If I install the diode, can I still use a non-AGM battery? Or am I committing myself to AGM only while its installed?

I should update this, I took a page from this post, and used magnets and door hinges to mount a CarPlay screen in front of my stock navigation, and am really happy with the results! My phone connects to the screen and my (previously installed) BT45-TOY Bluetooth box, and everything works...

What do you mean by can of worms? I'm not looking to replace any of the stock hvac controls.

Hey all - I've been thinking about trying to install a CarPlay screen on my LX 470 ('04 factory nav). Having owned it for a while, I realize that I basically never use the factory screen for anything. My thought was to mount a CarPlay screen in front of it, (such that it's in the red box) but...

I'm looking to buy the Ridies replacement covers for my 470. Has anyone chosen the "genuine" leather instead of the nappa? It looks like the Nappa would be smooth and a closer to OEM look/feel. They say that the genuine leather has a textured finish but is more durable. Trying to decide...

Hey all - About 6 weeks ago I installed a BT45-TOY Bluetooth adapter in my '04 LX470, it worked beautifully. Yesterday I noticed that now when I'm playing any audio through the bluetooth connection there is static / crackling / electronic whine from the passengers side speakers. When I...

Just wanted to say thanks again to Red Beard. Used this thread today. Was able to install the BT45-TOY in about 30 minutes. Really quite straight forward and really happy with the quality.

Bought a set like this from eBay. If I had to do it again I think I would have gotten a glass set, and put paint protection film on them to help prevent rock chips...

Thanks! I'm super happy with the outcome. Makes driving at night far more enjoyable

I'll get some shots taken

One other nice option Tom gave me was the ability to use all four projectors for both low and high beams. The projectors have a sharp low beam cut off so I've verified I'm not blinding anyone but they cast a ton of light.

Talking to Tom, they do more LED setups these days than Xeon. I didn't give it a ton of additional thought. Important to note that the projectors he installed have integrated LED light sources, so they are not a H1 bulb.

They received the headlights from me on April 13th, and the completed lights arrived my house on the 26th, so under two weeks.

$1050 I bought a set of lights from eBay and had them shipped directly to Tom. He then shipped the completed lights to me.
