Default 2000 Celsior slow build

So I finally had some time to take pics of my vehicle. This build will be slow and the look I'm going for is an updated oem look. I already love the way it looks just want to make it look 2016 ish not 90s haha if it's possible so here are some photos....

Anyone know what these are. I'm guessing it's the navigation? As th amp is underneath drivers seat. The other photo is opposite side of the vehicle trunk. Also couldn't find air suspension switch in the trunk.

Mini update just moved to new spot and finally had time to un box these. We're sitting in garage for about 4 months. F sport full face staggered forged wheels. 19x8 in the front and 19x9 in the back +40 for all wheels. I want to run a 40 series tire but we will see what I decide in the end.

The upper photo shows the TV/navi unit. The small unit at the right side is called "Free TVing" which makes it possible to work the TV while driving.
Regarding the air suspension switch in the trunk, any UCF21 doesn't have it any more.

So I changed the oil this weekend and filter and noticed this car is dam clean underneath. I'll post more pictures in a bit. Used Mobil 1 extended performance with extended performance oil filter as seen below. Changing oil took a bit as first time doing it on this vehicle. Manual suggested 5w-20 with 5.6 litres of oil with filter change.

I took off the panel to get access for the oil change was missing nothing. . Liked how Toyota had drain horses for the different fluids never seen that before. I will have a more exciting update in a couple days. Got vtr adapter to play music off iPod or any apple devices. Will show what I'm talking about later. Also forgot to mention I'll be posting some videos on YouTube already have one up for the rims I bought I believe videos are better than just pictures.

Changed cabin filter for a blitz hybrid filter. Since the car was sitting for a really long time thought it would need a change. Installed beatsonic avc34 adapter to play iPod or any other device that uses rca input.

Tried to to go through the center console but none of the parts fit properly so when through the back as seen in the first picture.

decided to take some photos of the beat sonic adapter. Cost 25 bucks I think it says only for ucf30/31 but works for 20/21. Used apple rca adapter to plug in apple device and works good.










Vitto to thinks it's a job well done
