Sharing this with anyone interested in radio upgrade.
I have recently installed an android “Tesla” screen in my 06 lx470. I haven’t seen any other alternatives from name brands that have integrated hvac controls so I went with Chinese unit.
Pros:
it is the latest unit and has newer android os, more ram and 6 core processor.
HVAC controls do work
Plug and play with the exception of rear cam ( see cons)
Runs very smooth, no lag whatsoever
Integrated steering wheel controls
Factory cd changer support in case you still use em
Lots of feature with multiple camera support that allows side camera to be turned on with turn signal.
cons:
No instructions at all, had to email vendor
Trim panel color doesn’t match factory ( can be ordered with grey land cruiser filler panel instead of wood)
No rear factory camera integration, although I can make it work. Will update once done
Made in China
Take some tweaking to get good quality audio but it works with mark levinson systems.
Overall I’m pretty happy with it. Way better then Stone Age factory system.
Im committed to buy 9 more units in case LC owners here are interested. I paid $659 for my demo and promised $599 for the remaining units.
