This video is about upgrading the head unit or infotainment system (car stereo and navigation system) in your Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 120 series or Lexus GX 470. I talk about the different aftermarket upgrade options that exist, and why I chose the GROM Audio VLine system for my overlanding vehicle.
This add-on brings Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and all the modern conveniences such as Waze, Spotify and more to your truck.
I have arranged a discount for you all. The code TVP60OFF will give you $60 off your purchase from GROM, in case you want to pick one up yourself. Please use the following link to visit their website: gromaudio.com/...
If you own the same vehicle and want to buy the exact same unit that I have, here’s a direct link to the product page, the compatible VLine model is LEX4VL2: gromaudio.com/...
And here is a link to all VLine system models: gromaudio.com/...
In this video I show some steps of the installation and give you a demo of how it works. I will also talk about the pros and cons of using the system, since it works with the existing display. Upgrading your car stereo is a process with many options. I hope this video makes that a little easier.
Thanks to Helen at GROM Audio for providing the discount for my viewers.

Great video, thank you Tom! Just to let you know you can calibrate the touchscreen in your VLine setup. Simply, once in VLine UI screen (main screen), tap on three horizontal lines in the upper left corner. There you can tap down to the "Touchscreen Calibration" section and calibrate your screen.

You're very welcome @gromaudio! You guys made a fantastic product. I didn't know about the calibration, thanks for letting me know :) I'll most definitely run that.

Great review! I think it’s the only complete one for this product for the prado. I pondered between buying this and a media bluetooth box and went with that. I can still use the steering wheel commands including change track. I use my phone for navigation. Great to see this product working for you tho! Cheers from Romania!

Thanks man! Yes the bluetooth box alternative is a very viable option if you don't mind navigating on your phone, glad you found yourself a nice upgrade too. I should visit Romania one day. Maybe next summer? Greetings from Sweden!

If you find yourself in warmer climates, don't count on the Velcro glue holding it in place, you can imagine how I know! 😁 Currently looking for a different solution myself.

Haha good point! There's always the 3M VHB double sided tape that holds the bracket in place as a fall-back. Not sure how that will fare in hot Greek summers either, but on paper it should hold. Look into 3M VHB.

Nice work! ... and if you are a youtube watcher its a plus!👍🏻💯 other systems like Beat-Sonic [J150 | 2010-2013 models] you cannot play youtube videos... I personally looking forward to get my VLINE2 installed on my 2011 GX460.

@tomvanpope Год назад
Thanks! Yeah it's a great system. Exactly, with GApps and the Google Play Store you can run almost any Android app on your system. 2011 GX460: NICE! Enjoy man!

Nice video bro! Does it work with apple car play too? Or just with Android auto?

Thanks brother. It works with both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

Apple CarPlay on my RAV4 2022 (OEM unit) looks more laggy than this.

Would've expected a smooth operation in such a new vehicle. Nice ride though!
