Default Radio kit for GX 470

I am really regretting not buying a GX with Nav. Therefore, I want to buy a Double Din nav system to put in. The problem is that the Lexus radio is 9 x 5, and doube din is like 7 x 4. Anyone have any idea what I could use to fill the gap?

Try a high end stereo installer, I have seen where they can fabricate to match the interior to cover the gaps.

You may be able to purchase the Prado trim. I was looking at the Toyota Australia site and the trim around the radio should fit. Their NAV system looks like an after market upgrade, much like you'de find in the 4Runner. The trim is black though, but paint may take care of that.

Just a thought and I hope to not create more confusions. I'm thinking of the sienna (since it's double din).
I'll check the sienna and compare with my gx to see how far off/close it is.

Default GX-470 Double Din Kit

I just bought a double din kit from e Bay, it works perfectly for me. I got it from the 12 voltstore-2000 from e Bay, you also need an bypass adaptor in order to install your new radio.
Let me know if you need any help with it.
