They are at www.metraonline.com.
I thought so. Here is a photo of mine without the trim that goes around the head unit. I also asked the audio shop to MAKE SURE the AC controls and the Dash Kit are perfectly aligned. I think they did a good job. You can't tell from the photo, but the color isn't too far off from the AC Controls.

I don't care who I buy my stuff from - but if you are cheaper then show me what you have and I would be more than happy to deal with you.

Don't however give me crap for buying something from a different company - not cool.

Oh sorry, I just got a little excited as I heard AutoToys charges too much for shipping. Just a hobbyist at home here trying to help...

I think they actually make the ABS, so you really should get it straight from the manufacturer.

Jonny,

Doublewhoosh (Todd)'s being a bit modest in his reply... he runs TM Engineering and they are one of our ClubLexus sponsors. They do have both great service and prices - recommend you check them out.

No prob guys,

I was just a little confused. I will check out the site and put in an order.

And yes, their shipping is absolutely ridiculous. $13 to ship a piece of plastic!!

Brief testimonial on DoubleWhoosh's delivery. I posted a weekend order through his online site and he had no idea I was a CL regular. Like everyone, I was anxious to get the kit in hand to jump on the install. We got tangled up on an exchange of emails as he tried to explain that there would be additional cost for next-day deliver. The last exchange was Monday, so I expected to get a package on Wednesday or Thursday. Showed up on Tuesday and no additional charge. Even got a followup note a few days later checking to make sure I was satisfied. Keep in mind we're talking about a $20 item. I didn't get that kind of service when I bought my Gs400, or even after I bought a second car from the same dealership.

Darius,

It already has a headunit so right now I am just sticking with the one that is in there. I will post some pics when I am all finished with it.

anyone know what the difference is between this kit:

and the one offered by Autotoys/Tmengineering? Does anyone have the dash kit above?

Thanks.

Default Again, anything for SC?

Hi,

So far it looks like GS owners have an abundance of kits available. But us SC owners are out in the cold.

Someone was going to mod one for an SC. Any word on that?

I want to install an AVIC-N1/2. I want to put it in low so the screen does not interfere with the ventilation controls.
