Installed the Flyaudio unit and added a camera from another manufacturer. Didnt really care for the flyaudio reverse cam...wanted something that looked close to OEM. Some tips that werent mentioned on any of the other threads: when taking out the vents, stick a small flat head screwdriver in there and bend the tabs down. Search is250 vent removal on youtube. Theres one thats really good and shows exactly how to do it. Dont listen to him about prying on the dash though! If you havent had your dash replaced and your car is a few years old, you probably will damage the dash! Mines is only a little sticky but the slightest rub or nudge against the edges chipped off some of the dash! I was extremely careful because I was aware of it but still did a little damage. Overall, Im happy with the unit but have some minor complaints. The temp is either in C or you can select F but it starts at 92* as the coldest! David from CarlightTrends said they should be coming out with an update for this. The other thing is that the clock is only displayed on the main menu screen. Although all you have to do is push "menu" its still a hassle and should be displayed in every mode ie ipod, dvd, radio, etc. since they did not include a clock with this unit. Reverse cam mode on this unit is retarded IMHO. There are lines and guides that pretty much dont do any good unless you set up and angle the camera exactly how the flyaudio unit is set up. There are also two boxes in the corners that serve no purpose at all. Oh and thanks to David from CLT for answering my 10 million questions and shipping the unit out extremely fast! Here are some pics....

How do you like it so far? I just looked at FlyAudio's site and they really do not provide much detail on this system at all. Does this simply add GPS and backup cam functionality or does it replace the full headunit?

here is a link to where this entire thread should have been in the first place. I linked it to the page where I put the info for the back up camera. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...350-a-103.html

[QUOTE=NimaM;6878313]Where did you get the camera? Looks pretty nice.
Also, did you change any settings on the screen? Mine doesn't show the green trapezoidal lines in reverse mode and I only get the red dashed lines.[/QUOTE
Got it from eBay. Same one as the link above. It's not a really good camera but aesthetics were more important to me. I guess the green lines are from the camera? What about those 3 boxes? The warning and the two useless ones? Does yours have that?

I bought this camera and about to install it and I have a question for the ones who have installed this camera. Did you use the tool that came with the camera to cut out the hole in the trunk trim? I'm afraid if the trunk trim (or whatever it is called) is going to crack.
Any comment is appreciated.
