. You can watch the video at
. It looks very nice but I don't know if this product works for US

I used to hate the remote touch but it grows on you after awhile. At least the screen stays clean and there isn't any glare. I find the nav on my new ES much better than the one on my RX.
