Any change in the status of reproducing the louver attachment? I've found myself in the same predicament and could use some help. Thanks.

I bought a well-cared for 2000 LS400 Platinum edition (without the navigation) with 68,000 miles in January of 2007, and I've only come across two real issues so far: 1) The potentiometer on the Nakamichi stereo's volume knob is wearing down 2) The "one-click" syndrome when starting the engine (typically a problem with the starter); I still need to get this problem fixed, but the car has yet to leave me stranded. I don't know if either of these are chronic problems with this generation of the LS's, but it is one of the best cars I've owned - hands down. - gogetter "Quality is never an accident"

I just noticed your question about installation. If you are at all handy the installation is a snap. If not, I would venture to say that any car audio place that knows it's stuff would have no problem at all installing the unit. Regarding price, I think the unit is about $400. I got a better deal because I drove up to him and played guinea pig to see if his stuff worked okay so I don't know the exact price. His name is Jon August. jashev, I've already contacted Jon about the RX400h application of the Sirius XM unit and I'm awaiting his response. In the meantime, do you have any photos of the finished product in your 400h (e.g. main unit installation and power wires, antenna pass-through to the interior, connections to radio) so I may know what the install should look like? I am leaving tomorrow and will be out of town until Friday AM, however I would be happy to take some shots then and email them to you. In reality, there is not much to see. The xm unit is located under the rear floor near the right rear tire well, the antenna runs through the hatch and to a low profile antenna mounted behind the GPS antenna. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. - gogetter "Quality is never an accident" Thanks for the reply, jashev. Jon says that he is working on a kit for the Lexus RX400h and it should be available in the next few weeks. Maybe he'll have an instruction booklet/DVD that will guide me through the installation process. Otherwise, I may have to take you up on your offer to send some pictures of your install. Thanks again... - gogetter "Quality is never an accident"
