Bump bump!!

Anyone?

My car never reads the correct temperature [external temp reading] so i ordered up a sensor. Anyone fit one before? I didnt even look yet but it'd be nice to see if there's an easy way around it first Cheers Ray

The bulbs i wouldnt find a problem , it's cheap ballast that give trouble

Cheers for that , will have a better look at it when i collect the wheels!

Yep i know the inner is different , it's the outer i'm looking to change for the later model as it has clear indicators Part numbers are the same except the model code , my mate works in lexus parts and is going to check it out on monday. Only problem i can see is the red part being a different design to the earlier model That's if the dimentions are the same Will let you know how i get on cheers

Is it possible to change the earlier outer tail lamps on a 2001 model for the 2004 model [with the clear indicators]? They look similar anyway

Does anyone know the part number for the centre caps of the factory 18" wheels as below? Have a set organised to go on my 2001 model but there are no centre caps with them. Would appreciate it if someone could pop off there centre cap and post up the part number! Cheers Ray

Falken ZE912 is what i'll most likely go with. Just have to decide if i'm refurbing my 17"s or upgrading to 2004 18"s. The RX8 option is too much hassle for me Car was all over the road for the past week of bad weather. Ended up parking it up and driving a landcruiser over the christmas period

Thanks for the link , just checked out their site there and am about to order a set of struts. Hopefully that'll do the trick! Cheers Ray

Only seen this now , thanks for the reply. Decided it's too much hassle , by the time i pay H&R for the spacers , refurb and buy tires it'll work out too expensive. Am on the hunt for a set of 2004 18" wheels now , hope they dont ruin the ride quality

Hmm maybe so , it's my first LS so unsure. It's very stiff to lift up , must be something not right all the same

Yup was supposed to mention that too , dont know if it's worth the hassle or not! Will pm him now , cheers for that

Should the boot on an LS430 pop open completely when you open it with the remote? Just mine pops open but only moves an inch. To lift the boot up , it is very stiff. There is a strap on the left hand side that makes me think that it might pop open fully and close again when i hit the remote but that is probably wishful thinking! What is the strap for? And do the rams get weak on them? Regards Ray

Tried fitting a mates RX8 wheels to my 2001 430 , they do not clear the front calipers. What spacers do people use when fitting? Also the factory wheel nuts look ridiculous! Can the Mazda ones be used? Regards Ray
