1996 Ls Center Console

[aggiecarpenter]

I tried to remove my the woodgrain panel from my center console to remove the radio. In the process it buckled and cracked in 2 places. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement for a decent price. I only found it on one website and it was $500! Any help is appreciated.

There are lots of auto salvage companies in the U.S. You could have a local one do a parts search or call these guys: http://www.grahamsauto.com/

They say the specialize in LS400s but I have no experience with them.

Did you follow some instructions on how to remove the radio or did you "wing it"? I was surprised when I found how flimsy the wood is in the later LS400 compared to the wood in the gen 1 LS which is thicker and more rigid.

Wait until you see it on the 430s...

I followed the instructions but I guess I was a little too rough with it. Thanks for the info.
