installing ML after delivery is not economically viable, its probably going to cost 4-5x what it wouldve cost if you got it with the car. Cmusic said just upgrading the speakers does a lot for the stock system

Theres a few HID threads where people bought kits and put them in themselves

it's not just speakers, it's the amp, everything, that means you have to buy harness altogether, financially it doesn't make sense imho, might as well get the car with it already

for hid, you mean hid kits or what? if hid kits, there are tons of threads about it. if you talk about oem, probably philips stuff? i remember seeing philips bulbs before. but again, switching the oem hid is going to cost you a lot, just get a car with it to begin with. plus even if you can get it in, i highly doubt the autoleveling and AFS will work

I know but if you take the normal lexus is without mark levinson and you open the place in the center in the dashboard where normally the 14 speaker is from the m l, you can see that the wiring connection for this box already is in place, so I was wondering if it's possible just to buy a box and plug and play , someone dit try this already?

Joeke, what everyone else is trying to tell you is, YES, you can do it, but with the price of all the parts you'll have to buy, plus the labor to install all these components, it's not an economical choice. When all is said and done, you would have spent more time and money installing all this stuff afterwards compared to just buying a car with it already installed.
