Post How to change the Navigation DVD

This question is for 2007 RX 350.

I have the navigation DVD but not sure how to change it. Does it stay permanently in the car. If so how do I eject the old one and insert the new one. Can somebody please share the steps?

Ok. I found the instructions here: http://www.sewellpartsonline.com/imp...ationGuide.pdf

It says

Disengage the 2 clips and 2 guides, and remove
the front console box cover.
I don't know where that is. Could anybody here help me understand the location and how exaclty to reach the nav computer?

Welcome to Clublexus. Just a couple of tips.

Search Google prior to posting any questions. If you have no luck. Check the owners manual. If that doesnt have it. Use the search function on Clublexus.

Every question you could possibly think of asking. Ever. Has already been answered. This way you wont have to wait.

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...vd-update.html

1) Remove rear tool tray( NAV DVD player is underneath)

a)fold down rear seats

b)find velcro tabs on each side of rear tray cover where it meets back seats

c)lift velcro tabs

d)slide fingers gently along edge where rear cover meets rear seats to release 5 plastic push pins.

e)Use 12mm socket to remove the 2 now visible hinge bolts

f)remove tool tray cover

g) remove tool tray, There are 2 black push pin on both sides that pry up easily. NAV DVD player should now be visible on passenger side

2) Put ignition in ACC position

3) If there is a dust cover on unit remove it. Mine did not have this. Some do.

4) There should be a "slide type button" on your left of the unit. Slide this button to your left(facing unit). DVD should eject

5) Insert new DVD

6) Slide button back to original position

7) allow NAV to update before turning off ignition( check NAV Screen)

8) Reassemble in reverse order.

Here is a acrobat document that shows the location and procedure to change out the DVD on most all Lexus vehicles:
