Apologies for the late response to your replies, was out of action for a few days. I've decided to take the risk and purchase the unit, as the garage "believe" that the connectors look OK - the supplier sent a photo. Will let you know how I get on once the unit is receive and fitted. Just for info the unit (second hand) is costing £30 + postage & VAT. Thanks for your responses

Hi, Got a bit of a dilemma on replacing the airbag control unit ( under the centre console) for my 1995 GS300. Local Garage say's it's returning an error code and needs replacement, but I'm having difficulty finding the correct part on the second user parts side - what I need is 89170-30060, but all I could initially find was 89170-30161, which won't fit (wrong connectors). I have managed to locate a unit with a very similar part no. 89170-30070 and to avoid yet more expense purchasing this on spec and paying for garage fitting time, I had hoped that someone out there might have had similar experience and could advise me Here's hoping!

Hi Tigerfish, Took your advice, and got lucky (for once in my life) - no code present, so unit worked without a problem. Although it seems a "messy" and complicated process, it was relatively easy to accomplish - thanks again for your response. Regards Ian

Hi, I've managed to acquire a 2nd hand radio from a breaker, I intended to replace my existing radio as I have a lot of interference building up on reception over the past year or so. I've seen the "posts" on removal, so I know how to tackle this, what worries me is the code - I've no idea what the "replacement" radio code is, and no way of obtaining the chassis number of the donor vehicle. Does this mean that my only option is a Lexus dealer to re-set the unit, or have any of you "wizards" out there cracked this in another way? Thanks

It seems you've had no replies on this subject - I've just noticed a similar problem on mine, and wondered if you'd made any progress on sourcing a supplier?

Ok - thanks for sharing, I was hoping to get just the bushes (this is what the garage has informed me has "play") - but I guess might have to settle for the full rear unit replacement.

Hi, Hope somebody out there can assist - I'm trying to get hold of replacement suspension bushes (upper rear - both sides) for my GS 300 Mk 1 (1995) so far without any luck. Does anybody know where I can source these from? Thanks in advance

Hi Anyone know if the ECU can be "swopped" out - got a potential problem with mine. I'm looking to replace with a unit of the same year & model (GS 300 Mk1 1995), but aware that in some manufactures they link ECU to the chassis number/type. Any guidance gratefully received

Many thanks this is useful information - I'll take up your suggestion

Anyone attempted to "fix" the light on a GS 300 (Mk 1) tachometer indicator needle? - thought I'd check as this has all the hallmarks of being a big job, but would be delighted to be proven wrong.
