Enjoy the new car! People tend to post when unhappy but not when happy If it's anything like mine you'll love it

Hi Jon, This is when I connect using the usb port in the central storage box. Prior to the OS upgrade I could select my music / podcasts from the 7" touch screen by selecting audio / usb. regards, David Cheers David, Ah ok I don't have the UBS port in my 2006 - I have the Full Ipod Integration kit (e.g. a IPOD connector lead in the glove box) I don't know how the USB port works - but with my kit it acts as a CD Disk changer and displays each playlist as a CD e.g. 20 playlists I have 20 CD's in my changer Does the USB connection work the same? I think I'll wait for a mate to update their phone and test it out first.

I was in the same boat as you - I had my Is200 for 5 years and loved it. I brought my 220d SE-L MM 2 months ago and love it to bits, I to had reservations after all the negative comments here, but on the up side my expectations were real. So I took it out for a test drive and loved it! Takes a few days to get used to the gearing, but once you have it pulls like a dream (I don't really bother with 6th day to day and to be honest you don't need it) I brought from an independent its 2006 and done 65k but I made sure it had a full Lexus History and before parting with my cash I called a dealer to ensure all the recall work had been done. The fuel consumption is not fantastic (way better than my IS200 and the Tax bill is less) - however I knew this beforehand and if MPG was my aim I would have brought a boring Audi or BMW As I said I love it to bits and don't regret my decision Cheers Jon.

Hi, Sorry can't answer your question, but am interested to know are you talking about via the Lexus Ipod integration kit? I was going to update my iphone tonight but I may wait now. cheers Jon

The short answer is no. Also from the other thread My thoughts exactly. Thats a lot of dosh to shed out again if it goes pop later (which they are prone to do). I was told at the time the replacement was a revised mechanisum, a year and a half on no problems (touch wood) For me the OEM look was more important, and in my opinion replacement facias then available spoiled to look of the dash

I wanted to keep the OEM look see: - http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...st&p=406197 still going stong and I only ever use CDR's

I have been using this for a few years now. http://freepdf-xp.en.softonic.com/ Effectively converts anything you can print to .pdf

I have mintex discs and pads - not noticed any difference from the standard ones they replaced (aside of the price! good olde ebay) :D Got mine from this guy. http://search.stores.ebay.co.uk/THE-MOTORI...1735786QQsofpZ0

They look great Dan! Glad they went to a good home/project.

Any of the Wii owners got this game? I cannot for the life of me figure out how to create another character, which surely must be possible.... I have even RTFM but no joy Looking to multiplayer after the pub, it's possible with sharing the initial player, but me being the only lefty causes problems. arrggghhhh! :tsktsk: Looks like Wii Sports Golf or wait for Tiger 2008

I had mine done at Pristine in MK a few weeks ago, am very please with the results!

Took me and a mate two hours, and was a pig getting behind the wheel arch liners but we did it leaving the wheels on. Just make sure you have a decent socket set.

Part number on other thread! http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...st&p=438725

Invoice was from Lexus Oxford and states 1 x IS200 RR SPLR L01600-00049-1C0 price was £85 + vat dated 08/2004 I am presuming this must be the spoiler... 1C0 would indicate the colour Cheers Jon.

hmm strange..unless urs is not done anymore? Maybe, I will dig out the invoice in the morning and see if it has a part number...

no brake light in mine

Mine is OEM and a later fit. Looks like a nut/bolt either end in boot + I guess glue

It was on the car when I brought it, but I think one of the previous owners had it fitted as with the paperwork was a receipt for 1 x rear spoiler + paint from Lexus Oxford.

Looking good, sweet ride!

Great pics and car!

Thanks for the comments guys... and cheers Chris for sorting and the quicky delivery of the new headlights Dead pleased with the headlights, they change the look of the front end (meaner)... Well worth the money, (going to change the main beam bulbs back as they just look to blue and ruin the dark effect) Not sure about the darker rears, was thinking about the front fogs until I saw the price yesterday Downside of getting the rims redone is parking so far out from the kerb now, good job we got fold in mirrors! Sure is, spells my name backwards - and was a nickname in my youth.... Other two are the model of an Audi I had when I brought it :winky: Cheers Jon

Yours is looking good! I looked at two blue ones before getting mine... I still got a K&N to fit, new mintex discs and pads, and waiting for new Spark plugs to arrive from the US ebay guy.

Busy week - New Lights (Dark OEMS) fitted... ....Also Painted calipers and had alloys re-furbed Diamond cut - picture does not do justice and just passed its second MOT since buying, guy in the testing station said "these cars are great! Never had one fail!"

Seem to be OK mate, if they're E-Approved :) Jamie I guess time will tell if I get pulled... (I also still need to go out in the dark and see if they are any good) Like yourself I have just fitted the OEM darker Hlights and am really chuffed, they look great! Cheers Jon

This is the set I brought Ebay Link The main beam bulbs also reflect Blue during daylight (as the bulb is blue) presume this may be a problem.... Did pass MOT today with them fitted Image on lex
