arsmtts Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Ok I know it wouldn't be practical, but I have a buddy whose interested in knowing the cost of installing a Nav system in a 99 GS400 like mine. 1. What brand is recommended? 2. Who do you recommend to do the install? 3. How much would he be looking at (total)? I told him it probably wouldn't be worth it, but he argued with me about it and so I'm needing some advice to prove my theory correct. Has anyone done it?

bbsal Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 what kind of nav are you talking about aftermarket or stock?they sell after market ones like pioneer kenwood,etc...you would be looking at somewere around 1500 to 2000 for them.stock would be even more!hope this helps.

bbsal Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 i think you are talking about aftermarket because you asked what brand so i would say alpine flip screen dvd tv with navagation.about 2000 plus installed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Stock isn't practical. But an aftermarket system is just as practical as installing a new stereo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsmtts Posted August 20, 2003 Author Share Posted August 20, 2003 Just for grins, what's your estimate for stock? Thanks all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 I wouldn't know. To have the Lexus dealer do it, $4000 or so? Maybe more. Thats IF you could find a Lexus dealer that would do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
