  1. Hi all, im wanting to change my standard head unit to something more up to date. however im aware i need the facia panels and ISO lead, but ive looked on ebay and theres 2 ISO leads. Amplifier bypass and Non Amp. which one do i need? note: My lexus is an x reg 2001.
  2. They're generally very hard rubber so not much grip but will last for years. As the others have said, your tyres are the only thing holding you on the road. Don't skimp on them. ok thanks mate, whats your view on the federals?
  3. Right, ive spotted these federals on ebay they look really good considering there a budget tyre. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/215-45-17-FEDERAL-SS...=item2ea8c84195 any thoughts??
  4. ive spotted NANKANG tyres on ebay what do people think to these ??? good quality etc?? the picture looks reasonable kind of look like Avons?
  5. hi mate, yeah i thought that aswell but i went on the actuall intrax website and they are a foreign company swedish i believe? but they do all the Formula 1 suspension apparently? so im guessing they will be pritty good but we shall see lol
  6. i purchased them off ebay they are Intrax with the hydrogen technology they retail for £970 and i got them brand new off ebay for £265 including postage.
  7. Hi all, just purchased some suspension and there upgraded coilovers, they state that they are for lexus is200/300 models. However it says lexus is200 SXE-10? Which seems to be the altezza model i believe? Will the kit still fit my lexus is200 x reg? Im presuming it will but just checking as you guys are the experts? thanks for your help guys.
  8. Hi all, right the crunch has come, i purchased a beautifull set of 17's for my lexus. However they skint me of 600 quid! brand new of corse. i now need tyres and planned on getting a really nice costly set but the rims have now just been laying around in the garage as i havnt got like 400 quid to splash out on tyres. i didnt really want to get cheap tyres but im not racing around and just want to get the rims on! so, whats the best quality budget tyre i can buy? any reviews on budget tyres or how have people got on with cheaper tyres?
  9. nice choice mate, if u ever sell the seats and spoiler let me know asap ;)
  10. Hi all, i understand how to take the headlights apart but what do i use to glue the rings in? and also where abouts do i glue the rings in. ive looked at a previous thread from lindblom but can seem to find a good thread that specificly tells you what and how to use the glue etc...? and also what sealant do you use to reseal the lights once completed?
  11. hi all, as above really. ??? whats gunna give my lexus that show shine and restore the sparkle? is there also a wax that has a protector in it for rust and things?
  12. I no this may be slightly off topic but how do you get the angel rings in your headlights? is there a step by step anywhere?
  13. Hi all, As im in the process of changing my alloys ive been thinking what colour to change the calipers then i came across the TRD caliper covers, has anybody purchased these or do they have them on their lexus? If so do they fit ok and have you got any pics?
  14. Im 19 and pay £890 quid with direct line - fully comp with break down cover, windscreen cover, ive also had a (crash/write off) on my previous vehicle which was a focus. There doing a deal at the minuite and its really cheap probably best getting a quote with them.
  15. As above, sounds like battery to me! if the car runs and sounds fine when its turning over then i seriously doubt its anything mechanical to worry about. if its not the battery im hazarding a guess that theres a chance it could be starter motor or alternator?
  16. Hi all, purchased myself a nice set of new 17's but they need tyres!! whats the Nicest and best SIZE tyre to go for to give the alloys a nice look?? some people have said (225 40 17) some say (215 45 17) some say (225 40 17) also please let me know if anyone is selling tyres of this size? preferably looking for: (yokohama parada spec 2, kuhmos, Avons, bridgestone, dunlops) thanks
  17. just looked at the thread mate, all seems a little confusing without pics but it doesnt seem like that much work to be done. the only thing that bothers me is conecting the electric cable to the positive battery terminal, what sort of wire should i use to do it? the earth seems pritty easy to do and a bit of soldering here and there seems ok aswell. but like said what sort of wire shall i use to run through to the battery (remeber the wire would need a seperate built inline fuse.)
  18. hi mate i can only visually see one wire that is black , its then conected to a yellow wire wich is phisically attatched to the seat, im presuming that this wire is the air bag. what wiring would need to be done then? also estimate a cost for it? lol
  19. Hi all, im in need of some quick advice, Im looking at some electric seats for my is200. however mine are standard non electric seats will the electric seats fit straight in ? as i can only see the airbag loom coming from the carpet, is there another wire somewhere or what? thanks,
  20. The kit im talking about is the one this guy has got but he is selling his car not breaking unfortunatly lol http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1301506.htm
  21. Hi all, been looking around for a while now, i want the altezza front Bumper with the different fog lights, also want the side skirts and rear valance, but not really found any at all? any ideas on other body kits or places where i can get them for a reasonable cost?
  22. Hi all, i purchased some alloys yesterday brand new, they said they will fit Lexus is200 but just thought i would check, just incase i need any special things, spacers etc?? alloys come with the correct spriggot rings and brand new studs.
