Remove 'bumper' for XM install??? Did the VaisTech SL2Vi for my '08 RX (has nav). You most likely will be looking at the SL2i for Ipod along with the XM kit. Did the install myself, more anxiety than it is difficult, takes about 30min. If your doing XM as well, may be longer to route the antenna wire. Though there are very nice write-ups on this procedure you can research, if you would like to discuss this on the phone, give me a call. Not one for writing long narratives. Art: I'll pm you with my tel # if you care to discuss further...

Agree with above statements - run 35psi in my RX. Also keeping up the air pressure helps protect the rim(s) in the event a nasty pothole suddenly appears.

Would appreciate your input if you have experience with this. Considering addding the 'Toyota Harrier' split front spoiler (OE part) to the lower portion of the front bumper. Will this be a 'direct' bolt on type install? What would you need to be remove, if anything, to install. My concern is that along the lower edge of the factory bumper there is a 'molded in' portion (black colored) that runs along the entire bottom and most predominatley visible from the sides that lead towards the middle. Will the 'split front spoiler' be able to attach over the existing bumper. Help would be appreciated before I invest some significant $$$ and find out that the current bumper is not the right one to accept this spoiler. Please no opinions are needed, just the facts from someone who has performed this install... p.s any input on a grille mod would also be appreciated. considering the TC as I would like to retain the 'L' emblem. The other one is also interesting. As it is painted, most likely go with Black - the car color is Bamboo Pearl.

May sound lame, but wrote up a nice reply and when I went to spell check - 'poof' - gone. Just installed a SL2VI in a 2008 RX350. Happy to discuss with you if interested. Hardest part, the anxiety. If basically handy, no more than one hour taking your time. -Art 201-274-5821
