hmmm... i've wondered how i could improve my console area with my aftermarket setup, and i like what you did brian. however, for me to accomplish that i'd have to get a new headunit, as mine is too long to sit back like yours is. great work on the LEDs as well.

all headunits are normal din size, unless you have a tv.

very nicely done brian!

If we wait long enough do you think we'll see that led lighting setup on lextech.org? I know a few lexus buyers in Colorado that are tired of the yellow interior lighting.

BTW im always getting compliments on the guages and all 3 of my lexus dealerships are familiar with your work.

Here's the difference in the headlights and stock city lights from a little distance.

my head unit is a din size as well, but it is very deep so it has no room to move any further back when it's located at the top.

Ever notice that the SC's lights from head on at night look like an S2k's?

Maybe the S2K's look like the SC's.

Might want to be carefull playing with the city lights Brian. Too bright and it will create glare on the cutoff line.

Wow all that lighting is great, but a little too extreme for me. I like the clean white but don't like blinding myself in the night everytime I open my door. Although, I guess you could always wear your sunglasses at night
