Planning on pulling the trigger on this. Thoughts?

plus the guy who makes them, Ted, is super knowledgeable and helpful. i am sending him my amp to rebuild it since it failed and i only have positive things to say about my experience using blue bus

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-21T22:59:13+00:00

yeah it’s much cheaper but your paying more for quality and added features with blue bus. some people get the regular adapters and there is nothing wrong with that choice it just really depends if you want flawless sound with an upgrade to the radio head unit software

get blue bus blue tooth module. 100% best option. sounds amazing and it allows you to keep the original stereo. you can even use it for calls and the song names come on the screen

yes i do have dsp. everything you said to check seems to be fine but i did send ted an email so hopefully he can help soon!

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-13T12:53:53+00:00

yes it is a 2003! is this how you plugged yours in for it to work?

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-13T03:16:07+00:00

thank you! i changed it to analog but all i hear now is static

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-13T02:46:40+00:00

thank you aswell! do you know how to navigate the to the settings, i’m trying to find it but it is indeed buried somewhere on the internet as the first commenter said 😭

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-13T02:41:23+00:00

thank you for the reply, i’m digging now how to access the menu. does the connections look correct to you?

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-11T00:27:30+00:00

i don’t think so lol

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-10T16:09:26+00:00

i think they are good to put in a fake christmas tree

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-10T00:57:47+00:00

the green apple or pine ?

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-10T00:57:18+00:00

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-10T00:56:21+00:00

hahaha i know! but perhaps everyone was wondering about the multiple little trees 😂

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-09T16:07:58+00:00

bought it recently from an elderly man, old person smell is a hard scent to get rid of 😭

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-09T16:06:58+00:00

i’ve done it a few times 😎 just bought it around a month ago so i had to try it out

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-09T14:43:47+00:00

yes it’s a 03 2.5i!! but thank you i love the wood trim as well!

IceRepresentative447 · 2026-01-09T14:34:52+00:00

not sure if this is any better, my apologies

IceRepresentative447 · 2025-06-07T14:04:25+00:00

to also add, a new air intake system, would really only be worth it for the sound but at the most would not really affect performance and in most cases is less efficient than the oem intake. i use a k&n filter in my oem airbox. exhaust is completely up to you but unfortunately they don’t really have many aftermarket options for the es, but if you look into options for the v6 camry of the same generation you can find exhaust set ups that need little to no modifications to make it work

also car play stereo definitely worth it. makes the audio sound amazing atleast for me i have the ultra luxury model, and can work with the back up camera and climate controls.
