I'm looking for a pair of roof bars for my 2005 Lexus GS300 SEL. If you have some to sell, please let me know.

there is a couple on ebay, 1 being brand new in box green Thanks for the lead donmar. If there is anyone out there in Lexus Land who can help me with the practical side of changing the mirror i would very much like to hear from you.

As a result of a coming together in the recent snow, I need to replace the complete driver’s side mirror assembly on my 1999 GS300SE. Is this an easy part to replace (hopefully with one from a breaker) and if so, how does one do it. Also, if anyone has a silver one for sale I would be interested to hear from them.

I'm looking for a drivers side headlamp washer cover for a Mk2 GS300 in silver. If you have one to offer I would be pleased to hear from you.

Ive had my 1999 Mk2 GS300 for the last 9 years during which time it has proved to be extreamly reliable and I have only had to replace consumables during this time. I am now thinking of changing it for an early (2005) Mk3 and have become a bit concerned about the recent threads detailing some expensive problems (such a ECU's, oxygen sensors etc.) with the early cars. Can anyone tell me of all the known problems with the early Mk3 cars and, if possible, when they were corrected so that I can try to get the most relyable model year. Regards, Peter

Thanks for the link Phil. It's just what I wanted. Peter
