can any one tell me exactly where these fuses are as ive had a quick look and cant see any fuses

thankx

hi ive fitted a new stereo in a 99 is200 now since that my display lights the ilumation round the dash clocks doesnt work now ive taken the stereo back out and they still dont work also ive checked the fuses in the engine bay and none have blown

any ideas

sorry for confusion but the iso connector type i had had the standard lexus conector block on one end and on the other ithad the iso femail end on so therefore just plug and play any iso headunit i do have rcas running to aftermarket amps that bit is fine its the iso block bit ive read that some are different like for s model and se / sport models

hi i had a non standard stereo fitted with aftermarket amps working fine with a iso connector but unfortanetly some bas***d smashed my window and robbed the headunit with the iso connector

so i need another one but what im unsure about is do i need the amplified connector or the standard iso because im not using the standard lexus amp thats fitted as standard

car is a 99 spec is200 se

also anyone know where i can pick up one of these

thanks

PIP, how did you solve the probleme, as I have made a replacement of the rear Disk and the spring that is in the brake, rub onto the srew that maintain the wheel, I don't know I did well explain myself. but i don't understand why not it is rubbing?????

hi not sure exactly how the problem was solved i just took the car to the main dealers where they fixed the problem just saying it was the springs and clips that needed replacing not sure anything else that was involved

yep standard suspension and back end does look really high

maybe it might be the same thing as thats all the dealers told me it was the spring & spring clips

just to help any one whos had same problem

now im to sure if noise was from rear or front but when your in reverse and touch the brakes you get a clank noise now i had a rac inspector look at it and said to take it to lexus now they have finally fixed the problem after having the car back 3 times

what the problem is, is a caliper spring clip that is either broke or worn therefore not relesing the brakes properly therefore getting the clank when it finally releases

hope this helps anyone else whos got the same problem or gets this problem

what do you think of my new wheels upgraded from standards to these 18"

also do you think i should lower the suspension

just a update ive been asking a few different garages about the noise / clank from the rear end and what one garage seamed to says and they said theyve had the problem before is that its a cheap nasty brake fitting kit thats been used and that the spring that goes on the calipers is worn there fore making the brakes hit harder and make the noise

now i wondered if anyone else might have herd about this before i go ahead and buy a different fitting kit

im thinking bigger wheels but i just cant make my mind up on design or whether to go for lowered suspension instead and engine mods

not sure what the front skirt is all the skirts were on the car when i bought it

yeh sorry about that pics came out abit bigger than expected

hi just to say hi and show everybody my new car

not sure if this will work so if not lnk to web site pics

thanks for that will try at weekend :D

hi can anyone help ive only had my is200 about 2 months and ive recognised a noise like a metal clank coming from i think the rear this happens when im reversing and touch the brake pedal i get the noise which is quite loud

also when going slow i seam to be getting a grating noise coming from the front wheels a bit like when the pads are grating against the discs when worn but these are new pads and disc fitted when i bought the car now ive had the lexus dealers check the second problem out and they say theres nothing wrong but its quite annoying noise when your driving

please does anyone know what these problems might be

thanks
