I can answer the first question - Pioneer.

The only Lexus model which hasn't used Pioneer for the base stereo system is the IS300, which uses Fujitsu. And there are numerous complaints from IS300 owners of the in-dash changer jamming on those Fujitsu head units.

As for the higher end stereo systems, Lexus first used Nakamichi and now Mark Levinson.

Funny how Fujitsu can make Eclipse, but they can't make a factory stereo for nuthin'.
My '88 Supra originally had a Fujitsu Ten stereo, and that was a hunk-o'-gar-bahhhzzge.
Those Japanese just can't make anything.
