  1. Nrk.no about the light Altaposten.no - my local newspaper FD.no - Another local newspaper Some people say it could have been a Russian rocket failing during launch. Think it's only Norwegian and Swedish news papers reporting about this
  2. It really isn't! At first when i saw it i tought it was being projected form somewhere but after 10 seconds or so i realized that it wasn't. Terrifying and beautiful at the same time. No expert know what it is. It can't be comet because it sits still to long Video here Quality isn't that great but it wil do for now
  3. A big moving light that lasted for about 1 minute or so! If you belive it's shopped take a Look at www.vg.no With google translate or something. VG is Norways biggest newspaper. It was about 15 times the diameter of the moon in size. It may look like it's beeing projected but seriously They saw it in half of my country!
  4. Okay thanks :) Hmmm okay the Torsen differential will work as an open differential if one wheel is airborne. I guess that's why my car was spinning on one wheel only (wicked slippery road)
  5. Hi guys made a quick guide on how to clean the head unit lens (IZZY asked nicely for info) :) It might remove error1. Guide can be found here along with instructions on how to replace bulbs in trc panel and a suggestion on where to install grom audio adapter: http://www.klementiner.com/2009/12/08/gett...-head-unit.html Edit: fixed post And guide is here as well: Part 1 – Getting the head unit out of your dash: First you can start by ejecting your cds. Then use some tape to avoid scratches when you start disassembling the dash. Use a screwdriver in the middle to bend up the ”place your celly here thingy”. This will make it a lot easier to get it off. Now get a second screwdriver and pop it off like this. *pop* There should be some screws here but somehow they where missing. (1) Insert your fingers here and give it a quick and hard pull towards you and it will come off. Now throw the center-console top in the backseat Now get a good grip under the Heated seat/trc panel. If you can’t do it with one hand try using both. Use tape to avoid scratches! The wires are short so its easy to get scratches when you are trying to unplug the panel. Now unplug the wires from the trc panel and throw it in the backseat. Unscrew the four bolts that holds the head unit in place. Theres 2 on the top an 2 on the bottom. Tape to avoid scratches when unplugging head unit!! (1) Unplug the air condition unit first, then unplug the (2)antenna (just pull it out) and finally unplug the the (3)stereo. Hold it as still as possible to avoid scratches! Part 2 – Cleaning the cd player lens: (1) Unscrew the two screws and open the cd player. Damn! No comment! -_-” 5 minutes later… This is what you see when you open the cd player. The lens is hidden nicely under a bunch of metal. Now its time to get back in the car along with your cd player. Plug the power cable into the cd player and wait until the lens comes out and then unplug the cd player. There it is! Now make it shine. Isopropyl and a cotton ear bud will do the trick. Please test to see if it reads cds properly before you put it back in the dash
  6. You are looking at a car with lights under the doors :o Try getting your pictures slightly brighter :)
  7. Yes it's the same car :) Only difference is the steering wheel is not on the wrong side and the engine is 1 liter bigger
  8. And the other one just have a standard diff? And what kind of LSD do the IS 200 have? Its snow on the roads here and one day when i was going to make i u turn i noticed that it felt like only one wheel was spinning (3000rpm) why? Sometimes when my back wheels start spinning(driving uphill) i hear this noise (not very loud) that reminds me of ABS brakes that only last for half a second. Is it because of the LSD?
  9. If a break light is out the parkbrake indicator will come on when you brake :)
  10. Done! Works brilliant now :D You can be fooled if you don't use your brain. At first it didn't find the lens but found out i had to plug in the power cable for 2-3 sec to get the lens out.
  11. http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...showtopic=46731 Here you go ;)
  12. No no no :) Your Cd player is not done for yet. Error 3 = fukd. Error 1 = reading error i believe. Dirty lens or something. When i get error 1 i just turn of the head unit count to five and turn it back on and i usually work again :) You can load and eject cds right? :) Hi Solhatt, well hmm im kind of suprised in a good way.. yes i get error 1, and yes i can load and eject discs... it basically loads and starts to read the disc and then after like 5 -10 seconds it will kick up thta error1 message.. so i think it does make sense that it is unable to read the disc due to lens dirty or whatever... any suggestions on what i should do? thanks Take out the head unit and clean the lens with alcohol :)
  13. Guess cleaning cd won't work :) Think i will fix my cd player this week. I guess Isopropyl will do the trick
  14. No no no :) Your Cd player is not done for yet. Error 3 = fukd. Error 1 = reading error i believe. Dirty lens or something. When i get error 1 i just turn of the head unit count to five and turn it back on and i usually work again :) You can load and eject cds right? :)
  15. Luckily it only takes 10 min with driving before the engine gets Warm enough to put out some heat :)
  16. You are talking about the brown connector? :) It dosen't fit. it's 1mm to deep to fit directly on the balast. it dosen't click on, but i guess if you trim away 1mm i would fit fine. I'm gonna refit the kit when i take my front bumper off (again). Fitted the kit only temporary. Gonnna place the ballast under the headlights, but think i still have to use the extension cable. Where are you planning on fitting them?
  17. Usually i start the car before i eat breakfast so after 20 min it should be okay to drive :D Or i can just park in the garage when it's not occupied. But still have to start my car before breakfast or else i will freeze my balls of. ( -15°C seat )
  18. That's what you get if you leave your car still for 4 hours
  19. Actually i ordered it in the evening 24 nov and recieved it 28th =D Even more impressing it only cost like £ 8 in shipping
  20. What the hell :D Got my Hid kit TODAY!!!!!!!!! =O Wicked sick delivery. 4 days UK - Norway! It takes longer to recieve items i order in Norway. 17,5 of 10 point to hids4u
  21. Hi when i was heading for work this morning i noticed that the left headlight had some condense on it and i tried wiping it off but it's on the inside of the headlight :( I mounted a new grille yesterday and i had to wash my car before i started changing the grille so guess that's when the water came in. What to do now? Guess i have to bake my headlight and take it apart, but what can i use to reseal it? And how long can i have condense inside the headlight before it gets damaged?
  22. Grille is fitted :D Looks really nice :) I used a screwdriver to push down the 3 pins that holds the grille. Only took me like 5 minutes to change the grille
  23. my ex lex had manual passenger seat and electric drivers seat It was a 2000 model. My current IS 200 which is a 2001 mod have both seats filled up with motors :D :D
  24. Xenon for foglights! :) Use the same as headlight. HB4
