    Anyone Installed Exterior Roof Cab Lights on their 100 series?

    Has anyone installed exterior roof cab lights, like you see on larger trucks, on their 100 series land cruiser or LX 470? I'm interested in doing this to my '02 LX 470 at some point so if you have pics or install tips for wiring and mounting that'd be super helpful. I've seen both 2- and 5-light...

    MFD NAV Screen is Black 2002 LX 470

    Update (sorry this was almost a year later): So I dropped the vehicle off at my local Lexus dealer the day after my last post. When I went to pick the vehicle up, the service manager said they couldn't figure out why it wasn't working and that they recommended replacing the MFD unit (a solid...

    MFD NAV Screen is Black 2002 LX 470

    So I dropped my vehicle back off at my mechanic's shop, but they said they we'rent able to figure out what was going on and said that he was 99% sure only a Lexus dealership could diagnose this since the nav buttons aren't beeping or displaying anything. At least he said they'd reimburse me if...

    MFD NAV Screen is Black 2002 LX 470

    Hey @SWUtah, thanks for your reply! Unfortunately, when I press the Display button (which will only bring up the display adjustments on top of the Info, Audio, and Climate Control screens since the Map, Dest, and Menu buttons don't work) there’s only a "Day Mode" button and "Screen Off" button...

    MFD NAV Screen is Black 2002 LX 470

    Update: - Still no Map/GPS functionality (the Map, Dest, and Menu buttons don't even beep when pressed) - I tested the radio functionality, something I didn't do before, to listen and make sure the radio/cd functions work, and they do - I heard back from my mechanic and they said the only...

    MFD NAV Screen is Black 2002 LX 470

    I started my vehicle yesterday, and the nav screen was black. If I pushed the Climate button, it would bring up the climate control screen and the climate control functions worked. The Audio button also worked and would bring up the audio controls. The Display button worked too and would bring...

    I have not tried using another video-in source, but I believe naviks says it can be done.

    DIY Bluetooth Integration Install 2002 LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    UPDATE regarding the BT-35 not working properly (12/29/2015 post) My Bluetooth functionality has returned. I think my issue was that I had my phone's audio source selected as BT-35 (Bluetooth) and the volume for this source was turned almost all the way down, something I need to do when using...

    DIY Bluetooth Integration Install 2002 LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    Unfortunately I can't speak to the wiring required for the bt-45 unit, and I can't tell from Crutchfield (where I got my bt-35) that you need an adapter. For example, when adding the bt-35 to my cart on the Crutchfield website (with my 2002 LX 470 as my selected vehicle), it prompted me that...

    DIY Bluetooth Integration Install 2002 LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    When you ad the USA Spec iPod or Bluetooth modules, you are essentially adding CD changer inputs. Lets say you add both the iPod and Bluetooth modules, your "DISC" button on the head unit will actually have two sources, CD1 and CD2 (pushing "DISC" button once or twice). So how does this work if...

    DIY Bluetooth Integration Install 2002 LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    @Finsport Unfortunately we didn't do the exact same install. Because I installed USA Spec's iPod module as well, I used the CAS-LEX adapter for that, and then used the CAS-TLC for the BT35. When I first installed the BT35, I could get it to function properly as far as interrupting whatever...

    DIY iPod Integration Install 2002 Lexus LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    Yea, you hit the CD button on the head unit, and then press disc 5. Then you need to make sure the DIP switches are in the appropriate position. I know that Crutchfield says nothing is compatible with your 04 Land Cruiser, but it might be worth a shot trying to use either the CAS-LEX or CAS-TLC...

    DIY iPod Integration Install 2002 Lexus LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    When you say you want an "Aux cable from the factory cd changer to ipod/iphone", do you mean you want to use the CD source as the source for your ipod/iphone? By "Aux cable", do you mean you want to use the additional RCA output on the USA SPEC module instead of the ipod cable? Are you using...

    Pic request: Weathertech "no seats" cargo liner

    I pulled out my third row seats and got the WeatherTech floor liner for my 02 LX. Not great photos, but figured it may help a little.

    DIY Bluetooth Integration Install 2002 LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    Modernizing my 02 LX has been a blast over the past couple months I've had it. I have my backup camera displaying on the nav screen (thank you Naviks) and iPod integration installed (thank you USA SPEC), so naturally Bluetooth hands free calling was next. The USA SPEC BT35-TOY seemed like the...

    DIY iPod Integration Install 2002 Lexus LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    Yea, I rock a 120 GB iPod from 2009, but otherwise I'd just get the adapter if I wanted to use it on my iPhone or newer Apple device: http://www.apple.com/shop/product/MD823AM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter?fnode=45

    DIY iPod Integration Install 2002 Lexus LX 470 w/ Factory Nav

    The sound quality is very good. You can definitely hear some signal noise if the volume is loud, but depending on the kind of music, you don't notice it as much. Meaning, the more instrument tracks there are in a given song, the less noticeable the signal noise is, but again, only when the...

    Window Tint on Black LX/LC

    @bozncsurf - Yea, the factory tint is underneath the new tint. It makes the mirrored factory tint look much better. I've always thought that the older factory mirrored tint from Lexus looked kind of odd, and when I got one of these LX's for myself, I wasn't sure how new tint would look on top of...

    Window Tint on Black LX/LC

    In case anyone is thinking about getting window tint for their vehicle, but aren't sure because of how it might look or how dark it may be, I've attached some photos for reference. I have an 02 LX and I recently had my windows tinted. I went with 20% on the front, 20% on the rear, and a 20%...
