Hey, just got a 94 GS on friday. Turns out the old owner had a system in it but when he traded it in, he just thew in a different headunit in but never hooked it up. It's mounted and everything which leads me to believe he would have connected it if he could have. Maybe it needs a new harness or somthing, but anyways, I got the piece around the shifter out of place and the ash tray/ lighter pocket out, and also undid the 3 bolts so now the center has more lee way but is still stuck unless Im not pulling hard enough or there bolts I dont see.. But now what I dont know is if the shifter is a problem that I dont see. I wasnt able to get the top part off of it, I dont know if you need to completely remove that piece around the shifter or just get it loose enough just to get the ash tray out.

i dont know for sure, but any lexus parts dept will have a schematic showing the dash parts, and attatchments...and that should give you an idea of whats going wrong, without breaking anything!

Thanks, already got it. Just wasn't pulling hard enough. The piece above the climate control (where the vents are) that is. I was just scared about breaking something.

i understand...believe me..
