I'm after a gs300 mk1 sport grille Doesn't matter what colour Want one to improve the looks and get rid of my cracked and scratched standard grille Has to be the sport grille not the chrome type

sorry to ***** on your bonfire but i had a problem with my gs300 mk1 NON sport the barrel refused to let the key in i managed to get the ignition switch off and bodge it so i could use it till i got a new one so on ebay i managed to get from a 1996 gs300 sport a complete steering colomn and lock set with a key and an alarm fob for £30 (bargin) i never got a fob when i got the car so i though great this is a bonus i fitted the steering lock and got a local lock smith to sort the barrle out so it fitted the old key with the chip in for £60 (bargin again) now this is all fine and dandy and the car starts and locks with the original ket to save getting the car and key reprogrammed after searching i came across this post i tried everything to get the fob to work the alarm and keyless entry but it dont work (gutted) question is ..does the sport have a different alarm system or keyless entry to the NON sport?

got some gs300 sport wheels real cheap little bit of laquer pealing but 4 good tyres for £180

Very clean wheels but way out of my budget

anyone got any cheap gs300 sport rims or deep dish wheels to fit not worried about tyres just need to get rid of the standard wheels i have on mine

i got 1 now about time now i dont have a spongey break pedal yipee

Cheers tigerfish for some reason it won't let me send anything if the breakers can't get me one will you send him a question about it will let ya know by Wednesday

my bad lol i got one from a breakers this morning and when i got it home realised it was drivers side and they aint got another i cant believe my luck

i bet it was the bottom slider that was seized both of my bottom sliders are seized i got the drivers side today now i need the passenger side

cheers calipers are ok its the carrier that holds the pads with the sliders in it was the slider that was seized and then i snapped it trying to free it off

anyone got a passenger side front caliper carrier mine snapped the slider so i cant put the caliper back on preferbly in the london or essex area

im after a drivers seat from a mk1 gs300 in grey leather (electric not sure if they all are as im new to lexus) my drivers seat has seen better days anyone got one?

ok mate would be much appretiated

How did you get on with the radio brackets if they worked with the Toyota fasia and the cubby hole what was the bracket numbers

sorry to drag up an old thread did the radio brackets work im ordering the facia and the pocket but need numbers for the brackets i understand from the friendly toyota parts bloke that there is nothing listed for the lexus gs300 but for the aristo jzs147 there is loads of types just wondered how you got on and did it work cheers

Looks like off to Toyota on my day off then cheers tigerfish

ive heard i might need to change the side brackets too any ideas

Any on got a mk1gs300 or aristo sport grille they look much better than the chrome one I have

can anyone help with finding a radio panel i have taken the standard radio out i want to put my single din radio in and cant find a radio conversion panel for a uk right hand drive all i find is left hand drive panel someone must make one you cant be telling me that all the import aristos and cars that are right hand drive all keep the standard radio can anyone help i have the wiring sorted with the use of other peoples wiring colours (thanks to them big time)

ive just got my gs300 ive used tigerfish guide he helped someone a while back telling what wire colours on the standard plug are and soldered an iso plug to the wires that way i can put the standard radio back then got in the boot litrally and soldered wires from the white plug to the orange plug to bypass the amp removing the amp and cd changer also the standard radio and parcel shelf sub (massive weight saving) then plugged my kenwood radio with ipod attachment and run wires for a bass box and amp the standard speakers sound much better with this set up now

cheers dude i will give that a try and see if i can find a 2 button fob by the way i love the look of your car

i take it no one can help has no one got an alarm fob on the same model

oh ok mine isnt a sport so that would be why it has not got 1 are they cheap and easy to find if i wanted 1

gonna sound dumb here as im new to lexus what grille is that
