Id love one as they add a little class but still at that price, for what they are, can't warrant it really.
Bobski
Jul 1 2005, 11:45 PM
WOW......
I wonder if it would be cheaper if ordered from the US?

How can lexus justify charging over 200 quid for a bit of leather, foam and plastic?
Someone make a copy for 100 or less and i'll be intrested!
Lexus Jim
Jul 5 2005, 12:34 PM
Anything happening with this Mr Singh? Am very intrested as wanted one for so long but getting funds will be tight
Mr Singh
Jul 5 2005, 02:03 PM
There available, if u want one then i'll put your name in the original post as a 'yes'
Same goes for any others...
More of you that buy cheaper it becomes!
If we buy more than 10 they'll be £170!
Lexus Jim
Jul 5 2005, 03:08 PM
If we get them for £170 then definately yes. come on peeps.
if less than 5 then defo no
Mr Singh
Jul 5 2005, 03:24 PM
I'm thinking the same
Bobski
Jul 5 2005, 11:30 PM
Is 170 All in inc P&P/TAX/Duty?
Lexus Jim
Jul 6 2005, 05:26 AM
it sez at the top postage is £5 extra, so £175 if ten buy one. sounds like a bargain to me
Mr Singh
Jul 6 2005, 08:51 AM
Yep as Jim says.
But getting 10 ppl interested seems highly unlikely to me
Bobski
Jul 6 2005, 07:48 PM
Well im more interested now.......if its any help

Only if we get 10 ppl though.
ProLex-UK
Jul 6 2005, 08:04 PM
Am,
if they hinge (launch control is in the cubby hole) I'd join in
Adie
Jul 6 2005, 08:38 PM
I'm sure they do hinge. But you lose something like half the space of the compartment because the arm rest is fitted inside it and not onto the top.
Mr Singh
Jul 6 2005, 11:39 PM
Yep u loose 1 of the cubby hole/cup holders..
It is on a hinge..
If we have 5, which kinda looks pretty decent possibilty now, then its £220 del..
If when i get them in, they cost less, i will pass discount on, only fair!
Lexus Jim
Jul 7 2005, 06:04 AM
you loose half the space of the main cubby hole but gain a fantastic and comfy arm rest instead. (don't know what you mean about cup holders, they are infront of it - see pic)

If these are the lexus OEM ones then they definately hinge.
Come on peeps, £170 for these is a bargain seeing as there over £300 from the dealer
ok put me down aswell for one, but thats if we can get 10 buyers at £175 all in..
(think if we can get names down of definate yes and count up how many we got, also it may trigger other members to join the GB if we got names up..)

Just realised... You have Ivory interior, the armrests will be black leather only..
But i will double check if we can get Ivory..

Hi Mr Singh
I would buy a black armrest at £175, inc pp. So if you make 10 with me, Iam in!
Off to oz for 3 weeks but I will check the forum

if there is an ivory coloured one on the go I should be able to buy one as I have sweet talked the wife, not sure if a black one will suit, know what I mean
aido
Jul 8 2005, 04:13 PM
I'll add myself to the yes boys at £170 if we can get ten people - not many to go now

Thanks Am

Jul 21 2005, 09:23 PM
I'd have one but they have stiching rather than piped leather (mine's an 02 with the nice piped leather edging) - hope you know wot I mean!

Hi
Whats the latest on this "Group Buy" has it been dropped?

Mr Singh
Aug 8 2005, 09:14 AM
So far were at the £215 stage.... if were all happy to go with that can you all let me know.
Niraj
Aug 8 2005, 09:59 AM
i think i'm interested, if all info is correct and adding me to the list makes it £175.
Any pics of the Ivory one... will it match my interior?
I've got the Alcantara interior and the '01 manual model, will it fit my console? If so, then yes... i'm interested... please give me info asap, so i dont buy the other things i was going to spend the money on.
Mr Singh
Aug 8 2005, 10:54 AM
Niraj,
I will find out if there is extra charge for Ivory, as the GB is for black leather only..
I'll look for a pic, but same as one shown in the first post all leather..

Oh dear

extra charge ??
Do you know if Jim has said if he wants the black or ivory leather too? If i recall we have the same interior/model/year vehicle.
I would obviously want the armrest to be the same colour as the rest of the leather. As for any other information, all would be a great help

Cheers,
Niraj.

Aug 8 2005, 12:46 PM
I'll try get answer later on this week mate..
Bobski
Aug 8 2005, 01:00 PM
Oh...didnt realise was black ONLY

I have light interior................
I dont think the black would go........
Fingers crossed on the answer.

Hi
I checked out the price of a center arm rest, from Lexus Cardiff parts dept
£360 plus VAT= £423.00
at £215 it still seems ok, allthough £170 is better

[snapback]271305[/snapback]
£215 is a bargain, i dont doubt it for one second... but its about £50 more than i have in my budget, to be spending just at the moment... i'm on a really tight margin this month. If it means having to skip lunch for the next month... i may have to give it a miss... (i love food more than i need a place to put my arm, lol)
Stopher
Aug 11 2005, 02:33 PM
Sign me up! If £170 will be the price....
How many exactly are we now that are interessted?
Mr Singh
Aug 11 2005, 04:10 PM
Stopher, you do realise by the time it reach's you in norway it will be about £40 more in shipping?
Were still long way off 10 people, also i've not heard back with regards to whether or not Ivory is available...
Lexus Jim
Aug 12 2005, 09:11 AM
I still want a black one If we get 10 people
Mr Singh
Aug 12 2005, 11:37 AM
No probs.
Stopher
Aug 12 2005, 02:31 PM
"Stopher, you do realise by the time it reach's you in norway it will be about £40 more in shipping?"
Back in Norway is sets me back about £500, so if shipping is £40, is no prob.

Still saving quite a bit
Purvesh
Aug 14 2005, 08:25 PM
Am... this will make you smile!!
Put me down for 2! (if they'll be £170 each). - black ones
Do they fit in place of the current flap box?
Lexus first said to get the armest that you've shown, you need to change the whole centre console..
Mr Singh
Aug 14 2005, 09:36 PM
Yes thats right.
Chris S might be able to shine some light on center consoles and armrest fitments...
Afaik they fit all models as they have the cubby box on all the center consoles...
adding ur names
Purvesh
Aug 14 2005, 10:23 PM
Cool.. we got 10 now
How long before we give the green flag?
Cheers..
Lexus Jim
Aug 15 2005, 05:37 AM
looks like 10 to me. This is what I've wanted most on my IS for ages but unable to justify the cost from the dealer
Mr Singh
Aug 15 2005, 10:12 AM
Yep we have 10.
Speaking to the supplier about the Ivory ones...
I'll reply later with payment methods etc..
