  1. Thanks for your repliy. I frequently visit Vancouver BC for weekend gataways. Whenever I drive there, I feel like I am lost since my nav just simply display nothing... I will check my nearest Lexus dealer to see if any updates including Canada is available for my LS. But I am still hoping that Navigation display from GS430 can fit to my LS. Please take a look at these images. This one is from a 02 GS430 that has wide-screen and it's DVD based system. http://www.luxurycarsdirect.net/cars/20009818-29sm.jpg This one is from LS400 that screen is in traditional aspect ratio. http://www.cars.com/features/2000overview/...ion_270x192.jpg Don't you think both look similar? So I still suspect both are interchangable at least in size and shape... If they were swap-able anyway, I know I would have to work on not only swapping display unit, but also wiring loom, brain, etc etc to make the system work:)
  2. Hello, I am a newbie on this forum and own a 99 LS400 for years. These days I came up with feeling that I want to upgrade/update my navigation system since factory navigation system doesn't cover Canada and map data seems to be old (it's June 98 version). I heavily rely on navigation system when I drive to somewhere I haven't visited before. I know handy GPS might work for the purpose, but I don't like dashboard messing up with handy GPS, power cable, attachment, etc... such disorganize, but I love the factory Nav looking. Last night when I surf on ebay, I found that early model of GS430 navigation display part looks similar to one in my LS400, and I naturally came up with a question; is my nav display and surrounding swap-able with one from GS300/430? If GS navigation display and surroundings are direct "bolt-on" to my LS and it has newer map data, I would consider to purchase. Also I am curous anyone has tried this before... Thanks...
