Rust?

Yea the one crossover line with the heat wrap that gathers moisture. Waiting in line at Lexus of Calgary now because they can get me the line by Tuesday. $100 cad more than Amayama when shipping is factored in, but not waiting 2 weeks to get it in the road.

Sorry to hear, but doesn't sound too terrible. Whats the labor like to install it?

Ha, I missed that in the original post and had to go figure out what it was referencing. Very cool! And considering that I've been debating between a Mawl and a Wilcox Raid, this is heavily influencing my decision...

A lot of people debate this but when it comes to switchology the Mawl wins. It's simple and ergonomic. I have both but prefer the mawl for simplicity plus they're a local company here. Look up their new product - DAGIR, have known about it for awhile.

Where did you get the bumper and swingouts? I've only seen those on GX's.

I went with the Grom VLINE 2 Works really good for almost everything. OnX and other maps work great

I can't speak for the newer ones but I didn't lose anything. Works in paralel with the stock system and I can switch between both easliy. Only complaint is the start up time is a bit slow sometimes and the sound from the mic is not as clear on the receiving end of the phone calls. So I use the factory bluetooth for calls. Drove across the country with it and alternated between Apple Maps, Google Maps and Here Maps with no issues.

How has the audio been for music any issue there?

The wife has a new Sienna and bluetooth is instant but it takes a bit for CarPlay to get popped up even as OEM.

That’s cool though. Probably something I should look into. Is that one where you have to pull apart dash and pull the screen out?

It was installed by a friend so I'm not sure how long it took
