i have a working oem sc430 6x9 86160- 0W420 if you want to stay oem. what is your speaker doing? in my opinion it is best not to mix aftermarket and factory system audio parts. they are based on 2 totally different concepts. low watt high effeciency speakers verses high watt low effeciency speakers so trying to mix the 2 usually damages either the speaker or the amp . email at egusman@woh.rr.com and send address . i will send the speaker on approval since you are a club member.................................................................................................. i have all the mark levinson and pioneer system amps and speakers on my numerous bench setups which i use to test the lexus oem navigation systems i retrofit on non nav lexus models. currently working on is350 retrofit of factory nav for non nav is250/350 models. es350 is next. the generation 5 systems are the best yet with 14 speaker dolby 7.1 surround sound. i have already successfully retrofitted all lexus navigation systems from generation 1 to 4 . in my opinion retrofiting the factory navs always have a cleaner look than the aftermarket navigation system instalations and with none of the amp or speaker problems associated with aftermarket installs. also the ac control is often interrupted by aftermarket installs.
