Default Toyota SAT NAV digital tv install VIDEO

A small video that shows the main functions of this new head unit touch screen, maybe some of you may be interested in this. Enjoy.

{edit}
For more info on this system and install photos visit my blog @ http://carblog.slusheed.com/turbosoa...screen-sat-nav...

This is a video clip showing some of the main functions and processing of my new wide screen touch screen sat navigation digital tv system installed in my JDM Toyota Soarer (Lexus SC300). One of the best units ever! Looks touchy only because I was trying to use the stick thing that came with the unit to go through the menus. Works great with your hands just like the latest mobile phones.

{edit}

Hope this answers any questions

Got it from an Australian ebay seller who has a factory in Sydney Australia.
Here is their link with various units available and similar pricing on all.

They also have 3D units

Doubt it, even most of every electronic you have is made in China, just put together elsewhere. I have owned Sony and copies from China in my other cars and they both have run the same for years with no problems. That's why I had no hesitation to buy again.
Anyway the screen etc is from Hitachi
"Newest HD Digital screen 800×480 TFT LCD, Fast response & bright. High quality from Hitachi"
Plus GPS operation is "Operation system : Win CE 6.0"
That's how the big companies get you, with fear

Well I have used many GPS and this is by far one of the best I have ever used. Very close to factory brand sat navs in cars. For brands I trust, I'm not really sure, anything that I have been able to compare to big brand names that runs like it is good enough. If that is it, all you are doing is paying a huge lump sum extra for the name. I know countless people first hand who have bought the biggest and best, and have had failures with the software or system or screens within a year. I too have bought the best but usually through Sony and never had any issues.
