Yep it works as advertised with exception of a few random issues that come up from time to time. Longer night drives ( > 1 hour) Mozart will randomly set the LCD from night mode to day mode. Correction is to turn off the lights / turn them back on which resets the LCD back to night mode Longer...

This is why they have those fancy leather chairs to sit in while drinking that latte they offered you while you ate that cookie. IYKYK

It's a brand new part that never got installed just sitting in the toolshed (wrapped in plastic for protection) Asking $200 + shipping costs (using buyer's choice)

Mozart zlink was used to create CarPlay with factory touch screen. A good signal came from there that was further cleaned up with the Mosconi before heading to the JL VXi for active tuning each channel. There is like a 12dB cut on some lows the 18s produce some serious pressure

This post in another thread gives a summary. The thing that really made the difference was the Resonix sound deadening / cabin noise reduction effort. At 85mph my truck is only 1 dB louder compared to a LX600 F-Sport (71 vs 70 db). Once I line the wheel wells to kill the A/T tire whine it’ll be...

Agreed. Once you nail the integration & get the tuning done it's all worth it. My path was to use a Mozart interface (it's using zLink / Andriod OS): Toyota Land Cruiser Apple CarPlay Upgrade (2016 - 2021) - https://mozartelectronics.com/products/toyota-land-cruiser-apple-carplay This...

Thanks for sharing this. I'm on the other side of a competition quality (IASCA) SQ build & have quite a few learnings from the process to share. Until I get the time for a post here are a few that might be useful to you ... - The JBL engineering on the speaker locations are EXCELLENT as-is. I...

You willing to part out those fancy Heritage lights & grill? Asking for a friend .... GLWS

You mean the rattle from a blown sub? Not sure. There's always the 'all in' option where you do something like my setup ... dual 18s in an isobaric setup? :-D

The faceplate foam gasket failed on my 2006; it had a Gulf States supplied spoiler on it too. Same repair guidance as with a legit light is required if that’s where water is observed to come into the cabin. Silicone is messy, and is why I wish I had hired a professional to do it looking back

Given the low production numbers of 2016+ 200-series, and the steady solid pricing for 2006-2006 100-series models, I don't see what everyone's worried about. Part of the appeal of these trucks are that they lack modern tech & complicated drivetrains. Waiting to buy a Land Cruiser means you're...

Update: learned there's no such control for volume on CAN bus. To bring back volume control we ended up adding a Mosconi RC-Mini for volume, an Alpine IR remote, and a PAC audio interface (no longer produced as of 2010) to wire up the steering wheel. The factory volume knob technically isn't...

So far it's pretty good. The shop in LA that imports these from China are pretty solid (see link to cross-post). There have been a few surprises. Namely the advertised RCA outputs aren't there & the kit changes were not communicated online or to the guys at Mozart. We managed to fix that by...
