2004 GX470 - The Ugly Duckling

Lots of small fixes of broken cabin stuff. Some things are just not available for the GX but there's a lot of cheap Prado parts available on eBay. The stereo head unit was replaced by an aftermarket tesla clone. Android OS so old that most aps won't work on it. Torque, Google Go (Maps lite) will work. Gaia, Google Maps, Backcountry Navigator, etc., nope.

Bluetooth hands-free phone, radio, defrost, heat & AC function and that's what I'd get, along with a navigation system that's 15+ years out of date, by going back to OEM. So there's no point in replacing what I have now.

Any chance of updating the version of the OS?
 
I've spent just shy of $445 fixing various broken interior trim pieces. Handles, switches, and broken trim panels. Last piece was for the broken plastic sill on the rear swing out door.

Everything has been bought or traded for on eBay or on Facebook marketplace. Admittedly I've got a stockpile of stuff left over from the Tacoma and FJ that I van leverage for trades. Still, this is a completely opposite approach that I took with the Tacoma.
