Ls400 Cd Changer Bracket

[LS Jasper]

Realised today after three years that my CD changer is not held in place by anything. There should be a bracket. It's a 1995 Mk3. Anyone able to confirm what should be there and where I could get it?

Cheers

2 weeks ago I would have given you one, it has now gone to the crushers with the CD changer still in it!

Is the changer loose in the dash?

[cruisermark]

if you google "lexus ls400 cd changer" and look at the images you will see that it has 2 brackets attached to the top which are secured using screws

hope this helps

Not attached to the dash at all. Funnily didn't affect how it worked, even when pushing the cartridge in I couldn't tell. It was just an annoying vibration noise which I tracked down to that area and when I finally got round to taking out the glove box etc I could tell. Had a look at the google search and can see that those brackets are absent! Shame, Steve, that I took so long to get round to looking into this!

Practical solution maybe: just pack it with bluetack or similar to hold it and to absorb any vibration !

Then if you do manage to get some brackets make the proper repair.

That's the plan. Been like it for three years! You all probably think I need to go to spec savers cause I also realised recently that both plastic front sections of the inner wheel arch are missing!

My mate bought an indentical white 1995 gold badged LS400 from the bay on Saturday. He was the only bidder cause it hadnt been listed under 'cars' so I don't think anyone saw it.

Anyway I drove him to get it and noticed that mine ismissing the wheel arch inners.

BTW very interesting to drive an identical model after 19 years and compare....

I think I may have the wheel arch liners in the shed :) Only reason was I saw a topic somewhere when they had used modified front liners to fit the rear arches and I thought mmm might do that...one day!

If you do come across them and want to clear some space.....
