Halim Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 This is my new project to upgrade 2000 RX 300 (no navigation only pioneer premium sound system) with 2001 RX OEM used GPS navigation. I read few upgrades of RX's with new navigation retrofit from GUS,Ohio. I think he is no longer doing this or no current contact info's.. But it was very expensive for me. Today I got used OEM 2001 RX navigation. First of all I need electrical manuals for Navigation system. If any member has it please feel free to share with me. I wants to add Iphone, Ipod, backup camera ( boughtboyo VTL 402c) with the screen, service records etc. Don't worry about the GPS system too much. 01'RX may be GEN 2 gps. Here is some pics of used OEM RX 2001 navigation. I will post step by step details with pictures of my project when it done.
01 black on black on 18s Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Any update on this install? I'm doing the same install. Is it just a plug and play or whats involved? Also, any ideas what will happen if I don't install the DVD drive (obviously I'll have no nav) but will the radio and heat still work and will the screen light up? On your non-nav vehicle was there plugs already in place for all this or was extensive mods required? Sorry, tonnes of questions. Dan
Halim Posted December 21, 2011 Author Posted December 21, 2011 I am still gathering the resources. My Rx does not pre-wired for navigation. But I think your model does. Here is the link for you: http://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-first-generation/317270-oem-nav-installation-w-pics.html

Halim Posted April 29, 2012 Author Posted April 29, 2012 I finally installed the Gen 4 Navigation retrofit in my RX today. Now I could play videos from my Iphone to the nav screen.
