In Dash Nav System
I have a 2000 LX470. Love it, except gas mileage. As I use it as car 3, only put about 5,000 a year on it, so gas is not an issue.
No GPS was available in 2000. In 2001 it was I believe it was a $2500 option!
I just did lots of research on adding an In Dash GPS. I did not want a portable as these get stolen alot, and this Lexus is parked outside. Also, my Nakamichi disc changer was stuck, and not worth the $500 for an overhaul, with labor.
I installed the Pioneer F700bt. Unit was about $500.
It has GPS, Ipod connections, Bluetooth, CD, Am and Fm, SD card input.
Pioneer makes higher end units, for more features, the 700 is their lower unit.
Works great. ALSO-
I am looking for a plastic trim cover part that fell off my luggage rack, the left rear?
