RCF Fan

Welcome to the club! I too find the heated seats crap but believe it is a case of "they all do that, sir". Shame as I came from an IS which had much better heated and cooled seats. Good luck with the consumption 🙂 I average about 14/16 in London traffic. Managed 28/29 mpg on euro trip, which I thought was rather good.

Ha, now you have me thinking again to give this a go. I did watch the video too. Very kind offer, thank you. May well take you up on that - fit in a drive too!

Hammersmith so not that far west 🙂 Excuse for a drive perhaps! Thanks!

Thanks Kieran, I did find that thread and read through but I am not keen on attempting this job myself.

Good morning fellow F fans, I have a 2020 MY RCF - facelift model but sadly before they introduced carplay so same widescreen model introduced from around 2018 (i believe). Much as I enjoy the car itself, the infotainment is shockingly bad for such a modern vehicle. I came from an IS250 2009 and can't say the new one is any better. Lexus offer a software upgrade to the NX, UX models from 2019 but sadly not the RC. I've found a potential solution but looking for installer recommendations (i.e. someone who wont ruin the interior and/or mess up any wiring). Preferably west london but open to reasonable journeys. Cheers and any excuse for a picture 🙂 https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/4001359733954.html?UTABTest=aliabtest300081_422161&_randl_currency=EUR&_randl_shipto=FR&src=google&src=google&albch=shopping&acnt=248-630-5778&slnk=&plac=&mtctp=&albbt=Google_7_shopping&gclsrc=aw.ds&albagn=888888&isSmbAutoCall=false&needSmbHouyi=false&src=google&albch=shopping&acnt=248-630-5778&slnk=&plac=&mtctp=&albbt=Google_7_shopping&gclsrc=aw.ds&albagn=888888&ds_e_adid=448836400057&ds_e_matchtype=&ds_e_device=c&ds_e_network=u&ds_e_product_group_id=1306820800200&ds_e_product_id=fr4001359733954&ds_e_product_merchant_id=108306942&ds_e_product_country=FR&ds_e_product_language=fr&ds_e_product_channel=online&ds_e_product_store_id=&ds_url_v=2&albcp=10564357377&albag=104632701295&isSmbAutoCall=false&needSmbHouyi=false&gclid=EAIaIQobChMInIfm4ImH-QIVRZBoCR3zsw55EAYYAyABEgLaFfD_BwE&aff_fcid=8835fc2a88aa42d2a133263b105c9c9a-1658306701930-03017-UneMJZVf&aff_fsk=UneMJZVf&aff_platform=aaf&sk=UneMJZVf&aff_trace_key=8835fc2a88aa42d2a133263b105c9c9a-1658306701930-03017-UneMJZVf&terminal_id=38334e0343d6480aa2c30b9401df3759&OLP=1083300108_f_group0&o_s_id=1083300108&afSmartRedirect=y&gatewayAdapt=glo2fra

Looks great and no rubbing?

Agreed. Mine had this as standard I think

Agreed, I think that is the route I will go but will do this later in the year - want to get some miles on thing first! I would go as far to say that in terms of usability the touch screen system in my 2008 IS250 was better! 🤣

Many thanks Billy, that is a very kind offer. I am the same, would not be that keen to get rid of the standard screen/infotainment - just wish it was better especially considering it's age. Still, i knew about that prior to purchasing - just a shame really.

Many thanks, Bill - impressive stuff. I would be terrified to do that myself though...will google some audio specialists in west london...

Hi Ben and great choice of colour! I am also new to RCF ownership - 2019 model in Azur Blue. Previously had a IS250, great car. Enjoying this one, if not the fuel consumption and the infotainment. It has the newer widescreen but no carplay upgrade available, which is disappointing from Lexus - especially given owners of NX, UF and ES can benefit from software upgrade. How did you get on with the springs? Also think they sit a little high in the front so interested in this
