  1. That bracket was not used. As per PM I used a sheet of steel and made a template and effectively made a "blanking plate" that replaces it and cut a hole, welding some steel pipe, flared it a little and used it as a sleeve finished off with an exhaust clamp.
  2. Wow its been a while! I would say its "similar" as some modules block out the TPMS measuring block on the factory ECU if you plug in diagnostic software and it won't be able to read it. The only way to read any genuine TPMS faults is to return it to stock.
  3. Hi Catherine, If you have a damaged rear splitter as well I still have mine that I changed out to a different one if that helps.
  4. Had my screen done a few months back with Sheilas Wheels (Esure) I HAD to go through Autoglass as they are the recommended installer/repairer. Prior to booking an appointment, I requested a genuine screen with the following - the 2 Side windscreen trims (they will break no matter how careful you are) windscreen clips for the trims to clip in (again they are brittle and snap easily) and a brand new rain sensor pad. 3 weeks later , Autoglass called me to book in an appointment as Esure approved my request. As I work on cars in my spare time, I removed absolutley everything prior to the installer turning up. All he needed to do was to remove the old screen and fit the new one. He had on board the parts (genuine) and gave me the trims and clips but he didnt have the rain sensor pad in which I had a few spare genuine Lexus ones in my tool box so no drama. He agreed with a genuine windscreen as he said there were a few screens hes fitted in the past that was obviously cheap and they were "wavey" when you look at it from certain angles.
  5. Maybe spray some contact cleaner on the plug terminals of the loom?
  6. I think I have a drivers side one from my 2016 up in the loft somewhere slight scratches but not worn looking.
  7. Its in the boot, (right hand side) and underneath the panels.
  8. I use Osram Xenarc Night Breaker Laser - £108 on amazon for the pair and its suits me better than the OEM Osrams
  9. MOT for 2021 is not due until June now as last year Lexus Hayes serviced it and MOTd it at the same time at my request. Back in March and April last year when we were in true lockdown and when my warranty expires, there was no way to get the MOT done to be aligned with the warranty expiring unless I was front line and that's if Lexus was open back then. The warranty company on behalf of Lexus in a nutshell told me I didn't use it so I lose it.. (for 2021) maybe I should have MOTd it earlier than June but I would have thought they would have been more lenient.
  10. As my 2 year extended warranty expires today. One of the included MOT's will be lost as the earliest chance I could have MOT'd the car last year was June. If there wasn't a pandemic and lockdown obviously I would have MOT'd it today inline within the warranty expiry date. I called Lexus Warranty Services and they came to a "business decision" not to issue me the remainder MOT as my policy will have expired by June... Seriously thinking about fixing the car myself and sodding the extra 2 years I plan to get for it.
  11. If there was an exclusive discount for LOC members I'd get one now...
  12. For the extended warranty - Does the LOC discount (or can) apply?
