I just got the part today installed on my 2017 and it works so far. Hope this helps everyone who is looking for OEM in the earlier years. I'll upload more photos if needed

here are some more images. Not sure why it didn't work for the first person but I have successfully done it. I do have a fully loaded version of the rx though so maybe I had something they didnt. It is a really slow charger but I got it for passengers anyway

So so I called the dealer and told them about my issue and he said the bring it back and they’d give me my money back. Which is good because almost always they never give all your money back especially on electrical parts, so I got lucky.

I’m not sure if I got a dud or there is more to the install than just plug and play. Lexus parts guy and myself seemed to think there might be more to it than just plug and play, so we got me my money back.

I’m probably just going to install the Scosche unit I posted a few posts above as it I’ll be able to get a clean OEM like install and not have any wires be seen.


Today I installed the OEM part on a 2017 rx350 with the luxery package and it seems to be working great so far

My 2016 came with the wireless charger. Used it few times at the beginning.

When it works it barely provides enough charge to maintain the phones change level. Over a 1 hour drive the phone gets only couple of % of charge.

To me it's a completely useless feature. On the new model RX they are much much better. I actually use it there regularly.
