Doesn't work on my 2008 RX350. I don't hear anything when I click on the upper left or lower left in the "Volume Menu" and never get to the Service Menu.

Of course it will not work on 2008 RX350! This method will not work on Lexus Nav version 6.1 in 2007 and 2008 lexus models. I thought this topic has been bitten to death .
CLick here for previous discussion:
Nav6.1 Override?

It will work only on 07 RX350 if it was manufactured before Aug 2006 because they have ver 5.1 NAV.
Any RX350 after that month have the new version of navigation and the override will not work. I made a hybrid DVD for the override and it works like a charm , have access to the GPS override menu even while driving.

^ that explains

You are correct, sama. The creation of hybrid nav dvd, an alternative method to overide nav locked out while moving, has been well discussed in the Lexus IS forum. It has been confirmed to work flawlessly, as well. The important footnote is: one needs to have both the lexus nav dvd ver 5.1 and 6.1 to do this. Given that you already have one of the two versions, you will buy the other version from Lexus. Cost is around $200.

Looks like it is working sort of

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=309318

http://beta.lexus-parts.com/parts_de...id=90133&all=Y $260 - Promo Code NAV07

There is a $40 rebate from Sewell if we buy the 7.1 DVD and return the 6.1 DVD ,For purchases between August 1, 2007 to January 1, 2008

Bottomline price is $220 for those who want it
