Navigation System
I bought my car without one thing the navigation system. Is it possible to install a navigation system on my Lexus? How much? Is it hard? Any other ideas for that area? Thanks for the help!

Well...Lexus will not install their navigation system on an IS that did not come from the factory with one originally.
So you have two options. You can either buy an aftermarket screen/navagation setup (probably your best bet)
OR
You can buy many of the parts from Lexus like the screen, motor, wiring, etc. and try and build the nav system yourself and keep it looking stock....however...this becomes pricy ...
so you might as well get an aftermarket one so u can get a better nav system and larger screen.
Just my opinion.

Here's a good compromise -- stock NAV screen with aftermarket NAV system.

It still won't be cheap though.

Well that's not my car, and I'm in no way related to the poster, so you might want to head over to is300.net and ask the poster directly. I believe there are instructions on how to build the factory NAV housing if you follow the links.
