Ryan Crawford –
Product worked exactly as advertised. This kit will work with the navigation system as stated in another review, you just need to plug it in to the cd changer port. I was incredibly impressed with the customer service. My package was lost by USPS and even thought the company had every right to not help me they chose to send out a new one. They were also very responsive and informative in the emails. Highly recommend this product, easy install and unparalleled customer service.
Andrew Kerr –
I installed this product in my 2004 Lexus ES330 and it has exceeded my expectations. It produces crystal clear sound and the factory radio controls still work perfectly. This unit is superior to other products currently on the market.
Installation was very easy and the technical support from GTA Car Kits was excellent. I would highly recommend this business!
Dale from Dayton –
This unit will install perfectly on a Lexus with navigation if you do not need the CD unit. Just follow the regular installation only unplug the external CD from the radio-nav unit and plug in the device cable.
Now you have an AUX that works with phone or MP3 player great.
Warren from Burnaby, BC, Canada –
“I was searching out solutions on the internet for my Lexus ES330 and came across your excellent video showing how to install it. I then went to your website to investigate further.
I’ve been using a cassette adapter for awhile now but the player started to reject it after awhile. The solution just became more and more frustrating because it was touch and go, plus the wire was in the way all the time. Additionally, I would have to recharge the iPod.
The GTA solution was PERFECT because a) all the wires are hidden, b) the iPod can stay in the glove compartment and be constantly recharged, and c) I can control the iPod from the dashboard controls (!!) It could not be a better solution.
Shipping was very fast. I received it within a week of ordering, and it was tracked via Canada Post.
The installation could not have been easier. The video was excellent in showing exactly what needed to be done, and the dashboard came apart without any surprises. I did not have to buy any extra tools because you were kind enough to suggest just putting electrical type around the tip of the flathead screwdriver so I could use it to pry the dashboard. Taking apart the dashboard took less than 10 min, although the entire installation took more than 1/2 hour because I had trouble feeding the cables through to the glove box. If it wasn’t for that, I would have been done in 15 min.
I am using an iPod Nano 4th generation, and I ran the cables through to the glove box.
I really like the fact that there are no wires, the iPod remains continuously charged, and I can control it from the CD dashboard controls.
It was a very pleasant experience working with you, as you were very prompt in responding to email enquiries, very friendly, and always gave helpful advice.
Buying the kit was one of the best purchases I’ve ever made, and I have absolutely no regrets. I’ve been recommending the product to anyone I know who may be interested.”
