I think you need to replace the timing belt when it approaches 90K. Many car owners will claim "excellent condition" but in really it might fall short from that. I got my 93 ES300(110k) 1yr +8 months ago for $9k out the door. The car was in excellent condition when I got it. Previous owner kept every single maintenance record in the Lexus maintenance book. Since I got the car, I had to change the radiator 8 months ago, A/C compressor last month, and the usual oil change. Now my car is at 151k and I still consider it to be in excellent condition. The blue book value on this is at 8k and I was gonna sell it for 5.5k - 6k so I can get a new 04 330Ci. But now that I just installed a new head unit, I think I'll keep the car a tad bit longer.

Here are some pictures of the head unit.

Just bought it last week on ebay. Had to bypass the factory amp. Sounds great even with factory speakers.

Here are some pictures. My stock 6disc CD changer is up for auction on ebay.

I don't have a working oven here. Is there anything else I can use?

The inside of both headlights are so foggy & cloudy. How can I clean them?

Took the car to have it professionally installed today. He had to bypass the stock amp. That's pretty much it. Didn't add anything else at all just the plain head unit. He charged me $55 for it and took him less than an hour to do. Now, everything is working fine. One little annoyance though; the antenna goes up when the head unit is on even if the source is not RADIO. Other than that I would say the installation's PERFECT. All six speakers work and sound pretty damn good for stock speakers. Should have taken the car to him in the beginning.

I didn't buy the unit from Crutchfield.com but they said that the head unit will work with the pre-existing stock wires without adding anything else. I guess they're wrong. Time for me to find a new amp + speakers. I thought I would be able to try this thing without adding a new amp + speakers.

Can someone provide me with the wiring diagram for 93 ES300? I'm trying to put in a new head unit, a Pioneer DEH-P8500MP but can't seem to figure out the wiring. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
