So what are some the computer upgrades that can be done? 1) Like turn off the 2nd annoying seat belt warning. 2) Make auto wipers come on sooner and more wipes. 3) same with auto headlights come on sooner. More?

In past years it has been possible to turn off the Vehicle Speed Linked Seat Belt Reminder Buzzer but I don't see that listed for the 2019 models. I always liked that because it turned off the buzzer while keeping the warning light operational. With the advent of the buzzer being speed linked, turning it off is of lesser importance anyway. By the time to get to the set speed - maybe 12 mph - you should probably have your belt on anyway.

I always increase the number of flashes on a lane change signal. Beyond that with a little thought I usually find most settings to be well thought out.

There is a separate thread discussion for this item, but I REALLY want a way to show my mobile device contact image on inbound and outbound calls while the vehicle is in motion. It is so much efficient for me to recognize an image when a call is coming in vs. reading the name. I feel like my eyes are off the road too long. Additionally the type related to the phone functionality is very small on the HUDs. The spouse's 2019 Volvo S60 has more prominent phone/audio data in the HUDs with a smaller overall image on the windshield - go figure.

I need to get the dealer to turn off the seat belt chime completely. When I put the dog carrier in the back seat, the chime loudly sounds for way too long.

Will the dealer on the first service mute the seat belt chime?

We had to buckle the back seat belts for much the same reason. Let me know if you get the dealer to turn this off.

For safety reasons, disabling the seat belt chime is not an option under the normal Lexus personalized settings service. Although some have said that their dealer did so. (Personally, I would question the ethics of that dealer.) Some have suggested that a workaround, although I highly discourage it, is to pick up a seat belt extender or an an inexpensive seat clip like this and leave it plugged in. But, even these come with a warning to not use when a passenger is in the seat.

I usually open the back door and put my coat, etc. on the seat. When I start engine, I do not get a seatbelt chime. I do see the seatbelt icon warning though.

From the manual: : Rear passengers’ seat belt warning buzzer:
The rear passengers’ seat belt warning buzzer sounds to alert the rear passengers that his
or her seat belt is not fastened. The buzzer sounds once if the vehicle reaches a speed of 12
mph (20 km/h). If the seat belt is still unfastened after 24 seconds, the buzzer will sound
intermittently for 6 seconds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfastened, the buzzer will sound in
a different tone for 30 more seconds.
