See post 41. This was my car after the vents had been trimmed. Zero gap, and I haven't butchered my dash!

Haha well I got them! Only being able to buy these pre cut vents, means ill buy the nav, otherwise I'd have bought the flyaudio unit or nothing at all as I would be useless at cutting them vents myself!

The vents ride in the trunk of my car until I buy the nav, ill take pictures over the weekend and post the trims and cuts on this thread.

Is there anyway to acquire the .bmp files of a 2013 lexus navi?
That way we would be able to make a sick skin/theme for this unit, with the roadrover editor

I just got quoted $540 for unit, $25 for camera, $10 for GPS on sd card, $20 for PayPal fee, $45 shipping to UK

That's also from LSQ

Total $640 and I bought the vents in pic from M88JCP for $80

I haven't tried it yet, but you can open the lang.dll with a hex editor and edit out the words with spaces then you can change the text to say whatever you want with images in the menus.

Oh, and I saw your other post in that other forum, do you still have the radio.exe file or how can I get it? I wonder if that will work with mine (my version is 1.26.6 which is closer to the version of file they have). I think another option is to ask people that can change the radio locations to see what values are set in the config.ini file as they change them.
Hey could you explain me how to change the skins? And did you found some cool ones?
How is it going with your iphone interface?

thanks!

^ I think their time is +13 hours from EST, because I'm talking to one of them right now, for me its 9;51 PM EST and for them it's 10;51 AM

I know of someone that can give you guys a price for 580$, that price covers 4GB SD map card, paypal fees, and shipping, but if you want their rear camera it'll cost you another 20$. PM me if you guys are interested so I can give you guys the information to reach them.

You're right, I'm sorry. Just noticed the time stamp in my Skype while talking to another Chinese supplier..

You should be able to use this to get to the Windows CE desktop: http://www.china-rns.com/downloads/r...s-desktop-302/ Let me know if that doesn't work. You need to extract that and put it in the root of your SD card and then go to Options -> System -> Update. Once you're in the desktop you can go to My Device -> StaticStore -> D2280 -> Skins. There are 3 skins there. You can copy to your SD card and then edit and copy back.

You need Photoshop or something similar and be able to save in R5G6B5 bitmaps (this is important). I had work on the skin a little bit, but it's very time consuming, and I was looking for solutions to fix the vents fitting (which still doesn't fit well), the time display, and the temperature display. I had been using this skin here and copied some images: http://out-club.ru/board/showpost.ph...postcount=4901

I also looked at the Lexus document I attached here if you want to create your own base on Lexus's official branding.

so for those of us with an '07 who have not had the same success as you, why don't you please explain how WHICH TABS you sawed off? I sawed off every one and the vent does not fit like your picture posted.

Help us out here dude.

this unit fits an '06-'08, BUT THE newer vents do not. Don't be fooled by people saying they got it to fit, because they can't tell you HOW they got it to fit. Pretty much everyone here who's tried has the same gap issues. I don't believe the one person who posted pics saying they got it to work...mainly because they won't tell anyone specifically how they did it.
