We have the same option package, far as the color of the 600HL it is a custom color created for SEMA project build that VIP Auto Salon did for Lexus in 2010. Here are to article Lexus Magazine did a feature called "A Meaner Lexus Hybrid" about the project.

Also is what is the difficulty level of installing the Power Rear DVD Multimedia center. A buddy of mines owns a dismantling center and another works at LKQ so my access is pretty much unlimited.
Also never got a response back on the rear executive package being installed any news or direction on that.

Thank you for that, that helped out a lot. Also is what is the difficulty level of installing the Power Rear DVD Multimedia center.

Thanks will definitely take that route. Just got a call today from the dealer, they just installed a new battery and alternator as well as replaced one of the door sensors something about the door saying it was open when it wasn't.

You're tire question is vague. So many factors will dictate the best tire for you. All season? Summer? All weather (not the same as all season)? Tire size? Staggered? Wheel size? Stock or aftermarket?
In general, you will NEVER go wrong with Michelin, especially when remaining within stock/OEM specs. They make fantastic tires. I am running Falken FK452 staggered tires on my '08. In the winter if the weather dictates, I run GT Radial Champiro Winterpro HP. I am not a fan of Goodyear and would go with just about any other mfg.

My Navigator is the same 5 years and 3 tickets, my town car 2 years 1 ticket my mom's Camaro and pop's Escalade no tickets 2 years each. Let's see what the Lexus gets. A lot of higher end cars don't get stopped and depends on driving habits and type of area you are in also. It's the gray area of the law, officer discretion besides note my user name ;-)
