Default 3rd es300 nav?

Well I was wondering if there is a screen in the middle like all the new cars that can find for my 00 es300. The one thing is I want it to play my music too also matching my wood trim. Is it possible?

Not possible in north america.

This was an OEM option, or feature on the toyota windom [ie. JDM ES300] in Japan.

Best bet is to go aftermarket, and have a wood bezel made to match.

You're referring to this?



I'm intrigued by the fact that nav was offered on these ES's/Windoms, but even more so intrigued by that double din wood bezel that is seemingly OEM...

One of the early/former ES members referred us to these guys, who sell them, but by the time I was ready to buy they'd run out of stock and their website says they're still out.

Now I guess the site is just a great way to look at what we can't have anymore. Does anyone know of another source for this? I think it meets the OP's needs exactly.

Oh wow that is sweet I had no idea the older ES's had nav available (even if not in the U.S.). Funny thing is the menus and screen look identical to a eclipse double din unit I had a while back. That wood bezel would be an amazing find for someone looking to do a double din nav. Man I wish I could find one of those.

I stumbled across this on ebay. The unit looks almost identical to the units pictured above in the 3ES's. This is one out of an 02+ but im guessing they are not compatible.

I saw your tints looking nice. What are they 10s? Anyways I've looked at it and it's not a right fitting on the 3ES.

We have that stock nav in our 03 ES. It is very good, even after all these years it's still working like new and has never presented a problem routing us all over the Northeast. However, I imagine it would be a ***** to put in a 3rd Gen ES.

If you click the respecting link in my sig you'll see the unit I put in my ES. It is fantastic, everything I wanted and more.
