Default change nav screen background

Hello All,

Just got my 07 ES350. I thought it would be cool to change the background ofthe navi screen to something different. Is there any way to do this? Is it possible to keep the Lexus logo on the screen like the one that appears when you first start the car or is there any way to load a "screen saver"?

I'm pretty sure there is a way as I have seen NAVI screens hacked to show up everything from a computer-like startup sequence, to the driver's name, to something out of 2001 A Space Odyssey...

...of course, it requires serious hacking...

Congratulations on your new ES!

Andddd, you want to keep the lexus logo on the screen for what reason?? So you can look at the nav and be reaffirmed that you are driving a lexus?

Why not? The Lexus logo that appears on the NAVI screen is very nice!

Anything besides the display screen, the map screen, or audio screen would be nice. I don't need directions to where I'm going every time I go for a drive, ya know? I'm stoked about my first Lexus, so I suppose the novelty of ownership hasn't quite worn off yet. I take it you don't know how to do this?
