Welcome to Clublexus.

Unfortunately, the harness is different including close to $3000 in parts makes the project cost and labor prohibitive.

It is extremely difficult because of the harness like Grand LS 4 said. I would rather buy a nice external navigation system (7" and bigger). You can update the maps easier and the interface will look sharper (more than likely) compared to the pre-2007 Lexus vehicles. Just my two cents
