One of the best upgrades for your car or truck!! Awesome product!
By CJ
I purchased this direct through VAIS in March 2013 and I am extremely happy with this IVIC unit! I will warn you that I purchased the required Samsung MHL HDMI adapter from Amazon which I thought was authentic for my Galaxy Note 2 phone, but I was sold a fake!! I confirmed this by going to Best Buy and buying the adapter there. The real adapter is about 5x heavier in quality build and shielding as opposed to the knock off. I sent my adapter back to Amazon. To be clear, the vendor of the fake MHL adapter WAS NOT VAIS, they don't sell them. The fake adapter was causing the system to glitch and cut out frequently. The new adapter has been working great and I do have the occassional glitch so far, but I think it has to do with the AT&T network signals interfering with the HDMI output on the phone. VAIS support is working with me on this..it could be an issue with my phone make/model but they are good about releasing firmware updates that you can do yourself without uninstalling the unit via the quick USB extension they provide you. That extension also allows you to plug in your newer generation ipods and thumb drives for USB MP3 audio connection and more.Despite the occassional glitch of lost signal to my screen, I am still giving this a 5 star review for now because VAIS tech support is amazing and the product is a game changer to update your existing car's audio/video. Lexus charges a lot of money to update the NAV system in the LS460/600 vehicles but this allows me to bypass the oem nav if I want and use apps like Waze and Google Navigation which are constantly updated..for FREE!! I added a $9 bluetooth mouse to enhance my experience with this IVIC also. Not required but it makes it more fun to use and the roller ball on the mouse allows for side to side swiping and scrolling on the screen. My factory nav unit does not allow me to swipe, but this is not a fault of the IVIC..it is a Lexus screen hardware limitation on the 5th Gen Nav of my LS.This install should take less than an hour on most vehicles. It only requires access to rear of nav screen and back of oem radio to connect the plug and play harnesses. I paid less than $70 at a local Best Buy because I didn't want to take time to do it myself..lazy I guess.Kudos to VAIS for coming out with this product. At $449 price, it is also about $150 less than when it first came out, so it is a great price for everything you get out of this. I could post more but basically whatever you do on your phone now, music, videos, talk to text, web, streaming netflix, NBA Broadband, etc...you can do on your car screen..Amazing stuff!CJ

By Kevin T
If you own a later model Lexus, this product is for you!!! It does exactly what it promises. Basically my phone becomes my car audio, video and communication system. There were a couple hurdles at first, which was expected, but everything works like a charm now. I installed it in my LS600HL and all of my original equipment (DVD, HD, SAT...) works alongside the IVIC seamlessly. Self Parking feature and cameras all work fine. No wires to cut or splice. The techs (i dealt with Eugene) at Vaistech are extremely helpful. They respond very promptly and work diligently with you to get things working correctly. Updates are available online and extremely easy to install. Games, video, audio, youtube, email, texting,.....basically anything you can do on your phone, you can do on the car touchscreen. Definitely buy this product if you are looking to get the most out of your system. It even works with my Beatsonic Nav/DVD bypass installed.

By Eric Schuster
I purchased this product on day one. I have to say that I am VERY impressed- not only with the service from the company, completeness of instructions and the actual functionality of the product but also the sound quality I get now in my Lexus. I had a previous VAIS unit from 2007 called the SL2i which essentially took an ipod and emulated a CD changer. The iVIC is a whole different level.Never update your stock maps againDo not worry about uploading your phone book or new contacts ever againstream ANY music at full digital quality- Amazon, Pandora- you name it.Watch flippin movies while you are sitting still of course :)Use full voice (make sure your phone is somewhere close because it will use the stock mic on the phone) control for responding to texts or whatever else. I had cables run to my center console- makes plugging in and unplugging easier. Also makes using voice commands easier.This takes an older Lexus like mine- 2007 and makes it surpass what auto makers are putting out today for the cost of a single car payment (or a little more). I was on the verge of getting a new car so I could actually use my phone the way I wanted. I was sick of constantly taking an ipod in and changing things and synching and then plugging it back in (OH YEAH- AUDIO BOOKS!)This thing does everything I wanted it to. Get it and love it.PS- full disclosure I had a professional install it but I have since swapped it out after a glitch- VAIS Swapped it free and fast when the glitch was identified.Update- VAIS continues to be wonderful and has updated the firmware several times for additional function (full screen now) and more stability. I did have my HDMI cable end bend and then break so if you are running cables I recommend a male to female for the primary and then a male to micro as the last foot or two.
