I'm sure it's been mentioned already, but how do you change the startup?

Just throwing it out there, the USB thumbdrive MUST be USB2.0 and NOT USB 3.0 and MUST be FAT32 and not NTFS... If it is USB 3.0 drive or NTFS, it won't show up on the car system.

One thing that frustrates the heck out of me is that my 2017 headunit, while larger (10.3"), it seems impossible to fill the screen with a custom image (for either startup or screen off) - Lexus did NOT update the image display logic to take into account the new aspect ratio (which I would approximate as 21:9.
If I go to anything above a 16:9 ratio (i.e. 18:9, 21:9, etc) or 1600 wide x 900 tall, the stupid software letterboxes the darn image above an below (as well as the sides).

<rant>
Stupid Lexus, just dumb. Argh.

A couple of F SPORT logos with a black background I mocked up. They look great as the car starts up:

First 2 are not F-Sport and would not put them in a non-F Car.
F-Sport and F are very, very different IMHO.

I had my ex-wife on the screen for awhile. Forgot to change it when I started to date again. My date was in the car, started it up and a red light went off in my head. Let's just say the first kiss was a long one until the screen changed.

I should put a pic of my ex-wife on the screen. Luckily I have a 2017, and the screen is really wide, so her butt might fit.

For now I have my GF - way way easier on the eyes (and the wallet) LOL
