Wouldn't that have an effect on some of your screen controls?

I Have to be honest, I don't think that looks good, it looks very crappy for a Lexus, it doesn't fit the image!

you do realize the picture has shadows right? the plastic fits the face of the deck, i see in the pic it looks like the plastic is jagged, etc.. and no it doesnt have anything to do with the operation of the A/C or the screen.

Hey, get off his back.... It's his car, and if he feels the need to do something like this then, to each his own.... But Disco, what were you thinking???

Don't you go cutting down others... I personally think that "crap" you just mentioned is a nice setup... Take some notes from Shonuff he'll point you in the right direction... This is ClubLexus.. I place to share our experiences and learn from others.. Weather it be from there mishaps or successes. We're Fam here.... Speak your mind, but don't go bashing others. Just like you don't like it, neither does anyone else...

That picture was of a work in progress.

The individual that gave five star ratings (2 of them) for that
picture was banned about 2 months ago for his inappropriate
posts, so his opinion doesn't really count here anymore.

disco, you've posted in a public forum. You must expect a
variety of responses. Defend your choice, but please don't
point fingers elsewhere.

Please note: The first person to reply to your very first post
was Shonuff, the guy whose picture you called crap.

Do you believe in Karma?

mrsypher, sorry your right i did take a littke offense to some of the remarks and did choose poor language about the other persons vehicle. sorry to the owner. but i wish people would realize it is ALOT harder to make changes to your vehicle and keep as close to stock as possible, than to take the stock stuff out and create new panels.

Disco, trust me I know how it hard it is... I'm a MOD junkie and I'll try almost anything to my cars to make them better, even if it takes something breaking and me having to pay money to have it repaired.. Alot of people here know this. And with the RX it's hard to replace the radio. I wanted to replace the radio in my last 2 RX's and I had no luck doing it.. Even the shops out here wouldn't touch it.. I give it to you, atleast you tried... And as for telling you a better place to put a head unit, I can't.... But others will shed some light and help you out...

Paddy, what's this Daddy-O thing you got going on?? I saw Daddy-O Peoples Mod and was like WTF???
