Remove small plastic tray at top of the dash.
Replace with Nav screen assembly.
The dash itself remains the same and unchanged.

Again. You "DO NOT" need to replace the dash
or center console.

I’m glad that we agree.

Just the dash nav screen, nav computer, GPS ant, wiring harness.

I agree with the other post, you will have a very hard time finding
a lexus system to install.  Also, why install a system that is several
years old?  newer systems will be much better.

You’d be better off with a quality GPS such as Garmin’s soon to be
released c320/c330.
