I am trying to find a decently priced yet functional aftermarket head unit (with CarPlay support) for a 2010 Lexus RX 350. The car in question has a monochrome display with a passenger airbag warning underneath as shown here and here. Does anyone have any suggestions, preferably from a reasonably reputable seller and/or site?

    I found that a certain unit by T’eyes which seems to be the most recommended on clublexus. Think I’m gonna go with that after I get confirmation that all of the required wiring harnesses would be present. Otherwise, the newest iPad I have is an iPad 2, so the infotainment option won’t really work (unless there’s a tweak which turns it into a Carplay receiver). Also, I don’t think the double dinn would work, as I saw teardowns, where it appears that the control unit is separately located (under the glovebox) from the screen.

    Edit: And the screen appears to be too thin to accomodate a full double dinn head unit (which is why these aftermarket ones seem to push the display a fair bit forward)

      Well, make sure you come back and update what you did. It’s this very niche info that really deserves preservation.

      Someone will end up here in the future and will be appreciative.
