I sold my GX470 before I could complete the swap out of the head unit and the person who bought it wanted to keep factory Nav. Don't ask. Anyway - their poor decision making paradigm is your gain.
This is a combined packaged deal and should be everything you need to switch your existing Nav unit to a non-Nav head unit.
The first part is the relatively easy to find bit: the SLA-81/SLX-82A conversion kit. This part is two pieces:
1) the SLA-81 is the new non-nav faceplate
2) the SLX-82A is the compatible harness adapter for NA spec Lexus/Toyotas like the GX470 has.
Part two was the harder to find bit... all the pieces from a NON-Nav GX470 that needed to be swapped in.... Especially the climate control unit.... that's the big ingredient to making this swap possible. So, with that I am also including:
1) The lower climate control unit from a 2004 GX470
2) Left and right side mounting brackets to hold Non-Nav components vs Nav mounts
3) Non-Nav wiring harness to plug it all together.
The SLA/SLX kit costs about $400 shipped. I'll let you call the local lexus dealer and ask the parts guy how much the last three items cost - I promise it is a teeny bit over $100 - try "prohibitively priced if available at all". I spent 18 months find these little fellas and getting the kit together - I figured $500 with shipping included was an easy price. If anyone has a better idea or thinks I'm on the pipe speak up.
I'll ship it for you this week.... got nothing else going on.... oh wait.... nope... nothing.
