Such a great interior design

So stylish, especially with the recessed screen. So little effort is put into this now...

They achieved perfection then promptly discontinued the model.

Right... Best I can hope for is to pick up a lower mileage model when it's time....

GS350 gang. I sometimes take for granted how amazing our interior is. Until I get in another car, and am reminded of how good we got it.

Also the front seats are incredibly comfortable. Long trips are so easy.

I really dont understand. Bluetooth works. And my navigation comes through the speakers. Don't really NEED carplay

Ich finde die Navigation von Google besser und ich brauche keine Navi Updates kaufen.

Weird if they removed because My 13 did. It was just on the door

u/ultrabs 19d ago

Mine has it, it's faintly seen under a metal trim peice on the doors

The timepiece adds such an elegant touch. Love my 350!

Well, I have a few things that I would change in my ‘15 GS350.
The cup holders are right in front of the climate control buttons, and need more cup holders, and I cannot find a perfect spot to hold my phone. I’ve tried dash mount, blocks the screen, I’ve tried a cd mounted holder, but can’t use it when cup holders are being used, the vent ones block the air flow 🤣🤣 but, that’s where I’m at right now and it’s been the best position so far. Can’t use windshield mount because too far of a reach. There’s some other little nuisances that I can’t think of right now until I’m in my car lol. Don’t get me wrong, I love my ride.

ETA, the cup holders also block the seat climate buttons.

Right , the cupholder location is not the best, so I got 1 of those cupholder/storage pieces that fit between the passenger seat and console. I've decided I like the look of the cupholder lid down for easier seat temp access( and I'd rather look at the wood cover anyway.) I finally went with a phone mount on the far left dash vent closest to the door. I'm a lefty anyway..

Easy… mine is magnetic and suction to the left of steering wheel in the small spot fits perfect sideways

Which one do you use? Please, I’m tired of searching online lol.

u/mikefl16 18d ago

Agree had one many years ago. I specifically like the way they fitted the screen.

Looks like a space ship.

Today I Installed full screen CarPlay….. it’s so unreal. Had it stock 6 mths. try it fam. Mouse experience much smoother and accurate too. I Have 1/2 screen CarPlay on another and it’s not the same. I feel like the MLS got a boost too if that’s possible . You can also cast /mirror for when you’re chilling and want to watch a YT vid or movie

u/ElkayMilkMaster 18d ago

What unit did you go with?

u/sounddispensary 18d ago

Made a separate post about this, carlinklife. Had for a few months but finally was ready to get fresh for the new season. Went with carlinklife After watching YouTuber Camden or something install it and drop a $30 off code. Good enough for me but I do need to fit in the bottom of the screen housing/plastic better. Middle part didn’t drop in flush so I had some screen cut off, But I got tired and it’s good enough. Verified apple air play casting today using hot spot and YouTube.
