I just picked up a 2006 GS300 awd from the local auction for the wife. Its Cypress pearl with a tan interior fairly loaded no nav (from what they say as I have yet to see the car upp close) but has the ML stereo. Its got 51k on the odometer and I paid 16,400.00 for it. This is my first Lexus as I am usualy a BMW or MB owner. I look forward to not having it in the shop every two months as I hear Lexus build quality is awsome.
Ok now on to my questions.
1.) I know factory Nav is outragous to add and probly not worth it. But can I add video in capabilities for movie palyback, rear camera or aftermarket Nav to a non Nav GS?
2.) Does anyone make headrest DVD player?

Thanks in advance!!
Keith

Congrats and welcome to Club Lexus! Wow! ML with no Nav is super rare.

Regarding your questions, 1. Yes it's possible with products from VaisTech. 2. I have no idea. I think your only option is something custom.

Congrats on the new car.

Yes you can tap into the monitor. Aftermarket DVD just go to your local custom stereo shop and they will help you. Our glove box makes for a good place for a aftermarket DVD player.

Post up pics when you have this done

Thanks all!! I think part if the reason I got a great deal is the color. Most people walked away when they saw the combo of the color and miles. I will say it is an odd color but I think it will grow on me......I hope.
