I used to have a BMW L6 (special edition 635) that had something line that. It had a special A/C condensor that cooled the console between the rear seats. the space was big enough for a bottle and two glasses.

The 430 Ultra Luxury has a cool box between the rear passenger seats. I don't think it was intended to cool your drinks down, but only to keep them cold once already cool. It's only operational when the rear A/C system in on. I find it kind of funny that the plastic box is molded to hold a six pack of cans. I guess this would be one way to identify a stolen LS430 when you find the cooler box full of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer!

Default new ideas!

I was wondering how you're lincense plate project worked or what else some others have done on here??? Here's a website to order a small fridge unit/warmer, would be perfect for what others were talking about for chilled wine or whatever in center console! Only 37.00! I've ordered stuff from this site before for these cool/pointless projects for my lex....

This is the same kind of device (Peltier Cooler) that is used in the front climate control seats. I wonder if adding one of these to the LS430 coolbox would make it a true fridge.

As for my stealth license plate project, I posted pictures here https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...threadid=97202

Alright! that does look good...congrats on how clean it looks also! I'm going to look into the same thing!
I think that cooler would work fine....is a bit bulky, but always lots of room under console...or could be with some modification. Any other additions to your car? other than already on the thread of course!
How about interior pictures?

also the site you provided for the privacy glass doesn't offer the product anymore and i'm having a really hard time finding them in 12 x 6 sizes...everything is for residential or business use as privacy windows! Any sources?

I'm always thinking up new modifications for my LS. I just love my interior lighting in Raybrig Hyper Green bulbs. So my latest is interior LED floor lighting in selectable 7 colors and wireless under car LED lighting kit. Before you dis me for making a ricey LS430, let me explain. The interior modificaiton is (2) 15" LED tubes up under the front dash area and (2) 10" tubes under the drivers and front passanger seats for rear floor lighting. With these PlasmaGlow LED kits the tubes are wired with my own relays to the interior lights to glow green with interior lighting. Only the under car kit side tubes glow green when the side mirror foot lighting is ON, also in Raybrig Hyper Green (so it's for safer entry and exit), but any of the 7 colors can be turned on from the controllers inside center console or from the key chain remote.

I've also been thinking about using PlasmaGlow's door handle kit, but the LS430 doesn't have the cup type handle and would require drilling the back side of the door handle to get the LED's in. I'm not crazy about this idea.

I have never seen anything wrong with lighting a Lex...as long as tasteful and the bulbs are well hidden. I don't like it when you can see the light source! I'm having a lot of trouble tracking down the same 3M Privacy Film....still looking though...not so much for the use of it as I like the show look of it, pretty cool feature.
