Anyone heard from these guys in a while? I reached out and nothing back yet. Looks like the CCSS account hasn't been used since 2024?

Introduction This product is classed as an “Interface Kit" which basically means it’s a hardware kit that connects in parallel with your factory system. It provides a much needed "tech" upgrade that is severely lacking in what is otherwise an AWESOME vehicle! Many of our customers have said this...

If this is still the main thread for aftermarket units...
I installed the Grom Vline in my 2017 LC about a month ago. I live in the city/street park and this was easy enough for me to do in about 1.5 hours. Note they don't have a full video for the 2016-2018 LC, so you have to use the video for the 2015-2018 LX570 for the Grom Vline install and the video for the 2019-2021 LC for dash removal/reinstall.
When it works well, it's great... boots up really quickly/no noticeable lag over stock nav system and works totally seamlessly, including steering wheel controls and voice commands. That's about half of the time so far.
About a quarter of the time, it doesn't find my phone at all and I have to revert to factory nav/radio. A (car) restart may help correct the issue, but not always.
The other quarter of the time, the system works fine except there's no sound comes out of it, either from music sources or connected phone.
I'm stilling working through the gremlins (Gromlins...?). Support has been prompt each time thus far, and I'm trying to keep an open mind, but it's a little frustrating.
