Thanks everyone. I made some really good progress on this last night. I got the headunit all the way out and got to behind the navi unit. So far it's really easy.
Rom! You mentioned I had to remove the Navi screen since I do have ML... I'm confused what I need to access back there. Maybe because I just bought an SLI2up and not one of those fancy vais techs. There's only one mail plug on this harness... which goes into the headunit.
I will finish this tonight and put everything together.
Also! Can anyone confirm or deny the navi hack will work on my ls460 ML/Navi?? I did this on my gs430 ml/navi and i'd like to do it on this car too. I just want to be able to watch videos with car in motion, the navi over ride thing is kind of silly.

Ok! Vais Tech is all installed. Seems like it's good as my stereo and navi are currently working haha.
When I boot my car on the navi displays vais technology blah blah.
Does anyone know if I should us CD or MD or CD-MP3 emulation. I thought it was the last option but I can NOT get any beeps setting it up this way. Tricks??
Thanks!

mp3 emulation is what you should do. otherwise it won't show all the album and song titles on screen (when you go to audio tab)
for the beeping sound, do you have the navigation beep disabled on your car (one of the nav settings)? that could be why. but regardless, sometimes (rare) there are no beeps but the emulation goes well still. i don't know why, i say 95% of the time when i run emulation, i hear beeps. the other 5%, no beeps, but everything works perfect still

Hhaha. I had my navi beeps off. I turned them on this morning as soon as I got in my car and as I was backing out heard the vais tech beeping. ha. I will finish this tonight and put my car back together!
A million thanks to Rom as always.

I have the PS override tucked behind the NAV unit, there is enough space for that. For the ML+, like rominl suggested, a good spot is in the passenger footwell, behind the carpet, in a vertical orientation. That way, if you have to reprogram the unit, the toggle switches are easily accessible, all you have to do is remove that side trim piece. After everything is buttoned up, no one will know its there unless you tell them, it is only a slight bulge in the carpet.

Thank you guys... That's the last piece to my system. I will post the result once everything is done on this weekend. I think I gonna probably put the ML+ in the glove box for reason of detailing the inside. There is plenty of room in there anyway.http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...cons/icon7.gif
