Hey, i was just wondering what all comes with this module?

I got the converter box.. with red/black wire coming out of it (toggle switch). I also have the blue/white wire coming out of it which is the control wires. I also got the black wires that connect to the DC power supply input.

Am i missing the other wires or another connector? What do I plug into the RGB out connector? I read about and seen pictures of these other wires (brown, purple, orange, yellow) but I dont know where they are coming from.

I'm a n00n with this stuff so take it easy on me. I searched and even saw pictures of some installs

My module also has a sticker taped onto it saying "Lexus Converter Box"

Did dom send me the wrong one? I purchased this on a group buy about 2 months ago

 

Sorry i didnt mention, this is for an 04' TSX

 

pretty obvious from your name

 

just trying to follow the guidelines..

 

Sounds like you're missing the DIN which has the (6 I think) wires that actually connect to the NAV signal wires ... Call Dom .. he'll work you through it.

He's at 718-763-7367

 

For the record....great product!!!

 

THANKS!! i really appreciate the reply.. im going to call dom

 

yep...sounds like you're missing the plug with the 8 wires!

 

ok, i now got the db9 cable with the wires.. where did you guys connect the power to? (two black wires)

 

I got my power from the OEM Amp power line and also ran a noise/power filter in line to avoid any noise/lines on the screen.

 

power and noise filter?

care to share which one and where you got it.

 

Its a power filter I got from RAdio Shack for like $16. There is a pic in one of the other threads similar to this one. Search for dom's nav unit threads and you should stumble over it.

 

thanks cjams..

anyone know what i can use for my audio? Blitzsafe is taking for ever, FM modulator is horrible, ... what else could I use besides blitzsafe to hook up to Doms unit to my navi along with a ps2?

thanks in advance..

 

I used a Soundgate Aux3 and spliced in to the XM input wires from the bottom plug on the HU.https://acurazine.com/forums/audio-video-electronics-navigation-22/finally-i-have-xm-my-auxillary-input-my-05tsexw-navi-312281/

My PS2slim is in the glove box. I hooked all of it up and installed a new amp at the same time so Doms unit, Aux3, And I think 1 other thing is running off of the filtered power line.

 

someone did a write up on the install with great pictures a few months ago, but i have not been able to find the thread to save my life....anyone know who are where it may be?

 

I think that write up was posted in the black market in one of Doms group buy threads, but be careful using it because the pic showed the wires connected wrong.

 

it was but i think the thread was taken off after the sale was over....not sure

 

thanks for the comments..

 

Could wires being wrong have something to do with his being an 04 and yours being an 05?

 

Nope! Somewhere in his same post he said he had a problem getting it to work. He never said it was the wires hooked up wrong though, but I suspect that was what it was. His wires connected exactly backwards. DOMS install instructions were correct.

 

thanks man!... u respond quick!

 

I did a post a few months back on my install. I got the unit the passenger kick panel. I think that is the best spot for it. You dont have to run wires from the back to the front. Everything is right where you need it.

 

what if i have an 04 tsx with no xm? what else could i use for my audio?

 

where did you tap power and ground?
