Default New RX owner!

Hi everyone,
I just took delivery of my new black ext/int 2010 RX 350, nav, ML audio system - 23,000 miles and in great condition! I'm loving the car and am already contemplating the first mods. Along with the Prestigious Society Module (should arrive tomorrow) I think that LED interior lights are the next upgrade. I've seen prior threads detailing this, but the links to appropriate bulbs either show out of stock or unavailable. I would be very grateful if someone could refer me to either a thread or other resource to find the appropriate bulbs for the various locations.

Like others, I'm surprised that there is no factory change holder. I guess I will buy something to put inside the center console. Also, am I missing something, or is there no trip odometer in the instrument cluster?

Thanks everyone. Looking forward to joining the community. I'll post some pictures of my new acquisition soon.

congrats! i'm hoping to join you soon too!

the coin holder is usually a seperate piece, that sits within the center console...
the trip odo is a little button to the left of the steering wheel, by the gas cap button

(if you don't mind, would you please PM me what you paid? would love a good comparison!)

Thanks a lot! Good luck with your negotiations. I will look for the odometer button tonight on my commute home tonight! I think I know what you mean about the piece inside the center console - you must mean that small tray that can be lifted out. That's quite silly, though, as who would want other things to just rest on top of a tray of coins. I think I'll try to find something better than that.

PM sent with regard to what I paid...

There is a separate coin holder/tray that was installed in the later production 10's.

Congrats! Can you please PM how much you paid? We expecting our first newborn in Jan and after extensive researching I've decided that a '10/11 RX 350 is the route to go but I've seen the prices vary here in South FL so I can't get an good read on this.

Thanks!!

I found one for 17.95 + 6.95 shipping. I thought it would be cheaper then that.

If the tray is OEM it is probably a bargain. Try getting a sunshade for under 25.00 plus shipping.
