Hi Bob, followed your instructions for the BeatSonic system, the one change I made was installing a usb port where the 12v power supply is located in the console. I moved the 12v port to the blank location in the glove box, it actually takes the factory 12v port without modification. There is also a blank in there for a standard Toyota switch. While moving the 12v plug may not work for everyone’s needs, it may be good content to show how to access and install switches/power points in this hidden switch panel.
Bob, just joined the GX club and stumbled across your channel. My first priority is getting this Beatsonic system. Thanks to your video, I think I can do it. Take care.
Follow your steps and did the install. Getting the radio section back in was a challenge and took me a frustrating hour. Apart from that all went well. Thank you for providing such helpful content.
Bob thank you. This is the third install video of yours that have helped me immensely! Your diy beat sonic install saved me about $500 (local installer price) and gave me the confidence to tackle the project. Thank you!
Thanks Bob! Tackled this today on our 2015. For me the most intimidating part was pulling the trim pieces off. I was pretty sure I could figure out the wiring (though your instructions at the desk helped make the faster too), but I didn’t want to accidentally break a trim piece trying to figure out how to disassemble. Great video and install went smoothly!
After i've removed the radio a few hundred times, i learn thru trial and error. Trust me, i've scratched my fair share of parts while making these videos.
I just installed the unit in my GX. I followed your video every step of the way. Thanks man! For the life of me I don't know how you installed the stereo portion so fast. It took forever to adjust the wiring for it to fit.
I have the new 23 GX. it comes with a carplay but it’s a wired mode only. i am absolutely pissed off as to why Toyota would half-assed this!! i hope someone releases a solution in the near future to remedy this. current solutions are bluetooth only and most of them have a lag. this is very noticible when a passenger is watching youtube or netflix during travels. audio / video doesn’t sync. other solutions require audio bypass via RCA cables which potentially impacts the sound quality on our expensive Mark Levinson systems. i hope someone releases a wifi based solution that solves this. really disappointed with the the half-asses solution Toyota has put out after YEARS of people requesting this feature. Your videos are always soooo entertaining. love it!
@@GXBOB too funny, as usual! My 2015 GX has 96k mikes. The dealer tells me to replace my PCV valve. $568. My GX runs perfectly. Do you believe this really needs replacing? Thanks!!
Unlike your masterful skills, I’m not that good at my own repairs. I was just confirming this is a legit thing to do. The part is cheap, it’s the labor. I’m due for service so I’ll ask them to take care of the valve. Thanks, Bob. Keep up the helpful videos!!
I'm glad you finally upgraded. I've really enjoyed mine except for one recurring issue which is phone call quality. Even with the provided workaround I'll be told by people on the other end of the line they can barely hear me.
hmmm....i use my phone all the time and the sound quality is just fine. I don't know what to tell u except to start messing around with all your settings and check your oem microphone?
That was an amazing installation video! I watched the Beat Sonic installation video last month and yours was ten times more impressive! Thank you! I have a question for you. Is there a hack available to show a digital speedometer on a 2017 GX460? When I turn on my radar equipped cruise control, a digital speed selector is displayed so I’m wondering if the normal speed is available. Thanks GXBob!
Been waiting for you to do this. By the way Beatsonic wants $200 to install Car Play at their shop in La Mirada. I’ll give it a go now. But whats all those cream and squirt bottles in your door storage area. LoL Anyway welcome back after a long break.
Great video, Bob! 👏🏼 I’ve been waiting for this install video for moooooonths! I was hesitant to pick one without seeing your video & mini-review, and confirmation how it works when connecting wirelessly. You’re the best! Buying this now ASAP! Oh, and Congrats on your new iPhone background image. 🎉
Thanks dude. I'm glad it will help you tackle the task. Just dont' forget to flip dipswitch #1 down. NOt sure if i emphasized that in the video. Beatsonic's video also emphasized flipping dipswitch #1 down. Thanks for watching.
Another awesome and informative video by GXBob. Are you still using this Beat Sonic unit? I thought I saw a video you posted recently that looked like you had the factory unit back in but I could be wrong. I'm just thinking of buying the Plug and Play one for my GX. A guy in the GX forum however kept taking about the "GROM" being terrible, but I'm not sure what he is referring to? Does he mean the Grommet are is the "GROM" short for something else? I'm not super car audio savy but know enough however I can't seem to think og what he means by "GROM"?
@@devanrogers3133 hey Devan 👋. Grom and Beatsonic are 2 different companies that make CarPlay for your GX. I do not have an opinion on Grom as I have never owned or had the chance to play with one. I’ve only owned Beatsonic and very happy with its functions and features. I currently have the Beatsonic installed but will soon remove it to prepare for another up coming video in about 2 weeks. I will not be reinstalling it because my new modification doesn’t accommodate an aftermarket CarPlay system. Thanks for your question. 🍷
I've never owned one for the 2010-2013 but i can't understand why it would be any different than the 2014 and up. The only difference in navi units is your bottom oem radio has a sliding panel while the 2014 and up is exposed. While i had it on my 2017, i thought it was a really solid and reliable carplay system with no issues i've come across while owning it. I wouldn't hesitant on keeping it if i didn't update my navi screen to the 2023.
welcome back buddy boy. looking forward to a long term review from you. i would hate having to go through all this shit and encounter software issues later.
Not sure if u are following my channel but i have replaced it with a navigation screen upgrade with my latest video. Before the upgrade, Beat-Sonic worked very well and i recommend it to anyone who wants to add to their OEM unit.
Video was perfect, and I've been loving Android Auto on my 2015... Really appreciate the time you put into this vid. My only issue is the Beat-sonic won't automatically toggle the day/night (white/dark maps), so if I turn the headlight off/on quickly it will then switch to dark mode.
i rather you spit out coffee and not cum, that would have been a funnier comment. Yes, i still use my carplay and it works like a charm. I mostly use if for WAZE app.
This video is next level!!! Installing tonight likely. Glad I waited to install and saw this video. Planning on running wired USB to blank on right side of steering wheel. Does wired carplay jack also charge phone?
Did you notice Beat-Sonic Web Site states for LGVIF-CB2W "GX models are not compatible" ? What gives.... Figured it out.... Beat-Sonic LGVIF-CB4W Wireless S-Connect Interface for Select 2014-2021 Lexus GX 460 and 2016-2018 Toyota Landcruiser. Your captions show "...CB2W".... even all five fingers in each hand you can still make mistakes.. Love your channel. - Great work!
Great video Bob, as usual.. Off-subject, was wondering if u explored or give any thoughts for any possible solution on CAN invaders car theft. Main targets are Toyotas and Lexus. Thank u Bob for your time..
Doe your GX have adaptive cruise control? If so, I have the ultimate mod project in mind. Maybe this is something you maybe able to pioneer. I have installed Comma AI on my unsupported truck (Ram 3500). It’s similar to tesla autopilot. Only prerequisites are: Adaptive Cruise Control and Electric Power Steering. GX is only hydraulic steering as you know. Electric steering upgrades are done all the time. Plus, many upgrade their steering racks to either Tundra or LandCruiser all the time. This got me thinking… 22 and up tundras have lane centering w/ electric power steering. Why can’t we mod the GX with the new Tundra / Sequoia steering rack and gain full utopilot feature? If anyone can pave the way, it would be you!
Hmm....Interesting. I'm so excited that I could get one for mine, and after clicking into that link, the website clearly says "Vehicles not listed including but not limited to Landcruiser and GX models are not compatible." 😑
Thanks for all of this, I did the same setup as you did. However I noticed that it reseted a couple of times. I was wondering if it's due to unit behind the system that might caused it to overheat? Not sure if you came across that yet.
No mine doesn’t reset. It has been working fine since the install. Only thing i can think of is a loose connection somewhere. Might want to ensure all your plugs are tight.
Bob, I'm experiencing two problems with my 15' GX, maybe it's easy for you but I'm about to go crazy: 1.-My car leans to the right if you see it from behind, in this regard I found that there are a service bulletin indicating to replace the left shock absorber spring. Do you know something about it? and 2.- Why the hell the rear speakers are heard very slowly, I already checked the balance and everything is perfect but the rear speakers are hardly heard compared to the front ones with which you can have a party. Do you have that problem?
1. You have what is known as the KDSS lean. You most likely have a leak in the system causing that. Doesn't matter if you change all your shocks or springs, you'll still get the lean. Your Lexus dealer might do a one-time courtesy to fix it for you if you have a good relationship with your dealership. 2. If you are truly an audiophile, replace the oem piece of sht amp under the seats and all your speakers.
Hey Bob! Is it still sold after using it? Any lagging, slowness, disconnect issue? I love to buy it but I had Vline and it gave me a hard time until I removed it, it even rebooted while I’m driving and caused the check engine light come on, it went away after I turn off the car and turn it back on though.
Hi Bob, I have a Apple CarPlay installed in my GX 460 but is using old wire to plug in. If I want to change your wireless do I have to buy a new Nother unit or just buy some pad to transfer?
i really don't know enough about the 24 to do an honest comparison. The only thing you can do is just read up on the different reviews posted on line and go into the dealership to test drive one. I really love the current model up to 2019 but the later years do have nicer consoles. Don't know much about the reliability and characteristics of the newer engines.
That’s what your fuse box is for! Not on a serious note i haven’t heard or read anyone capping anything or having the car blow up due to a bad install. There’s no guess work involved meaning every plug fits into their respective home. You can’t mix match anything by mistake. If something has to be forced it means a pin is bent and should be straightened out.
I would think not because the BeatSonic usb connector gotta directly to the BeatSonic unit but then again this is also a wireless system so you really don’t need to hard wire it
Nostradumass....hahahahha i just noticed your username. So, i never got to test it out because i pulled my front camera system off because i did not want a clutter of crap with one accessory on top of more accessories. I prefer to do clean installs from start to finish and make it less complicated for viewers to follow. Imagine if i had the front camera wiring installed while installing the carplay for people that don't own the front camera...know what i mean? So i wasn't able to test your question out to prove it. But all i could say is the inputs and outputs of each system is independent of each other. Meaning, we are not y-splitting media inputs/outputs to share signals. We are only tapping into the source for power and ground for each system to function.
Great and a very informative video but you skipped the part where you install4d back the radio system. I thought that was a little funny, seeing you said you never skip any steps.😅😅👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💕
Technically i didn’t. Reverse process of something i already did is redundant but i do get where you’re coming from. That would make a 1 hour video into 2 hours of yawning .
Jajjajajjajaja!!! Canada. By the way, I noticed that hammer fire there. Well done sir. Can’t see it well from distance. Beretta? HK? Sig? Nice seeing you Bob. Stay safe brother.
That’s an excellent question! I have no means to test that out due to me removing my front camera for another project I’m working on but I would reach out to Beatsonic and ask.
In addition to holding the nav button, you can hold the Next Track button on your steering wheel to jump into the beatsonic system... Discovered that accidentally.
that is good to know, thanks.
Great to see a new vid. Welcome back GxBob. Hope all's well and good. Great stuff as usual. Thanks for posting. The Best Gx460 channel on the Tube.

Hi Hung. No I don’t use any apps that require audio except for Waze. Might want to hit up Eric from Beat-Sonic.
Thanks GX Bob for a prompt reply. Just wonder how your waze works with your Car Player. Are you using your Car Player for navigation lately?

great video as always, would love to see an aftermarket (greenyi) 1080P ahd 360 around view camera in the future 😁🙏🏻
Sounds doable
Does anyone know if the rear backup camera still work with this install? Couldn’t find an answer on the site
Not sure why it wouldn't. Both components are independent of each other. I currently run the Carplay and have no issues with my oem backup camera.
@@GXBOB thanks for responding! Just want to say you’re the reason why I have been so confident doing these mods in my gx460. I appreciate all you do!
Amazing man thanks 🙏 allot
Does the beat sonic front camera harness still work with this?
Nostradumass....hahahahha i just noticed your username. So, i never got to test it out because i pulled my front camera system off because i did not want a clutter of crap with one accessory on top of more accessories. I prefer to do clean installs from start to finish and make it less complicated for viewers to follow. Imagine if i had the front camera wiring installed while installing the carplay for people that don't own the front camera...know what i mean? So i wasn't able to test your question out to prove it. But all i could say is the inputs and outputs of each system is independent of each other. Meaning, we are not y-splitting media inputs/outputs to share signals. We are only tapping into the source for power and ground for each system to function.
Can you listen to your factory XM and view CarPlay on the screen at the same time?
Yes you can, but you won’t hear turn by turn directions and Siri replies
@@BeatSonicUS can you send the link for this? The link Brother Bob posted doesn’t show any compatibility with GX???

Hey so my Gx starts on key and it turns off when I open the door.
Is there anyway to customize this and keep the car running while I open the door

Great and a very informative video but you skipped the part where you install4d back the radio system. I thought that was a little funny, seeing you said you never skip any steps.😅😅👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💕
Technically i didn’t. Reverse process of something i already did is redundant but i do get where you’re coming from. That would make a 1 hour video into 2 hours of yawning .
Jajjajajjajaja!!! Canada. By the way, I noticed that hammer fire there. Well done sir. Can’t see it well from distance. Beretta? HK? Sig? Nice seeing you Bob. Stay safe brother.
Beretta Storm 9mm. i keep it by my side because every time i am shooting a video, my neighbor's kid runs over and calls me a fag.
@@GXBOB jajajaajajjaja! Take care brother.
Made me a fan!
Really? You will only lose brain cells watching my vids.
Great job Bob!
Thanks Kevin! 😃
UA-cam, or any streaming app?
i haven't been able to add youtube. might be a liability thing. I am still trying to figure out a hack.
Hi my friend can you tell me 2014 lexus gx 460 fuel filter, where is it?
Inside the fuel tank
@GX*BOB thanks , my friend my car sometime hard to started the engine can tell me what's problem on it please thanks.
can i install this with the beatsonic front camera interface?
That’s an excellent question! I have no means to test that out due to me removing my front camera for another project I’m working on but I would reach out to Beatsonic and ask.
Awesome Bob, thanks!
Right on! Thanks for watching.
How is the sound quality of this unit Bob?
I don’t have the mark levinson so my audio quality wasn’t the best to begin with but other than that it sounds exactly the same as my oem.
Love your bonus video hahahaha
ugh....i can't watch it man. I have a new video coming out soon that will explain.
Sad 😢 mine came with no nav 😢 any suggestions?
yes, go on alibaba and buy either the tesla screen or the new 2022 head unit.
59:30 That's the stuff of NIGHTMARES!!!! WTF BOB???? 🤣🤣🤣
Don't knock it till you try it buddy.
Nice gun.
What gun
@@GXBOB the one next to the clip. What clip? The one next to the G…..
@@sxirs oh that gun. Yeah my parole officer said i can start using it again
@@GXBOB You've got a nice PO, mine wouldn't be so forgiving....Oops! she's looking over my shoulder as I type. Gulp!
It’s not my KID!!! 😂😂😂
well....c'mon now. The average kid over there makes 12 cents an hour in a country where the annual take home is $4 for a doctor. It's a win win.
GX Bob!!
Yo yo yo wazzzzzap
Are you 100 percent sure this will work with the 2013 ?

@@GXBOB Soooo....you updated the vid. 2013 No-Go. Waaa-waaa-waaa-waaaaaaa....👎👎👎
For the rest of the video I kept thinking about that guy with the missing fingers
Dude. I’m glad you got value out of the video.
@@GXBOB would you make a video about that experience
😂😂😂😂 fantastic Bob...!!!
Oh my god! The ending is almighty hilarious!! Don't stop......thanx!!
The chick that got the part was amazing. She could suck a basketball thru a garden hose.
I freaking love you
I want to love you too but I’m not a slut

Bob we gotta get you some hollow points!
I don’t believe in violence
Let's do that wifeswap Bob!
As long as your wife is between the ages of 19-20 because 18 is too young and that would be immoral.
Nice video. iphones blow.
they do. But its a love hate relationship.
They state the GX models are not compatible?! "Vehicles not listed including but not limited to Landcruiser and GX models are not compatible."
This kit is made specially for the GX and Landcruiser
Sonic LGVIF-CB2W is the right one for GX460 2012 - 2021? The website says not compatible.
