I bet if you can get that middle console on eBay, should swap right in

I'd be willing to bet the black assembly comes right out once you remove the middle console.

Did you get it new or used? Looked like someone just ripped it off...

That's how the GS450h shifter looked when it first debut in 2013. Maybe that was Lexus' way of doing it for cars equipped with CVT. Seems like for 2015, they changed it to be covered like the GS350.

Hi forplatina. Just curious, is that top picture of the 2016 hybrid gear changer?
Hope you can get it changed to how you want,

Ty vinnier6. It seems they changed to the stitched leather covering the bottom of the shift lever in 2014+ models.

Did you ever swap it out? I personally dislike the leather bag/boot. I prefer the traditional. Does anyone know if it can be switched out?
