Thanks,

Bob - sounds very expensive. Let me ask, do you have a center speaker on the dash? At minimum, you would be adding a new amplifier, new head unit and new speakers all around. This is a very expensive option to do aftermarket through Lexus. I think you would be better off just upgrading everything with aftermarket speakers, a new headunit and another amp.

Good Luck.

No center speaker on non ML units.

It would be a lot cheaper to go aftermarket. I mean ml system is very good but for the money, you can do a lot better and i'm pretty sure a lot cheaper than going through a dealership.
