Cool Optical Illusion

is it the same as the noise it makes when you leave your lights on with the engine off?

RYX have you had any problems with you HID'S? im very interested in doing this too is there any wire cutting or soldering involved or is it just a case of plugging in the new lamps and power inverters into the existing light connector? Brett

Thanks Rodders

I have a Question about these bulbs they come with an Orange O ring fitted and a black one loose in the box, I assume this is to keep the light box air tight? which is the correct one for the IS ?

Im going to try and take some pics for a scuff plate fitting guide tonight so while im at it i'll take a few for bulb fitting too :) Brett

Came this AM, many thanks for sorting out the group buy Gord. Gotta wait till tonight after work to fit them :( Brett

what was the problem with the seat? I have a switch on the car seat that makes a noise but does not seem to do anything car's not under warranty anymore though :(

I ordered an Adapter loom from the US for my IS but when it came the connector was the wrong type for my IS as mine is the old style connector, it should fit with the new IS and it comes with a line level converter, Ive heard mixed comments on if it will work or not if your interested you can PM me and I'll send you all the infomation i have Brett

May I ask what RAGE PAINT is Maz? is it that cool paint that changes colour like what they painted that AC Cobra with on dream machines?? I like the look of that but heard it's very expensive???

MAZ I uploaded them to the gallery but you could link to them from any website such as your own etc

hehe The Avatar was an accidental pic of the scuff plates with the shutter open too long but I kinda liked it :)

Here are the pics , Gotta say in the dark they are awesome :) in the day and in the dark

no problem just needs to be dark hehe

Now this sounds fantastic a Trip to Japan Hajimema****e Brett desu watashi mo nihon toyota kuruma desu hehe I knew Learning Japanese would come in handy one day :) (haha Guess I cannot introduce myself in Japanese without the auto censor kicking in hahah)

Its a very slight high pitched hum and I doubt you would hear it unless you put your head on the scuff plates . nothing to worry about really I just added it for completeness

Well Today I got my Scuff Plates from Lexus * £188.73 with Gold Discount :) Fitted them in around 30 mins and I have to say it's very easy to do but the TTE Instructions are not very good, Especially if you are not electrically minded. and the Connectors they supply are far too big for the wires they are connecting to :( . They do make a slight hum but thats normal as all EL lighting does that. Gotta say I cannot wait till it gets dark now to see them in their full Glory. If you wanted to change the colours it would be very easy as all you would need is an EL Light strip in what ever colour you want it in. * reference to gold discounting dealer removed

Which Wire's were these please Paul ? Im Off to get my scuff plates tomorrow mines a 99 IS200se :) cant wait!!! wooo :D

Hi all Will be picking up my Scuff plates tomorrow does anyone have a guide or some tips for fitting them? many thanks Brett

Im gonna try and come To the manchester one :)

Bt offer Satalite access now but it's far from cheap and another company offers a 2meg download from sat for 25 quid a month but you need to pay a 600 quid setup fee and still use a dial up modem to request sites etc (bt's is 2 way sat) there is also tele2.co.uk but i dont know much about them

sounds good Im in Leeds its self and we have matching cars lol

Hi Simon Im on NTL Broadband after having been on BT for 2 years NTL offer a 1meg connection for only £5.00 more than BT and there seems to be alot less downtime on NTL than BT I also have it connected to a Netgear 614 net router and a net gear wireless access point connected to that and it works perfectly well in any part of the house even outside in the garden or half way down the street, sending data from one computer to another is a little slow compared to a cable but the net and anything to do with it is great on my wireless notebook also as cable is ethernet its alot easier to set up with routers etc than the standard USB modem you get from BT, also use's alot less resources on your pc than the USB setup Brett

I dont have the lexus satnav but i do have an MD changer its a 3x multichanger and its sat in my glovebox, and its connected with RF it works fine but the sound quality thru RF is really lacking :(

What about knobs without balls can they be got off too?
