I have been searching for several years for a GX470 that;
A. Was in my price range
B. Condition that I wanted
C. Color combo I liked
My ride is an 04 with Nav and 179K out of Florida. I have been on this site for a couple months now reading everything that I can find. I have LED low beams, dome lights, and running board lights on the way. Next will be rot work on the stereo.

That’s a clean 04 model.

Ive got a 2005 GX470 in the gold color. It was at 143k... now at 192k miles. I drive 60k miles a year. Long work commute.

First thing I added was the a blue tooth streaming box and leds everywhere(except the blinkers).

The 05 had Bluetooth for talking.. but it was hard to hear.

So get the yatour BT media device off amazon. You unplug the cd changer and plug in the Yatour box(about 3” by 3” & 1/2” thick). You can use the blue tooth, aux input, and usb if you want. I just use the media streaming and Bluetooth mic that I ran up to the sunglass holder(where the factory Bluetooth/Nav mic is located).

The quality if the sound from pandora, podcasts, and other apps is amazingly clean and crisp. The Bluetooth talking is way better because the voice you hear is now amplified and doesn’t reproduce it’s own sound.

Can’t beat it for $75...
