What would this be for?

[The-Acre]

I was doing some fine tweaking of dash rattles today and this was buried under it all.  The wire goes through to the centre storage box and has a USB port on the end. Is this just for charging or is it meant for something else as well?

Ta.

Interesting. So to explain to a fairly thick person when it comes to technology, what do I need to do/buy to use it?  I've got an android phone.

Try using a usb cable, ie your charging/data cable, In to phone and the grom unit. Then should be able to access music etc by changing the source I think. Or, I'll swap you an official Lexus iPod cable in stead 😀

Thanks all for the replies.  I'll play around with it tomorrow and see what I can do with it.

I had something similar fitted to a gs300 I had and it would charge the phone and also play music from the phone

People of course we're driving like lunatics this morning, one destroying a neighbour's fence, followed by someone else 30 mins later who was making sure the job was done properly!

Just spoken to my other half and she most certainly left both the impossible to drive in snow Ls400 ( mine ) and her 2006 Honda Legend wth AWD un molested and phoned into work to reschedule her working week times ...........  to enjoy  a safe cuppa or two indoors   ..  whilst watching others struggling in the snow !

I decided yesterday it made more sense to walk round to the local co-op to buy some nice ingredients for a cooked breakfast and stay at home.  Slightly shamed by my wife who walked to work!

That reminds me of the times when I go to London, especially along the Fulham Road in Chelsea. You hear a roar from something like a Lamborghini as they accelerate for about 50 yards before they have to brake hard to avoid going into the back of a number 14 bus!

Don't worry about us here in the freezing cold, I'm sure most of us will survive....
