marky2mark Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Hi, new poster here. I just bought a 2008 LS 460, now I am regretting not getting the Mark Levinson premium stereo. Is there a way to upgrade the stock stereo to the ML system? I don't care so much about all the 19 speakers but would like to be able to play DVD's and rip CDs to the HDD. I didn't realize you couldn't do that with the stock system. Hoping maybe DCFISH can help me.... Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil J. Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I would love to learn more about this also. I met a Lexus executive on a plane and he told me that there have been a lot of Navigation improvements in the 2010 model year over my 2009. The voice recognition is also improved I am told. I wonder if I can upgrade my system? Welcome to the club I'll look into this for you, PM me with email address. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
