hello all, ive been wanting to replace my dash now for sometime due to it chipping and gashing and ive been searching for a thread to see if anyone had done it and havent had any luck finding one. i ordered one and when it gets here i plan on taking pictures to help anyone who might be wanting to do this later

I am interested in this too! I was gonna fix my dash but i think its easier just to replace it

Plus the dash itself is only around $500. But shipping is what kills yah.

i figured since no one has done it yet that i would do it to help anyone out later on

My coworker replaced his. He said it wasn't very much fun. Pillars come off. Steering wheel. center console. Gauge cluster. audio unit. Glove box. I also think he pulled the seats just to be safe from tearing them up

^Yeah, either fully recline and push them back...or just remove them altogether.

Cool I need some pictures so I can fix the rattle in the front between the dash and windshield and do some upholstery. I only see pictures of the dash out. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/bui...ml#post8224996

Dash removal is not as easy as it sounds. As a tech myself, i remind myself a couple things.

1. Routing of wire. If it's routed wrong, it can cause premature shorts/opens in the wiring harness.

2. Removing the dash will loosen clips, or even have clips forgot that will cause rattling.

3. Dash work is not fun.
