you could be right

Hi I have the stock Sat Nav in my IS and also recently had an ICE install, the problems i encountered (or should i say the installers) where that i had to keep my stock stereo because it was integrated with the Nav, and depending on what type of stock stereo unit it was i had a 1 in 3 chance of them getting a decent high level output that they could use to then wire into and amp etc etc. luck was on my side though and they managed to find an output, They also integrated the Dension hard disk Mp3 unit via an FM modulator, so ends well, hope this helps

Yeh i saw the workshop articale, and was trying the hairdryer routine, wasnt having any joy, although i must admit patience isnt my greatest virtue, perhaps now ill wait a bit longer with the hairdryer, As for salvagable, at the moment the one that is brown bread is back on the lex and will do until i get another one.. thin i may get the smoked whilst im there.. but at least i can experiment and see what the paint finish on them would look like...before i do the front..

Well people i thought i might have a go at installing the Demon Eyes kit, after reading the install instructions and checking out http://hazy.my-is300.com/dde.php i thought 'well looks straight forward' and i was particulary interested in painting up the 'chrome' part of the headlight to match the car just like Hazy had done... so first i thought i would experiment with the rear light clusters as if anything goes wrong then i assume they will be cheaper to replace.. SO i remove the unit..then set about taking the unit apart and according to both guides you sipmply stick the unit in the oven on 200degC for 15-20 mins and the glue will be soft enough to pull apart.. PAH after 4 mins i though i would check, and THIS is the result. So anyone got and ideas as too a safer way of seperating the outer clear plastic lens from the rest of the light housing..

There you go

did you use 2 'O' 2, o not zero.

Went to Toyota parts dept (twickenham) today, get me some 8M6....letf without it... they havent got any nor have they ever had any... Never fear Halfords to the rescue...walked out with 1 litre and a spray can of the stuff... :D

Width wise it fits perfectly, depth wise i wil need to take an inch out from both sides,, not a bid deal really, nothing a bit of strong epoxy glue cant handle

so guys.. talking od paints and there part numbers.. riddle me this.. if a bodyshop was to spray up my body kit,, what code do i give them for Royal Sapphire Blue. the one listed Here as 8m6, or something else..

ta Zee,

will do comrades....wil do

got it now thanks

looked in the Gold Workshop (i assume that where you meant) but nothing on fitting headlights.

well i read that sticking it in an oven at 200 c for 15mins will soften the glue..

ill get onto them then,, ta

no prblemo,, i may even do my own insatll pictures.. only thing that is worrying me is taking the headlight apart and sealing back togehter.

cool ave ya got there number my friend

yep i got them through Lextasy, and the think didnt come with instrusctions, HOWEVER, take a look at these links http://www.umnitza.com/ddefaq.htm http://hazy.my-is300.com/

looks good,, think ill have to get mine done then.. could you give me the contact details of the place you got yours done. i may have to go there if i dont have any luck this end of the country.. will most bodyshop garages do the work, but then saying that id rather take the lex to someone who has done it before.

Fisgits my man....i thank you.. i wasnt looking forward to taking the bumper off. when you did yours, did you have any probs concerning the headlight motor adjustment.

Cant see em my friend,, perhaps stick em inthe gallery and give me the link..

Well this weekend i shall attempt to fit the demon eyes, looking at some instruction i will need to remove the front bumper or can i simply remove the headlights without taking the bumper off. has anyone any advice on removing this..

I'll see what i can do, try n get hold of a digi cam, someone has borrowed the one here at me work place.. Thanks man

Finally the goods are in my hands, only had to pay £250 extra for import, customs and VAT etc. now just gota get the kit sprayed and we is looking gooooodd

Well ive spoken to R-Tec again and the highest offsets they do for the IS200 is an ET38, they did say that this i snot a problem and that they have fitted these before to Lexus's (lexi lol) with no problems. so me thinks i may have to go with the arch rolling, Imi any chance of a photo of your rear arch profile so i can see the results, Can anyone recommend a place to get the arches done in the London region..
