I have a 2020 rx 350 and need to replace the navigation disk. How do u do this? The dealer’s cost is ridiculous and this seems simple. Any ides/suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm assuming you meant the SD card.
You can't just change it and upgrade the maps, a dealer has to do it AFAIK.

A 2020 Lexus RX with navigation receives map updates primarily through an automatic cloud-based system called Dynamic Navigation, which requires a subscription to stay current.
  • How it works: The navigation system uses Lexus's Dynamic Navigation service, which automatically downloads updates when the vehicle has an internet connection.
  • Subscription: This feature is free for the first three years and then requires a paid subscription for continued updates.
  • How to renew: You can renew your subscription through the Lexus app or by visiting the Lexus parts website.
  • Installation: Once renewed, the updates are automatically downloaded to your vehicle.

DYNAMIC NAV RENEWAL

Part Number: LEXU00CY1721
Supersession(s): LEXU0-0CY17-21; LEXU00CY1719Dynamic Navigation is a cloud base service that offers:
  • Updated Points of Interest
  • Improved routing
  • Latest maps from the cloud
The Lexus app is required to complete this update. If you have not used the Lexus app before it is required to install, create an account, select Dynamic Navigation Renewal and follow the instructions on the app to ensure your vehicle is ready to be updated before purchasing this product. This will require you to go to your vehicle and should take approximately 5 minutes to check eligibility.

Once you have ordered a Dynamic Navigation Renewal, your selected dealer will ship the part to the address specified. To complete the install you will need to return to the Lexus app and follow the instructions to complete installation. This will require you to go to your vehicle and should take approximately 45 minutes to complete the update.

Performing the update will enable Dynamic Navigation service for 2 additional years from the date of install. Once a purchase is made, this part is non-refundable and non-returnable.

Or you could just use your phone. It probably works better anyway.
