Cheap Ls400 Sidelight?

crj · June 7, 2005

Hi all - I've only just found this site, and hope it'll be useful!

I have owned a series 3 LS400 for three or four years, now, and generally been delighted with it.

Unfortunately, last night, some idiot reversed into me in a pub car park. Fortunately, the only damage was to the sidelight, but my local Lexus dealership says a replacement is £71.30 (inc VAT).

Do any of you know a way to obtain one (new or secondhand) more cheaply?

Where's that from?

Unfortunately, £49+VAT is £57.57, which isn't so far off the £71.30 from my local Lexus dealer, once postage and packing from anywhere else has been considered. I was really looking for a pattern part, or salvage, or similar. Certainly, I've got a reasonable relationship with my dealer and it's not worth going somewhere else for so small a saving. /-8
