  1. I am replacing he Nakamichi Head unit and am going to sell it on Ebay. Wanted to throw it out to you all before I do that and see if anyone is interested. PM or email me. jeffjangell at gmail dot com. It is in great shape and functions perfectly...including the CD changer.
  2. I'd like to upgrade my current system to include Bluetooth and integration for my iPhone 5S. I've heard nightmares about the system (Nakamichi) and the ability to upgrade. (Existing Head Unit is fully functional) Can anyone make a recommendation on a head unit that I can use and NOT replace the Amp, speakers or the SUB. Not really a Audiophile and don't need NAV. Camera would be nice but not absolutely necessary. Does not have to have XM as I would stream that off of my phone. Any suggestions, tips or tricks would be great...Would like to install myself.
  3. i unfortunately did not notice that the person that replaced the windshield wiper blades on my 2000 LX470 did not just replace the insert but also repaced the insert Holder (Blade?) Can anyone reccomend a good place to get replacements for all three wiper blades? Lexus wants nearly $100 for just the driver and passenger parts.
  4. I too am looking for a recommendation on a 2000 head unit replacement that has all of the bells and whistles one might want
  5. Any good ideas or suggestions for me here?
  6. Any thoughts here? Any recommendations for good shops in Seattle, WA
  7. I am interested in changing this out to one that has Satelite Radio, Nav and BT built in. Are models from newer LX's somewhat plug and play? Any recommendations?
  8. I am coming up on 90K miles and am looking to get the car serviced. I generally take it to the Toyota Dealership as the service is much more reasonably priced. Should I have any concerns around doing that with a significant service interval like this? Any idea what I am in for with regard to cost? Does this particular model have a timing belt that needs to be changed? Any Gotchas I should be aware of? Any and all info is greatly appreciated.
  9. Mine is a 2000 with just about 90K
  10. I have a 2000 lx 470 that has right around 75,000 miles on it. I purchased this car used about 4 years ago and purchased a warranty for it when I bought. My warranty is about to expire. I called my local lexus dealership and asked them for a suggestion...They suggested a warranty from Vehicle one...Seems like it covers all of the Major parts (copy is attached) Its about $2500 and goes for 4/48K miles
  11. You bought it at this particular Lexus dealership? I would expect it from a non-Lexus dealer but that is just crap. Ethical would have been them doing to service before selling and tacked on 2k to the final sale price...which is what they seemed to have done anyway. Or they could have left if up to the buyer whether they want it done or not. You can get the 90k service done in a lot of other places for half that price. But at least inform you of what was going to be needed soon. But they worry too much about selling cars. That's why I guess it is good to do your own research for the car you want to see how much it will cost and when major service is needed. Not sure ethical or not...But I would be extremely dissapointed and certainly would put a call into Lexus USA...Just to alert them to this.
  12. Stockish would be my preference.
  13. I have a 200 LX 470 that I would like to put a new stereo into. I currently have the standard stereo system in the car. Would like CD, NAV and Sirius sattelite radio. Any Suggestions?
  14. The AC will help take the humidity out of the air... I usually set mine to Auto and it cycles the AC on and off as necessary.
