Either we all email them or post about it on their facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/CaFiInfotainment

I think I'll start a post on Facebook, the more comments the better!
i wonder if maybe it would be a good idea to let support know about this thread/forum. maybe they will jump in and will be able to address problems faster with us and maybe even be able to talk directly to us about stuff.

Thanks. That did it.

Would be nice if we could bypass the bluetooth app altogether. When receiving calls, the bluetooth app still opens up and sometimes it doesnt recognise the number, even though it is one of my contacts calling.

yeah the bluetooth app gets it's address book from the bluetooth contact sync which from my experience is flakey. At least with the dialler we can call people if the address book doesn't sync.

Will these connect to bluetooth obdii and phone at the same time? Currently using usb obdii but don't like that it autostarts (or asks permission to autostart) everytime the the car starts.

Does anyone know if the Rear Camera on the Ca-fis official webstore is compatible with our car and any good?

http://store.ca-fi.com/index.php?rou...product_id=140

I'm up for any other recommendations on a rear camera as well. Thanks.

any car camera that has an RCA output will work, even if not, it's just video + & - that needs to be wired in, use the reverse lights or toyota 12v reverse signal to power it.

i used this:

How does that one look? Pics of display and outside view of it installed? I've been looking for one that mounts right through license plate bolt hole with no extra holes needed to run wires.How is lack of night vision working out?

Also what's your favorite color?

The reverse light provides more than enough light for night. Never had an issue at night. Pictures are indoors with lights off

I like white.
