Faceplate Nakamichi Radio

Kevin? Is that you from CL?

The front of the Nak headunit isn't a snap-on faceplate -- I've had mine out several times. Besides, the button configuration of the 98-00 Nak and standard radio headunits is a little different. The Nak headunit doesn't have an ASL button or the ASL feature. It almost looks like the little buttons at the bottom are in a slightly different location too.

Compare the photo of my Nak: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...si&img=1349

with your Pioneer: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...c=56051&hl=

Is your radio "faceplate" damaged?

With Nakamichi's getting difficult to get repair - parts not available - I'm wishing I had the standard Pioneer system.

It is I.......I dabble in the lexusowners every once and awhile. How are you Jim! Trying to get the Naka style without the Naka stereo headaches like you said. I don't want the actual Naka stereo but I do want the faceplate so it looks like I have the Naka option on my car.....Crazy I know but I added wood steering wheel and shifter for cheap using car-part.com and thought if I could just snap off the faceplate on a broken Naka and fit it on mine I'd be good as gold, used Naka units go for $65 on car-part.

That ASL button is USELESS!!!!! Looks like to me everything is lined up pretty well. How is it attached Jim?

Thanks

If you need OEM audio/nav parts, I am always here B)

dc, how is the radio faceplate attached on the 98-00 units? Is it screwed on or does it have some adhesive?

thanks

If my memory serves me correctly it is held in place with 4 screws and a ribbon connector which feeds the LCD.
