Its a shame that this didn't happen for the 01+ GS, but in a way it work out for me I picked up a 07 IS 250 over the weekend.

NemeGuero, trust me man I was wanting this sooo bad.

Looking around I found other one of CL vendors also sells FlyAudio, www.carlighttrends.com I had pick-up some Garax Bulbs from them looks like they got good pricing. I might give them a call since they are in the South Florida area also.

My car is in for service at the dealership..

I'm not too impressed with the IS250. (2009)

I got it as a loaner car.

100% dead.

Petition will not do anything.

I have begged, pleaded, and offered sexual favors.

They just aren't having it.

Yeah, Give me a week or so to get everything together and I'll definitely do a write-up and some video.

Its basically the same as the IS model except it doesn't have AC controls. I haven't wired up the GPS yet because my antenna is too short.

You have to bypass the factory amp (like for any other HU install) and you will need a new sub and aftermarket amp.

I also ditched the CD changer cuz its kinda pointless.
