  3. hey everyone another quick solution while stocks last, Aldi is selling a bluetooth transmitter/receiver similar to the above for $30. Came out last week so you need to be quick. i am using it in my car and its awesome for a cheap solution. Link: http://www.aldi.com.au/au/html/offers/2827_19405.htm disadvantage: you must turn it on when you jump in the car and it is a rechargable battery (lasts up to 11hrs) (not sure if i can keep it on charge, will try and report back)
  4. I rang lexus spare parts and they want $1,100 for the one headrest, what an absolute joke. Please someone tell me where i can get my hands on one. Thank you

  6. Hey, Unfortunately just the phone. Dont you worry i will be trying all sorts of combinations and try to discover the gps override lol....i better record myself this time i think lol
  7. Hey Akuma, Raoul hasn't disabled the bluetooth / telephone menu as such.He has disabled the protection that had been enabled so that you can now access it whilst you are driving. (If that makes sense)!! In simple terms, he can now access that functionality whilst the car is in motion!! What screen were you in at the time Raoul?? Hey ProjectIS, I do remember using the volume menu but i think i also tried in another menu. The thing is i was pressing all over the screen, diagonally, up and down and even holding my finger in the in one position for at least 30 seconds ...i had absolutely no idea that the bluetooth protection will be disabled. The whole time while i am thinking a secret menu will pop up but nothing happened. Didn't even realise it till the next day. If i knew in what combination i was pressing on the screen i would be more be than happy to tell everyone but i cant remember :( PS: i couldnt reply to pm the other day, limit 1 per day?, anyway installed intake and car sounds very nice now, i am happy.. :)
  8. Hello Everyone. I hope everyone is well. This post is to tell everyone that there is a way to disable the telephone/bluetooth menu without installing an overide button switch. The unfortunate thing is I wouldnt have a clue how I did it. All i remember is that one day i was pressing on the screen of the sat nav in the volume menu and possibly another menu. I was pressing in the corners of the screen randomly, diagonally first then up and down. No menu came up and in fact i thought nothing happened until the next day I was shocked to see that telephone/bluetooth menu was disabled while driving. All functions were available. The amazing thing is this function is now permantly disabled. The idea came from the original posts on how to overide the gps while driving by pressing on the screen in the volume menu. My lexus is an 08 model and it is well known that this trick does not work 07 and later models. I have tried it many times and never worked just as everyone else experienced. But every now and then i think to myself "i wonder if i press on the screen in other combinations and in different menus". Well, thats exactly what i tried many times before on different occasions and nothing happened until few days ago. I just wonder if there is a secret combination to also disable the gps permantly. I know i am going to try over and over again until i discover it :)
  9. don't tell me you were there? Cevu, Welcome back mate, hope u had a good time....mate all jokes aside but this incident with you is very serious, i would not take it lightly. I would be hard on Lexus...i know they would not give you another car but if this happens again and GOD forbid you have to take someone to court, that is extremely dangerous. You have a wife and kids, mate you have yourself even to worry about in such situation. At this stage i would keep all info, pics, logs etc of this incident, just in case. When i had my first lexus which was written off by a taxi, my tyre popped as i was driving on the M2, i was doing 100km/hr, i started swerving everywhere, lucky no one was next to me. Luckily not long after i had the car replaced by GIO cause of the rite-off accident. I hope it goes well for you. something occured to me, just make sure they dont try to blame it on you, saying you modified your car, played with wires etc, i know it has nothing to do with it but these guys will do anything to get out of trouble... Good luck mate...

  14. Hi Guys, Has anyone managed to burn that hybrid dvd for the nav overide?.... I tried a few times but it didnt work....it then occured to me that maybe i just insert the old version disk (v12) into the system. turns out the dvd loads up but you cant do the volume/overide...so my conclusion is that it doesnt matter if you burn a new dvd with the old loading.kwi file, its the system itself... I have a camery 06 and a lexus 08, the camry Denso system is version 1610 and the lexus is 16b2, two different systems... you can do the diagnostics trick on the camry as well and it comes up exactly the same as the Lexus...no buttons missing or added, exactly the same.....so with that said i think that you would need an older version of the Denso Nav system for the overide to work. if anyone experienced different and has got this to work please let me know, i am happy to supply both versons of the disk if you feel it would help....
  15. Well done finding the menu, haven't had a close look at it yet, but I will in the morning. Where did ya find it?? CL?? I cant actually remembere where, i dont thing it was CL, i think toyota forum....
