Actually, I keep opening the sunroof looking for the garage door opener. The buttons should be backlit. And I agree, the interior lights are dimmer than a $5 booklight. Trunk light is too dim also. -- Still love the ride, though. Most things are perfect. More and more it sounds like a nice car but the interior engineering was done by a committee of monkeys!

Thanks, it is a nice car but the nav system sucks. As I said at the beginning, my handheld Garmin Nuvi 360 with Bluetooth is far superior! As a side issue, if you have an Es350, how many times have you turned on the interior lights when trying to open the garage door? Awful design!

How did you accomplish this? Maybe the fact that you did this hack affected the operation of the GPS system?? Why don't you bring the car into your dealer and have them check out this problem? How long has this Wal-Mart been at this location? Reason being, if the DVD Nav disc was produced before this retailer was located there, it won't be included in the information displayed on your NAV screen. Naw, the thing can't find streets that have been there for 15 years! Also I did find my WalMart in the data base but I had to dig very deep. When I told the Lexus rep about the WalMart issue seh said, "Mine did the same thing but there's a way to fix that." When I asked how she did it she replied that she doesn't remember since she knows where it is! That tells me that the Lexus rep even gave up on it. There are two ways around the speed switch. One involves cutting a wire which I won't do. The other uses the touch screen and is well documented on the internet. Only thing is that you have to do it each time you start the car.

Are you sure that you have the proper zone set? I do. Turns out that Atlanta is in the same zone.

The GPS navigation system in my ES 350 is driving me nuts! The mechanization of the system almost makes it useless. I found out how to override the spees lock but thats it. Many times I get the voice to tell me "navigation cannot be provided in this area." Then the silly thing continues to display the proper street name! I live in North Carolina 5 miles from Wal Mart. I asked the system to take me to WalMart. It called up a store in Atlanta! Over 250 miles away! I wrote to Lexus and when the nice lady called me she said since it's not broken there's nothing we can do. I bought a hand held Garmin Nuvi and it's GREAT. Simple to use and finds everything. Is there a rocket scientist out there who really can work this thing? Roger
