Default First time Lexus owner....

I am a first time Lexus owner. Just bought my wife an 06 GS300 AWD, with navigation, but no ML ;-(. I will do my best to serch forum before asking dumb questions...lol

If any immediate tips come to mind, please send 'em my way (especially interior/exterior cleaning tips)

First dumb question.. Will the navigation video converter units that are on the market void my factory warranty?

Thanks... and looking forward to trying to be a good member of the forum.

welcome to clublexus, enjoy your stay here!

well, technically anything aftermarket, if they prove to be the source of the problem, they can void your warranty. but if you get plug and play kits then it's usually pretty safe.

I just picked up a 06 GS300 AWD too! I don't have Navigation though. I wonder if there is anything I can do with the screen other than just watch my MPG go left to right...not very entertaining.

I'm reading through some threads about the ability to hook up iPOD video to it, but so far haven't found anything.
