Don't you have power headrests on your LS?

What MFG and Model did you buy? Looking to do the same thing.

That's an interesting point LexusTech117 raises; but rather than make rogue alterations to a system I know technically nothing about, I think it might make sense for us to group together and send Lexus an open letter requesting that they make these features available to those who want them. I'll bet Lexus has received many letters from disappointed folks.

I believe Lexus wants to pursue perfection as much as they do customer satisfaction. If I get 50 or more posts to this subject (50 individuals), I'll be happy to post a letter and provide a way for folks to "digitally sign" the letter.

For the everyday person who buys an LS (or an ES; or any other Lexus for that matter) and wants to use the functions I've mentioned in this section, there's no reason they should resort to hacks, cutting wires or any other third-party work being performed on their cars. Lexus should get in front of this now, before this request becomes something much more formal.

I believe Lexus should allow "unlocking" these features; and if they need to, for their own protection, have the owner sign a waiver, then so be it.

Who else agrees?

I went from the LS430 to the LS460L and am really dissapointed in quite a few technology (or lack there of) issues with the car. the biggest is that there are no hidden buttons to enable the nave while moving like in the LS430. When My wife had a NAV put in her SEQUOIA by the same MFG as the Lexus unit, the simple did something with the brake grounding wire and you can use the unit anytime you want without needing hidden buttons.
