Just updated to 3.19 looks like GROM changed the launcher GUI. Looks a lot better!

@eddie420 thanks! silly iPhone upload..
@jdpdata I set my default color for the Lexus OEM to brown and black. I guess with the cursor over on the VL2 side with these settings it looks better than the default blue scheme.

@bob256K I'm asking about your background wallpaper that looks like Stainless Steel. It seems to cover the entire screen, both right and left side? How did you do this? You have a 2015 F Sport like me right?
In Lexus OEM Infotainment, I can only change the Startup and Screen Off images. I can't find where to change the entire wallpaper background.

@Jdpdata ohhh, let me check; i'll take pictures next time I hop in the car. the OEM infotainment can be pretty good, in some use cases. I still really like the fact that the OEM GPS will display each upcoming exit, along with whether that exit has gas, a Hoel, food, etc. I still haven't found a maps app that does that, neither google, apple, or Waze.

@eddie420 are you talking about removing the center console and mounting the VL2 under the center console box where the lighter outlet and usb inputs are , or mounting it in the center console box?
Bob - here is mine mounted under the pull out tray in the center console. Fits perfect and frees up space in the glove box (wife uses it to store grocery bags). The power cable was just long enough - I wish I had 2 more inches. Ran the wires down the right side of the center console. As Eddie said - there lots of room there.

@whitfield I I might have to take a look at mounting it there... my VL2 is in the glovebox right now. Wherever I move it I am going to seriously investigate building a remote reset switch. I had to pull power to the VL2 yesterday which requires me to open the glovebox abs unplug one of the connectors. It rarely is needed nowadays but I'm getting tired of doing it, plus I usually need to pull over to do that.
@JDPDATA i didn't forget about the pictures of the screen settings , I just been really busy. Just got a loaner from Lexus thru enterprise for the fuel pump recall, my car wasn't acting up but I'd better be safe than sorry given my family does drive quite a bit even in the pandemic as my wife is an essential worker.
Really wish they would have had a Lexus dealer's car but alas; pretty much all new Lexus are affected so you can't drive them, and the ones that are fixed the dealer is trying to sell

No. I have had an active Li-on battery pack in there through the summer and all year around, no issues. Maybe Grom has operating environmental conditions listed somewhere, I have not bothered looking for them.
