OEM or aftermarket it dont matter. just wanna see what the majority of LS400 owners are running.

im stock for now, hoping to do a carpc but space is too small to fit even a 7inch touchscreen in there.

Running stock...LS came without CD so i purchased from someone on this board years back a Pioneer head unit with CD controls and the trunk mounted 6 CD changer....changed out a bad sub and rear speaker and it's sounds decent enough for me to leave it alone (which i would not have done in my youth BTW Lived 35 years on LI...Island Park....back there 2-3 times a year still.

I'm pretty sure the 7" screen can fit. I'm using a Pioneer avic-d3 w/ipod cable

I have a 90's Blaupunkt CD player that was top of the line back then and can still hold it's own today. Has RDS and all that crap, a billion presets, reads most burned CDs, but most importantly it has preamp out and aux in, so I can use my ipod.

I just picked up a Metra dash kit that I want to cut up, and now I'm shopping around for a double DIN in-dash DVD player. Next up will be speakers, and then a single 12" sub that hits really hard.

I have an Eclipse CD3000, but I'm debating to save up for a OEM Toyota NAV off a Sienna/Camry or a Eclipse AVN series.
