Tight space for wiring and the need to be extremely careful not to scratch anything during removal and installation of the screen, but the end product is worth the effort. Beautiful screen, smooth and reliable operation. This was a phenomenal upgrade for the RC.
I just want to say this head unit I really enjoyed using it. It make my message and writing text back so helpful. Who looking for the best head unit for the Lexus I recommend checking out Hamilton company. Thank again better than that boring factory head unit.
I like how easy it was to install the screen the only thing I could think that is a little problem is the fact that there is a small delay with the screen and the audio an another small is that the pause and play buttons(on the radio) will no longer work due to the fact that the screen is connected via aux.
Very beautiful piece of equipment addition to my car I love it
Was scrolling through YouTube and the various Lexus RC 300 F Sport groups when i came across this video where the guy upgraded his head unit from stock to Hamilton Motor Company and I really liked it. Next day I bought it and, it came super fast!! Went to the company that has been doing all the mods on my car and they installed today.. I absolutely LOVE IT and would recommend to anyone looking to upgrade the interior of your RC or any other car they offer products for

Love this thing
Absolutely excellent communication with order and shipping. The screen looks great in my 2015 Lexus RCF. Major upgrade from the Lexus stock screen. Definitely pleased with fitment and operations of the screen. Huge upgrade for sure.
Overall, I am pleased with the purchase. There are two things I would critique. First, the initial connection was confusing. - he needs to connect to the stock radio first and then connect to the Head unit. Secondly when using day-to-day, the connection time seems to be excessive at around 45 seconds after startup. Again I’m pleased with the purchase in the unit works very well once connected.
Was an absolute pleasure to install and use. Is expensive but the quality is definitely there. Unit works flawlessly and extremely fast. It connects in less than a second. I have bought and installed 4 other CarPlay units prior to buying this that were cheaper and harder to install and don’t work as well. I’ll stick with this company in the future.
Can't say enough good things about this product. I have been itching to buy a new car, not because I don't love my Lexus, but because the tech inside was (even in 2016) not up to today's standard. I didn't have Android Auto, the screen was small, no any on screen, etc.... For $1100 (with installation) I dramatically improved the vehicle that I'm now convinced will last me 3-5 more years no problem. The screen looks incredible, fits in snugly. The only thing I've noticed is I'm not sure how/if it works with the side sensors (TBD). Rear camera works great, Android Auto flawless.
Awesome screen, easy to install and customer service was outstanding, I received a screen with some hardware issue and they replaced right away.
Waiting a few months to leave review but after over 60 days using it , no issues or complaints, everything works as expected and was able to retain all OEM functionality
System works great and gives the car a completely up-to-date feel. Installation is very approachable and the screen looks OEM. All factory functions are maintained without issue.
Have had the opportunity to work with various brands and similar products and these units impress in every way possible, very satisfied with these units and would highly recommend.
I have a 2015 Lexus RC f, this upgrade is a must. This screen makes the car seem like it's a 2025. No having to use the factory GPS which is absolutely horrible in the OEM screen. You get a 10-in touch screen that is just amazing to have. Customer service has been phenomenal and I truly appreciate all their help with all the questions that I had. I will say to make installation a lot easier aside from taking off the center console take out the middle to air vents to make routing the wires a lot easier
Really plug and play experience the best upgrade everything it’s workin as Hamilton described
Hi
I have the Mark Levinson stereo. Does this product works with that?
The ML amplifier is separate but I got more speakers than the standard stereo.
How does this work?
Hey Johan, our kit is fully compatible with the Mark Levinson version. Feel free to reach out to us by email/phone if you need any help.
This kit saved me money compared to buying a new screen from the dealership
5 stars
Thanks
Looks great!
Made my car feel like a new one
A much needed upgrade. Android auto works great and it has all the original functions. My backup camera and steering wheel controls work perfectly. Cool!
Looks very nice and works as described.
It is very cool that it preserves the ability to go back to the original screen with the push of a button.
Four stars because the post office had a delivery exception and I had to contact support
