Robl45 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Hi, I understand from awhile back that their are two choices for ipod adapters. I have a 2006 rx400H with the navigation. I understand vaistech and coastal tech both have ipod adapters. Question is, which do people prfer? I know that the coastal tech one wouldn't work on the cars with rear entertainment system but not sure if that has changed. If anyone has any info about these units, please let me know. Thanks Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonystewart Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I prefer Vaistech adaptors, i have 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robl45 Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 yea, only problem with those is they don't get rid of all the annoying nag screens. Really leaning towards the costal product as it seems it now does with with the factory dvd. You can't change the map disc though or you lose some featueres.

tonystewart Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Nag Screen "I agree" is just part of the checklist for me when I startup, I have updated to v6.1 update in all our vehicles and the vaistech products were not affected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robl45 Posted July 14, 2007 Author Share Posted July 14, 2007 yes, the agree is not that bad, but not being able to do anyting while I drive is a nuisance, so if I can take care of the whole thing with one device, I'd like to, but getting ahold of coastal seems pretty tough.

tonystewart Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 The poor communications of Coastal that you describe could be a negative when you need customer service with an existing product. Vaistech customer service has been excellent with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if the VAISTECH and/or Coastal will work for the 2007 GS450h SE-L? thanks Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samos Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 How does install these adapters? The instructions for VAIS are quite explicit after the first sentence that says "Gain access to the back of your radio...". It sounds like something that a car mechanic would do, but can it be done easily by amateurs (such as myself)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me less intimidated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
