Hi Dan,

The overall look and drive of the car is great - the plasi-wood is a mod I knew I could update / convert, so it wasn't a game changer.

The car I bought was a great buy, low miles, full LSH and pretty much all the toys. A very well looked after and maintained motor. So I wasn't going to let it out me off - also, I didn't want to spend more on the RX400h yet.

My 2013 disk has the satnav overide but I'm sure earlier ones also do the same

Mines the 2011-2012 so it must then - now where's that override button on gen01.. Hmmmm??

All done! :0)

Quite easy actually - I even had a go doing the black part with the heated seats/lighter controls.

Very pleased - better than that God awful plasti-wood

Saying that - the one thing I wanted to do is the sat nab over-ride, which I couldn't find...

Is this the right screen or is there something else?

Dragged up topic alert!

Had a spare hour this afternoon so wrapped my wood trim with brushed aluminium....

Literaly took and hour to take out, strip, wrap and reassemble...

Any change you can put a "how to" for the door wood trims and the centre sliding console part?! Pleeeeez". :0)

this should work for a RX300 as well as a 400h. Worked on the series II GS300/430 too.

Thanks Colin,

Tried that and it doesn't work.

However, I did find out how to do it - keep INFO button pressed and turn lights switch from off to side light x3 and it just pops up on the screen! Had a look on the menu and nothing here to mess about with (nothing I would feel confident changing anyway!)

Right!

I'm stuck, I got these two bits off....

But I can't get the door wood trim off and the other two wood trim from the sliding centre console!.

Help please....

If anyone needs the info - the cable is a SOT-933. They are amplified and the amp is behind the rear seat on the drivers side. You'll also need an extension cable.

Been to Halfords today to have an ioPlay2 fitted.

They ordered the wrong SOT cable (was for an amplified system) does anyone know which SOT they should order?

He's saying the will order a Citroen one as it looks like it would work??!!

I don't have the Levinson amp, so is my car not amplified? If joy, which SOT cable is it?

I don't trust them to order the right one, any help highly appreciated - what a waste of 1 hour on a weekend!!

Yup thanks guys,

I'm covered on that front now. Just struggling to access this service menu

I can't understand the reason for taking all the trouble to

change the rear lamps as they will only be viewed by following vehicles and not

be seen by the owner??

Besides, it's a more modern look than the normal lights on 300.

Hi Colin,

Just to clarify then - go into the DVD info screen, click display button, then top left, bottom left x3?

Just tried that Colin and it didn't work....

Thanks all,

Bit gutted today, after I inserted he 'new' disc that doesn't work on my system, then put mine back in, I've noticed that I can no longer add destinations while on the move, like I did before.

I've read about the lockout but I can't access the menu to do it - what's the process for a Gen01 system?

Looks rather fetching without the roof rails - still, I like the practicality of having them :0)

Can this be done? I love the LED rears on the 400, has anyone done this mod?

Code PZ445-X01EU-11

For Gen01 nav system

I bought one from Germany, arrived in only a couple of days, and worked fine in my 2004 RX300 (from joker4791 but was a good disc .http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231161720977?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 )

Email him first to see if it is suitable for your specific vehicle. He advises that in his add

Messaged him and he has no compatible discs. :0(

By the way, if this disc worked, you can't have a Gen01 sat nav, it plays from gen3,mac cording to his listing?

However, what I'm getting confused about is it seems Gen1 is a hard drive based system according to some info online??!! But I have a DVD drive??

Can anyone give clarity?

I checked here : http://www.lexus-mapupdates.eu/Shop/Index

Mine is the Gen01 looking at the image.

The pictures look like the same disc?!...I don't understand why it's not working??

Is yours running Gen1 system sat nav?

Disc came today,

Was looking forward to the updated maps!!.....doesn't work.

Obviously for a later model system.

Looks like I'll be putting on eBay, unless someone on here wants it....

Any ideas where I can get an updated disc for Gen1 system - not lexus directly! (£££££)

Thanks

I got replacements for my LS400 from these guys:

Although the RX isn't listed, perhaps they're the same as a Toyota?

Thanks, I emailed them as the RX isn't showing, as you said.

Hopefully they'll get back in touch of Easter
