What A Fantastic ProductReview by HabsFan1422
Satisfaction
My car is a 2018 Lexus IS 300 AWD F-Sport w/o Navigation Function. I own an Android device. I cannot express enough of how easy and fantastic of a product this is. Following 10 minute video tutorial is all you need to do, making the connections and disassembly of the car panels was very easy. The product itself connects to the Android device wirelessly with the seperately purchased dongle, and the latency is so minimal I was shocked. The screen response is very smooth, video quality is perfect for my needs.

Truly worth the purchase (Posted on 7/10/2023)
Used it to run an Amazon FirestickReview by Amazon Firestick
Satisfaction
This kit works great aside from having to purchase all the extras to mirror an iPhone. Rather than spend the money on the extras needed to mirror my iPhone, I purchased an Amazon Firestick and inserted it where the HDMI cord goes. I got spot off my phone and it works great. (Posted on 10/9/2022)
Great product,easy diyReview by Eli
Satisfaction
Amazing product I got this for my 2016 Camry works amazing the installation was a breeze and the video was very helpful I had no problems at all the kit works exactly as advertised and great value anything similar would cost a lot more the one thing is that the older car screens resolution is not very good for gps and stuff so not as crisp as the new cars CarPlay but your not getting much better than this and for some reason the resolution is only not so good for gps and other apps but for video it’s amazing overall definitely a buy great product thank you Eric!

Wired interface to phone

Installation was a breeze as it's all Plug and Play. But do be aware that this kit is by no means complete, as shipped.
Android Auto isn't even used in the wired setup, probably because Toyota did not have that in 2019. Also, as another reviewer pointed out - you lose some of your steering wheel controls, there's no vehicle touchscreen interface when mirroring and video, no matter how much you adjust it, just isn't very crisp and is washed out.

Great productReview by Brian
Satisfaction
Installed the IF-02BEP within my 2019 Toyota Highlander Limited. Works great. Wish the install video gave more information on securing the device once the device connections are made to the Head Unit. I utilized electrical tape to prevent separation of the connections prior to placing the bundle back into the area behind the Head Unit being sure to not cover any cooling slots. The factory navigation is so outdated and not user friendly to use. Being able to utilize my iPhone SE to navigate via Google or Waze via my Head Unit is so much easier to use. The ability to mirror my iPhone to the Head Unit is a pleasure to use. (Posted on 4/21/2021)

This is a great setupReview by GoConfigure
Satisfaction
You can tell a lot of time and R&D went into designing this harness. Just to have the OEM molded plug fitment is impressive.
There is no trace of tampering anywhere and it can be removed and no one would know it was ever installed. Everything works just as it should.
The install took me 45 min and I was VERY slow and careful as this was a week old 2018 RAV4 Adventure and I was not going to mar it up. I appreciate how modular and lego-like the RAV4 is.
There are only 5 screws in the whole install. Everything else pops off and back on. I am now confident enough to run my wireless Qi charger through the dash and into the fuse box.
That's my next project and may take 20 min if I drag my feet. Just make sure you tape up the AC display and really anything else you think may get scratched (I went above and beyond).
The result of my 45 minute install made my RAV4 soooo much more useful and, in addition to mirracasting via Screen Beam 2 module, all my locked controls while driving are now unlocked.
Yes, I would like to interface the display with touch while mirracasting but that is just not possible. Widi is made for TVs and they don't have touch.
This is a great setup and will satisfy most that buy it. (Posted on 8/16/2018)
Awesome Product and Customer SupportReview by Etzel
Satisfaction
I was excited after viewing the YouTube installation of this mirroring installation and ordered the kit before my roadtrip. The installation looked easy enough and I could not wait until I received it. It should have been delivered in 2 days, but there was a problem with UPS. The package could not be found.

Beatsonic’s customer service shipped me another one right away with overnight delivery. I received it the day I was supposed to leave. Ready to do the install, I checked my inventory, but found there was one part missing. It was not meant to come on the trip with me unfortunately. I let Beatsonic know about the issue, and they overnighted the part to me.

I finally got the opportunity to install everything once I returned and it was a painless process. The system is slick, and now allows me to see a large iPhone display versus the built in Entune controls we so rarely use. You can even watch movies and TV on the thing! So much worth the wait. It would have been great to have it on the trip, but it will definitely get some extensive use! Thanks to Beatsonic for putting this kit together, posting easy to follow installation videos, and for providing great customer support. (Posted on 7/28/2018)
Functional but lacking controlsReview by Azrael
Satisfaction
Smartphone used: Samsung Galaxy Note 8
Vehicle: 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road
Module Add-ons: Actiontec Screenbeam Mini2.

If you are like me and use Waze or common apps daily to navigate around traffic, then this adapter is a must. That being said there are a few things to remember before purchasing this module. See my list of pros and cons before.

Pros:
-Works with all Android Apps to include Waze, Google Mats, and Android Auto
-Audio works with Bluetooth through the adapter as well
Steering wheel volume control works.
-Easy to setup - Took less than 10 minutes to take everything apart and install wiring harnesses.
-Instructional video helped a lot!
-Wireless - Everything is wireless in this process (use a wireless charger to charge my phone).

Cons:
-Not all steering wheel buttons work - can't skip songs nor interact with the smartphone,
-The touch screen will not interact with the phone. Meaning none of the buttons that appear on the screen will interact with you by touching them.
-The resolution of the monitor isn't as crisp and clear as that on the smartphone (slightly grainy).
-Pain to thread remote switch wiring through the dash, ended up using a rod with the wiring tapped to it to get the remote switch threaded to the outside of the infotainment system under the steering wheel.
- Putting it all back together was also a pain as it took some shuffling and rearranging of wires to get the infotainment head unit to fit like it did before.
-Phone can overheat and shutdown when screen mirroring and charging at the same time.
-Audio streaming through the module is of lower quality than that streaming through the infotainment bypassing the module.

A++Review by ray

It is not as user friendly as the Apple CarPlay but still very useful.
Now I am able to mirror my Waze on the screen and get to the destination without frustration which I commonly experienced with the Toyota navigation.
I don't watch movie while I'm driving but the ability to mirror the YouTube and other video related apps is pretty cool too.

Easy Install - cheaper wayReview by dubit
Satisfaction
Got this from a friend who was too afraid to install.
Easy installation, but went a cheaper route using the Microsoft Wireless Display Adater.
Purchased from Best Buy for $50.00. HDMI, USB powered - Same as the recommended Netgear but less than half the cost.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/microsoft-wireless-display-adapter-v2-receiver-dark-titanium/4974200.p?skuId=4974200

Should be noted this works for ONLY Android phones (Windows phone as well if you own one). Apple however, IS NOT compatible.

Easy to install works greatReview by Nomax
Satisfaction
Installed this in my 2016 Prius 4, installation took about an hour maybe less. Functionally everything worked perfectly.
The display resolution is just a little less than I had hoped, its definitely readable, the colors are a little washed out and the graphics a little boxy but overall I am pleased with the results.
The audio is absolutely flawless. Im going to mount an apple tv to it next so that I can mirror the iPhone wirelessly.
The navigation bypass/in motion is a great feature as well. 4 stars, would have been 5 but the resolution is just not there. (Posted on 11/1/2016)

FAQ

Q1. How do I know if this kit is compatible to my car? 

A2. Please find your vehicle under the compatibility list. If your vehicle is not in the list, it is not compatible.

Q2. Does it matter what sound system I have in the car?

A2. It does not matter what sound system you have in your car, as long as it is a factory equipped system.

Q3. Is IF-02BEP all I need to mirror my iPhone?

A3. You need to purchase these three iPhone related accessories separately and combine them with the IF-02BEP to complete the installation.

1. Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter (Part Number: MD826AM/A)
2. Lightning to USB Charging Cable (4 inches Lighting to USB)
3. Lighting Extension Cable (3 feet Plug to Socket)

Q4. Is IF-02BEP all I need to mirror my Android phone?

A4. You need to purchase a HDMI wireless adapter such as an Actiontec ScreenBeam Mini2 separately and combine it with the IF-02BEP to complete the installation.

- Wireless Display HDMI adapter with Miracast (Actiontec ScreenBeam Mini2 / SBWD60A01)

Q5. How do I connect the iPhone or the Android related accessories to the IF-02BEP?

A5. DIY video is available under the Manuals & Videos section.

Q6. Installing IF-02BEP in my car, will it void my factory warranty?

A6. The entire IF-02BEP components will be installed and left behind the radio that the Lexus has no reason to void your warranty. Unless, however, the car goes in to the dealership to get a stereo/navigation related service and the technicians spot the IF-02BEP, then they will not honor the warranty.

Q7. Can I connect my iPhone to theIF-02BEP wirlessly?

A7. It may be possible to do so by using an Apple TV, but you’ll need a mobile hot spot in your car to establish the wireless connection.

Q8. Can I connect my Android phone to the IF-02BEP with the MHL cable? Do I have to go wireless?

A8. Majority of Android phones released after the year 2015 are not MHL supported. This makes it impossible to send A/V data using the MHL cable. The A/V data must be sent via WiFi using a Smart View or the similar screen mirroring features available on your phone.

Q9. Can my iPhone be charged while it is mirrored?

A9. The power consumed while using the iPhone exceeds the charging power that it will slowly drain the battery. Dimming the screen brightness on the iPhone will greatly reduce the consumed power rate and it will not affect the brightness on the factory screen.

Q10. Does it only mirror the phone or I can mirror any device?

A10. It could mirror any device that runs with the latest iOS and Android-ran devices with Miracast and/or mirroring feature by adding an appropriate adapter.

Q11. Will my phone be mirrored automatically when I connect the phone?

A11. Mirrored image is displayed on the factory screen, only when the A/V mode is selected. If the A/V mode was selected before the ignition was killed, the screen will start from the A/V mode, and the mirrored image will automatically be displayed to the screen as the phone is plugged in to the IF-02BEP.

Q12. How good is the resolution?

A12. It is not technically possible to send HDMI signal straight to the factory screen in HD quality, as the factory screen is only able to read the RCA analog signal. HDMI is digital and able to send video signal without much signal loss, as such the resolution is kept very high. However, the RCA is analog and there’s significant amount of signal loss, as such the resolution is poorer compared to the HDMI. In addition to it, the display quality is highly dependent to the resolution offered on the factory screen, and the highest resolution offered in the Lexus lineup is 1280 x 480, which is not considered “high”. 

Q13. What is the difference between Smartphone Mirroring and Carplay/Android Auto?

A13. Here is a great video showing the difference between Smartphone Mirroring and Carplay/Android Auto: https://youtu.be/_7eAk9ekxDI
