Default 2001 Lexus GS430 Silver thxn CL

Thanks for all the DIY's CL.

I was able to do the following by myself:
- Kenwood DNX7100 install
- Center Console light bulb change

I'm now just waiting on the actuators to come and i'll have to change all 4 doors.

Just finished washing, claying, and waxing. Also did the Headlight restore with Plasticx.

Clean factory GS, although the mats need attention. Lights look clear.

Did my lights last Sunday with Meguire's headlight restore. Amazing how good they came out. I always hated the dingy haze that was on them. Took longer to blue tape the paint around the lights than to actually do it. Very good under $30 mod/clean up. Guess it's not really a mod but more of a maintenance thing. Light output went up a lot too.

Next i need to clay bar my car.. maybe this weekend if the weather stays the same. Always Sunny in Cali

Nice job! Doesn't doing your own work make the car that much cooler?
