Anyone here with a GS350 with AVS? I see the option, but when I check
inventories no one seems to stock a car with this option.
Thx ahead.

I believe that is a special order item for a car, in other words you need to add that as an option, but I believe its only for the GS 450h and GS460 in terms of brand new.

I googled it but the only thing that came up was the visors. I feel pretty dumb now.
Is this something that can be added after the fact.

changing springs will not matter, however if you change struts/shocks then you no long have that function.
