Can you guys post pics of the VSS wire? or where is it exactly located? I didn't hook mine up but it seems to work fine.

samsonpwnz: Which dash kit did you use in that pic? thx

jwcivic: If you goto the hardware info menu where it shows the status of the different connections you will get a reading under speed sensor if your car is moving. Its supposed to make the nav more accurate, especialy with a low gps signal. It also gives you the 3D hybrid mode, which I have to figure out how useful it actually is.
Here is the post i used to find the vss wire i hooked in to https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...0&postcount=25
And JLAM, i used the American International kit found here
http://www.americaninternational.net...ils.asp?ID=278
I actually picked it up locally at an audio shop for $20.

With the AVIC-D3 you can download your own images onto it. I just found some cool lexus logos on the avic411 forums and burned them onto a cd and presto! If i have some time this weekend I'll try and take some more shots, but there are so many menus. Is there something specific you wanted to see?
