congrats and welcome to clublexus. you must have a manual that came with teh car, probably easiest to go with that. shouldn't be hard to figure out how to pair with your phone. for nav, just press DEST and go from there, easy enough

i knw that i have to override it but i want to be able to do it without voiding the warranty. i knw that there is a way to override but you have to cut the wires on the back of the unit. i am looking for a way to do it without cutting any wires. i understand that there is a system with a switch but it only stays on for 30-45 secs. i do not want that though. and thanks again for the help. is the price i paid too much.

McGrath is good to deal with. My 450h came from there.

Welcome, check in with the Chicago section.

Was the car a CPO, if so you could have extended the CPO warranty, but yeah you should def. try to get some rims and the price you paid seems reasonable, maybe you could have got lower but its not a bad price.
