Wireless/Wired Android Auto Decoder Retrofit Kit for Lexus LX 570 Land Cruiser LC200, Support Wireless CarPlay, Upgrade OEM Monitor, Car Factory Control Method

Most important thing to know here is that you'll need to pretty much take your entire dash off to install this. Install instructions are non-existent. Managed to find a video on youtube with a similar unit being installed to see how to do it.Once installed, it does work well and is nice to have new tech/functionality but keep the stock look in the dash.

I like that the kit slides into a Lexus LX570 without changing the eight inch screen, so the dash still looks stock. Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto tidy up the console yet the USB port stays for quick charging. A long press on the Menu or Voice key flips back to the factory interface, handy for checking vehicle settings. Steering wheel buttons, parking sensors, and the original backup camera remain active, so nothing familiar disappears. MirrorLink and AirPlay cover everybody else's phones.

Two stars because it DOES workNo more stars because the cost is far too high to justify this.If you don’t ever bother with your vehicles AC or Heat, you’ll be fine as long as you NEVER need the climate settings again. This gives you CarPlay but REMOVES ALL OTHER OEM ABILITIESYou can touch and swipe and some stuff still works but you cannot switch to your climate settings, audio, or any other vehicle settings. Depends on how important those things are to you. Unfortunately, I haven’t to return this and get the BeatSonic so I can use my climate and other settings as well.

This unit is a decoder unit for 200 series LX and LC. It was pretty straightforward to install following the simple instructions. This unit allows for wireless and wired android auto which the factory unit does'nt have besides Bluetooth. It adds more modern features using the exisitng headunit, keeping a factroy look. You can still switch between the new OS and using the factory OS. I love the fact I can use wireless connection that is more stable and have a more modern navigation with real time traffic. Its much faster and has more optimized routes. It retains factory sound system so it still sounds great. Touchscreen is the same IPS/LCD screen. I would say its a nice unit to add more modern features without changing the entire unit which can affect the exisitng Mark Levinson sound system.

This wireless/wired Android Auto and CarPlay decoder retrofit kit is a great solution for Lexus LX 570 and Land Cruiser LC200 owners looking to modernize their infotainment systems without replacing the OEM screen. It retains the factory monitor and control interfaces, including steering wheel buttons, which is a huge plus for preserving the original driving experience.Installation is plug-and-play, requiring no wire splicing, which minimizes the risk of damaging existing systems. Once installed, switching between the factory interface and the CarPlay/Android Auto system is as simple as holding down the “Menu” or “Voice” button. It supports all essential functions such as voice control via Siri or Google Assistant, navigation, phone calls, messaging, and media playback.The system also supports Mirrorlink and AirPlay for screen mirroring, and remains compatible with OEM or aftermarket backup cameras and sensors. This adds convenience and flexibility, especially for drivers who want to retain features like PDC, factory DVRs, or 360° cameras.Overall, it’s a solid, non-invasive upgrade that brings modern smartphone integration to older Lexus and Toyota models while maintaining the feel and functionality of the original system. A worthwhile investment for anyone wanting to enhance connectivity without overhauling their dash. :)
