Reviving an old thread to say "Thanks"! I just followed these directions to replace the 8 year old DVD in my 2003 LS430! The directions were perfect. puchukni: You do not have to remove any clips from the back of the trunk. MotionMan

Is there any way to stop radio text messages and/or to delete stored radio text messages on my 2003 LS430 with NAV? Thanks. MotionMan

Does anyone know if this procedure is the same, or similar, on the 2003 LS 430? MotionMan

Is it necessary to get these cut? Can't I just take the blade out of the old shell and put it in the new one (with the electronics from the old shell)? MotionMan

Has anyone ever bought one of these? http://tinyurl.com/ydf4md (link to ebay auction) If so, how doyou like it? MotionMan

:cries: :cries: Oops. I got it a little wrong. First you hit the [Option] button, then [information] (aka [info]). MotionMan

In my 2003, the cup holder is pretty sensitive, popping back out about 1/3rd of the time. Try pressing harder, softer, more to the left, more to the right, etc. Good luck. MotionMan

I was affraid it would not work on my car, too. I was pleased to find the "Info, Language" hack since the "Volume" hack does not seem to work in my car. MotionMan

So "your passenger" can use the navigation system, without limitation, while the vehicle is in motion. MotionMan

I have been able to successfully use the Navigation Motion Lock-Out Override in my 2003 LS430. I had to try a few differnt methods, but I am now able to do it almost 100% of the time, whether I (or my passenger) attempt the override while the car is moving or not. Here is the sequence I used: 1. Press [iNFO] Button; 2. Press "Language" (this should bring you to the main screen..."English..French..I Agree"; 3. Press Upper Left Corner; 4. Press Lower Left Corner; 5. Press Upper Left Corner; 6. Press Lower Left Corner; 7. Press Lower Right Corner; 8. Press and *HOLD* (for 5 to 10 seconds) the "Override" button until it beeps and changes color; 9. Press [iNFO] Button; 10. Press "Language"; 11. Press "I Agree". That does it. Again, your passenger can do this override while the car is moving, too! Of course, you have to repeat this each time you turn the car off and on again, with one caveat: When the "English..French..I Agree" screen comes up when you turn on the car, you can start at step 3 above.

I bought the offering from ProClip and am very happy with it. The location is good, the angle is good (with the adjustable set) and, with the car charger option, I only need to plug in the headset and drop the phone into the unit and I am ready to go. With all the bluetooth phones etc., I do not expect there to be a unit with a built-in headset plug, so I think I have found my solution. Thanks for the suggestions. MotionMan

Thanks for the suggestion. I agree that the base for the 430 is not at a great angle. Also, I know it sounds crazy, but I prefer wired headsets over the bluetooth ones. I am currently leaning towards the ProClip solutions. I also was looking at some of the solutions from Seidio, but I do not think that they have what I am looking for. Any others that people would recommend? MotionMan

I just got a 2003 LS430 and use a Treo 650. I am trying to find the best option for mounting my phone while driving. I want to be able to charge the 650 and use my *wired* headset. I do not like vent mounts. Any thoughts? MotionMan
