If I wanted to install a factory navigation system from a 2000 GS300 into another 2nd gen GS300 that does not have navigation from factory. What all will I need to do this?

 

dude for the love of god search....this has go to be the 20th post in the last year about switching/swapping nav's.

its doable but not $ effective.

 

Might as well buy a double din dash kit and a pioneer double din deck that has navigation. The the second generation gs300 navigation are piece of crap! I hate me GPS!

 

yes its very hard you have to make a wire harness that goes from the deck and amp to the navi brain in the trunk i am in the process of trying to get it to work so i can sell my old stock navi

As a sample..I called lexus a couple of years ago to do just this on an SC400 that had the radio stolen, I was quoted 1400.00 JUST for the wire harness that goes from the dash to the rear, no Nav Components or anything, just wire harness....OUCH!

 

Aftermarket is the way to go.

 

Yes, as answered many times in the past it will be wiser to go after-market...

 

Hey Tom? There is a purple wire with white stripe that runs from the trunk to the head unit. Any knowledge on where that purple wire with white stripe might be located on the head unit?

I saw my head unit and there was a loose purple wire with a white stripe.

 

buuuump!!!!!
