You don’t need it since it’s wireless, but it’s good to have just incase you need an additional port to charge your car or if you let someone borrow your car and they want to use carplay or android auto functions without going through the setup for wireless connection
Great video Eric, Can this product be shipped to Australia and does it have compatibility for RHD models? 2016 Lexus IS 350 F Sport w/ Nav. Identical to the model in the video just RHD. Thanks!
Yes we can ship to Australia and it’s compatible with RHD models. Please email us for a quote info@beatsonicusa.com with photo of your screen and joystick controller
Hi do you have screen only upgrades for 2014-16 IS for larger screen, i.e. 10.3" with higher resolution ? i.e. swap the old for new screen only without the wireless Carplay etc? Thanks
You will experience the exact same audio quality as you do now as the audio now routes to the car’s Bluetooth. You also have the option to using the car usb direct connection for better audio quality
It would just be a monoblock amp to run a single subwoofer. Is there extra harness that allows to run RCA’s for that aftermarket sub and amp? Or would I still have to get a line out converter?

I notice in some videos, you mention not bothering with the AUX connector, as the new units send everything through the factory bluetooth, but you don't mention that for the IS version. Are we ok to skip the AUX cable?
can I buy this if my factory head unit is currently stuck on a boot loop?how long does the shipping take ? im in Chicago IL does this come with the monitor also or will I be using the monitor that comes with the car ?
Unfortunately you'll need to fix the factory head unit first before installing our Wireless S-Connect Interface as it uses the factory radio and display unit.
Just curious and want an honest answer but does the car audio lose quality? Because all the Apple CarPlay aftermarket products I’ve seen for the IS 350 people have said the audio quality tends to go down a little bit.
You won’t lose audio quality with our kit since we use lexus Bluetooth audio out. You will use the lexus Bluetooth system for audio. You can even use the lexus usb input for audio as well
@@BeatSonicUSWait WHAT? Bluetooth will always give you worse audio quality. You will lose audio quality if you use bluetooth, you need to stay wired for the best quality.
Does this head unit work with a subwoofer? Im gonna add a subwoofer to my lexus but is it compatible with your guys head unit? I dont know much about cars @BeatSonicUS
@@BeatSonicUS yes, and sometime won't even go on. I've called all audio installers and there is no replacement. Per dealership there is 18 variations for a 2014 is250
Hello I got a problem with my stock radio head unit, it kept restarting in a loop over and over until now says “consult with a dealer”. Everything’s still stock on it, do you think this will fix that issue?
Unplug your battery for 30 minutes and see if that don't fix it Lexus sent a update to all vehicles a while back what you need to do is reset to where the update is no longer there
Hello I need your help , my radio need to be replaced because it’s not working so is the screen dash , so can I install something like that and solve the problem?
@ I disconnected the car battery to reset the radio. After doing so no issues with the joystick. I hit the same bump every morning on my way to work and the joystick would go out. Ever since me disconnecting the battery no issues when I hit the same bump. Please keep this in mind if someone else have the same problem I used to have.
Jesus Christ…that wasn’t complicated at all…lol You must be a f¥€£ing engineer! I’ll stick to my factory radio. Or pay someone to do this at some point. That was way too much work for me to try and do! Thanks for demonstrating…you made it look easy…for someone as smart as you. Unfortunately that’s NOT me!!!
You guys are always adding new stuff. Way to go. Looking forward to 2015 LX compatibility.
Working on it!
Extremely helpful, suitable for my right hand drive Lexus too, thanks!
My pleasure!
Why do you need the usb extention cable? Could you just use the stock one inside the center console?
You don’t need it since it’s wireless, but it’s good to have just incase you need an additional port to charge your car or if you let someone borrow your car and they want to use carplay or android auto functions without going through the setup for wireless connection

Is there a way to run RCA’s for a aftermarket amp & subwoofer? And does the joystick work with no issues while using CarPlay?
Depends on your amplifier and subwoofer. Using the factory joystick is how you also use our interface system. It will continue to work as normal.
It would just be a monoblock amp to run a single subwoofer. Is there extra harness that allows to run RCA’s for that aftermarket sub and amp? Or would I still have to get a line out converter?
