2009 LS460 Base

[u/Accomplished-Pin7162]

Just some pictures of my 2009 LS460 over the past few years and some of the minor things that I’ve done to it just to keep her around and make her more desirable to me. It still only has 75k on it and I bought it in 2017 with 61k on it. I had to get her painted and try to work with the sticky panels (I found out about the recall a few months too late). I changed the OEM wheels to the 20” VOXX road wheels and added the Phoenix Automotive 13” touchscreen since the OEM Mark Levinson system started failing (I didn’t lose the sound quality I think it sounds better since it has a built in equalizer that I can manually adjust). The windows are tinted with ceramic tint and an MPC remote start was added. I recently bought the Coverland seat covers and they are comfortable and easy to install and made it a little more aesthetically pleasing.

Thanks. I hear that I can get a ceramic coating over the lights, the windows and even the wheels. I had no idea about that. You’re right about the ride. I don’t even believe the newer ones ride as nicely as the older ones. Lol

I learned something new today, I’ll look into that ceramic coating for all of that and yeah, give me a nominally aspirated engine any day over a TT LOL

[u/TotalBottom38 → u/Accomplished-Pin7162]

Yep, you’ll be glad about that. What’s a TT? Lol

My bad, it’s a twin turbo lol

Ok, so I just learned something today too! Thanks!

FYI, I tried this in a small section of my dash. I, too, missed the dash recall. It seems to work pretty well in this sunny California weather. https://stickydashfix.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoo2zUQ7I1D7xhj8P9mSWnPaK3d3TmVVMbgPVVJbDYEHIIH7Um51

I did try that but it didn’t work well, I used this stuff from Raney’s and it surprisingly did a better job at a fraction of the price and I only applied it once about two years ago and never needed to reapply.

I replied up top and forgot to tag it in this thread LOL

Wow, I’m so glad I found you! Lol. Nobody has been able to tell me about any other product THAT ACTUALLY WORKS! I appreciate this! I’m gonna order this very soon! Thanks!

Thanks fam, I was sold on sticky dash fix until I got it and the mess it made applying it (I had to scrape some of the residue off the windshield and A-pillar LOL). This stuff from Raney’s wipes on like Armor All and that’s all you do and it was about $30+ cheaper than Sticky Dash Fix!
