  • For the few Lexus GX 470 fans out there... here's a small update video. I installed a dash overlay on my 2006 Lexus GX470. It came out nicely but not perfect by any means. I think a more realistic price point for this product would be $180-200... instead of $310. BUT, it does look better than the terrible cracked dash it had before. What do you think?
    Cracked dashes are a very common problem for the Lexus GX470... this is a simple fix nonetheless. Between this, the weathertech floor mats, and an upcoming dent removal... the gx is starting to shape up!
    Thank you for watching as always. If you'd like to see more GX470 content, just let me know. Happy to share, even if it's just for a few of us. =]

    Nice work on the dash coverlay! One mod that was an absolute game changer on my GX470 were my seat risers. I'm tall and on long road trips, my legs and thighs would become fatigued in the driver and passenger seats. The stock configuration sits a little flat and doesn't provide enough support. So I installed seat risers that I bought on Amazon and they work like a charm. Definitely worth the consideration to improve the comfort experience.

    For the time and cost, not bad at all. I would bet if you introduced your GX470 to the youtube world with this already installed, no one would have noticed a difference.

    Just bought a mint 2004 GX470 70k mile in onyx black. Going to get my dash replaced for $600+Labor at the Lexus dealer in jersey.

      No plans for that yet anyway. Just put some Nitto Ridge Grapplers on the Tundra. 👌 Video to come this week.

    I ordered a cover direct from them and it is poor quality as far as fitment , they offered a refund minus shipping ... $90 , cover was 255 . so i end up at a loss for a poorly fitting item . decided to fix it by adding to the areas where it was short , yes it wasn't that i needed to remove material , i had to add , then try and paint to match .
    I've purchased aftermarket ABS parts for motorcycles without these issues unless it was a racing part where detail is second .
    on their site it says " Made From Durable ABS Plastic And Vacuum Molded For Perfect Fit " , right .
    Seems like they are the only game in town for this type of product , profit > quality .

    Good fix over buying a whole new dash plus labor lol
    Plus it’s an old GX. Just patch things up for aesthetics

    I've done almost every mod with my 05 4runner except this overlay. 200$ is a lot for a plastic cover.

  • @christopherrice1375
    @christopherrice1375 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Looks much better than it did but not worth $325 in my opinion. But hey you never know till you try. A carpeted dash mat may have been the better option.

    Does it off gas? I almost ordered one a few weeks ago but noticed a warning that listed toxic two chemicals. Not sure if that’s just temporary or not.
