Lexus CT200h Wired AND Wireless CarPlay Install
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
After having wireless carplay in my other car, I wanted to get one that's wired carplay to see the different. I personally would get the wired and wireless unit for all my cars from now on if I had to buy it again. The unit isn't perfect but for what I want it does the job. Overall I can't complain much. This Lexus CT200h definitely needed this unit because the old screen was giving out.
Comment below if you have this unit or something similar and share your opinions of how you feel about it !!
Thank you for checking out another video of mine. Please tell me what I can improve in anything possible.

No problem👍🏼. Made for us who what to try to install but are clueless 😂
Do you have a link for the head unit? Also, will the unit work on a '15 CT200h that does not currently have a screen or nav?
I wonder if you can hit that molding with a heat gun and just get it to go and fit a little better
Thanks so much for this video. It bugs the heck out of me not having Car Play in my 2012 CT w/ Nav (seems like we have the same year and model) since I got it. I have been searching aftermarket solution high and low for so long. I basically just gave up the idea. I have seen the same type of screen and even contacted one of its vendor before. But ended up not going for it, since reviews back then saying it was pretty buggy. Hopefully yours has latest firmware that resolved it. The other issue, I was hopping someone will come out another version of its trim. It's a touch screen. But the dash trim sits it back so far back, it's out of arms length. It kindda make it hard to use and defeat the purpose. If you find another dash trim that moves the screen forward, please do share. GREAT JOB!!!....THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Thank you for watching! Yea the screen isn't perfect but anything is better than the tiny screen. For the trim, there is none because there isn't room to move it up. With the wiring and etc it's not likely possible

No problem! I know a lot of people have or don't know how to solve the issue so that's why I included in the video
Hey dude, I got the exact same one. I've had a few problems the voice call audio won't run through the lexus oem mic nor if i plug in an external mic to the unit, it seems to use the mic on the unit itself at the front of the screen, If the phone says Carplay out when I make a phone call the external party hears me all garbled, however if I use the lexus oem mic by selecting "Car multimedia" instead of carplay, it's ok, and usuable however when Im in carplay the music will stutter particuarly when in built up areas near wifi/bluetooth interference, its the oddest thing, I feel the oem bluetooth should be deactiviated but the voice calls are fine that way, it seems to be one thing or the other Any ideas, the seller in china doesn't know.
Legend! Thank you! Couple questions, my back up camera is only using about half of the screen and has a Lexus logo on the side. How did you get it to display the full screen? Also has anyone added the Lexus logo for when the car starts up?

You have to go into something called BackUp Car or something like that in the unit. Basically settings for back up camera. I don’t remember which one it was but basically you can turn it off to do full screen

That’s really base on what you really want. I want a bigger screen but only way is replace screen so I have to buy aftermarket. If I only want CarPlay then I can get a module to use on OEM screen. So technically it is worth it because I can’t avoid the price unless bought used if that make sense 😅 sorry

Is it possible to remove the old CD after installing this new screen? I see no need for it and would rather put a much needed storage compartment in its place. Also after using it for awhile, how come the left part is not installed flushed into the dash?...there is a gap on the left lower lip .....

You can’t remove the old cd. The screen is just an extension of the radio unit but with CarPlay. The trim not sitting flush it’s only for my part. The trim could be a bit off so it would pop up sometimes. I could modify it to make it fit but I’m too lazy to

Жыл бұрын
Yes. With this or most unit, the audio source is from the aux plug from the wire harness they give you. They can not tap into the OEM source so this is the workaround. If you really don't care for it you can do the Bluetooth method in the video where you get audio for music but you can't hear any nonfiction or sounds from maps or etc.
