Lane Keep Assist
Hi.
I bought my 2010 LS460 L in August 2016 and have been wondering if the LKA can be added since I have adaptive cruise control? I saw a YouTube video about this but I am still unclear if you can change out the button for ACC to the one that has both ACC and LKA and it would work.
Is is this a pipe dream that anyone can help validate if it would work?
any help and/or thoughts is appreciated.
Thanks,
Cubby

Lexus LS600 with APCS (advanced pre-collision system) and driver attention monitor (the row of LED's on the steering column) ..see picture above.. can use the system. I should think it also can be retrofitted on the LS 460 ( on 2010 model) if they have factory installed APCS and the driver attention monitor

Hi Cubbylex, I checked photos of your beautiful car. It does not have the advanced pre-collision package (stereo cameras above rear view mirror), so you cannot replace the ACC button with the ACC/LKA button and get the LKA function activated.

Thanks Arvid and comotiger. LKA is the only feature I really miss my car.
I have read Arvid's post on LKA. Based on that, I assume driver attention monitor is prerequisite to LKA. However reading comotigers post, adv pre collision (stereo cameras above rear view mirror) is prerequisite. My car do have camera above rear view mirror. Will I be able to 'add' LKA?.
This is the only feature makes me to look for newer cars. If I can solve this, will save $25k !!!!!!!! . Pl help me save that 25k ...

I'm actively looking at a 2013+ LS currently and, while it isn't a crucial need, it is shockingly difficult to find a LS with LKA. I think it is a cool feature, test drove an Infiniti with LKA and I can see how it is a useful function. Combine that with the fact that most of us LS owners keep these vehicles for a long time, we *shouldn't* have to jimmy-rig this vehicle to have a function that most other vehicles have as a standard function. I'd argue LKA would be a more useful and used feature compared to adaptive cruise.
Anyway /endrant just wishing there were more LS units with LKA; I'm not even to find too many new ones with this function. Yet it is standard (as far as I understand) with brand new Avalon's 2016 onwards.

But if you are sure your car has the stereo cameras but not the DAM or LKA, I am willing to hazard a guess that you can indeed install a functioning LKA button as Arvid did. Whether the Japanese supplier is still selling this button assembly remains to be seen. Note however also that while having a functional LKA option is great, the dash light will still not work, and you won't get the LKA graphics on the dash display.

For 4LS cars, these options are found in less than 5% (my guess) of the vehicles. So, very rare indeed

If you wait another year to trade-in, I think you could get an awesome deal on a depreciated G90 that would have all the bells and whistles that you want such as LKA, and others that are not available in the 2013+ LS460s such as massaging front seats, surround view cameras, multicolored ambient lighting, and a fully digital instrument cluster. Oddly enough, the G90 dispensed with the rear seat entertainment system found in the 2016 Equus, which was a bad move IMO. When I bought my 2014 LS a year ago, I was tempted by the G90, but ultimately I just didn't want to wait another 2-2.5 years before I could start driving a car with all these options.

Thanks everyone who contributed to this question. The knowledge here is amazing and clear.
I didn't think it would be as easy as changing a button.
