  1. Peter Any chance of a link to where you bought them? My son lives in the USA and I may get him to get me a set - and I will collect when I visit in July!! Thanks John
  2. They just need re initialising. Just go to each individual window go all the way down and hold for a second then all the way up and hold. they should work by the drivers side now :)
  3. Found this on the site... That's right. Underneath the TRC/snow button the bulb is located. Turn it (maybe 1/2) turn with a screwdriver and the bulb will pop out. The replacement bulb you need is part no. 84999-10490, order it from your local Lexus dealer- I paid £3 for a replacement bulb- you might be able to get the same bulb online cheaper- I don't know? Hope it helps...
  4. Had the same problem - I just bought a cheap ipod of eBay.... Sound is perfect but the selection (and display) of tracks using the steering wheel controls could be a lot better. I spent £30 on the ipod - just leave it in the car connected.....
  5. I'm guessing it may be an ipod connector - without pictures though it's only a guess :)
  6. Just a thought, j8pfc, but could you not offer to sell your disc to dellbrowne for, say, £25? That would be of benefit to both of you. In saying this, I am assuming that the disc can be used for more than one vehicle - if it can be used only once, then forget what I have said. No, unfortunately the DVD has to remain in the car!!
  7. I bought the latest map dvd from a seller in Poland on eBay.... The advantage (to me) is the ability to programme the route while moving... It was a genuine disc and cost me £50. You can buy the genuine discs online (or from lexus direct) but they would have cost £130 and I wouldn't have used 3 of them :)
  8. Del I always have my wheels refurbed at the wheel specialist in Nottingham. They do a brilliant job and I have never had any complaints. Google it and give mark a call I am sure he can sort you out. Small parts - you could always check out eBay for someone who is breaking a car or even the part itself? Otherwise try the main dealers. Can't help you with garages I'm afraid... John
  9. You won't regret it :) Fitting takes about 30 minutes... Enjoyment lasts as long as you own the car :)
  10. My son lives in Indianapolis, so I ordered one and had it shipped to him... Then collected when I visited. Performance gain - negligible Sound- absolutely brilliant when you 'accidentally' press down hard with your right foot.. I consider it money well spent - but it is expensive and there are cheaper alternatives....
  11. This may help..... Buttons/directions may not apply to your 450 but May point you in the right direction http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RtRh6vjqqHc&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DRtRh6vjqqHc
  12. Now I feel really old - I remember watching the sensational Alex Harvey band at knebworth..... What I didn't realise is that it was in 1974 - where have those 40 years gone?
  13. Check out: http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/topic/57435-dash-centre-speaker-panel-removal/ Should be what you are looking for :)
  14. They did them at the same time as the alloys.. £5 each..... They certainly look better than my previous set with the silver centre caps... You could always do them yourself using the method above..
  15. I always use the Wheel Specialists in Nottingham to refurb my alloys. http://www.thewheelspecialist.co.uk/ Give Mark a ring - I am sure he will sort you out - brilliant service and fantastic finish.... I posted a picture of my latest refurbed rims here.... http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/topic/84170-wheel-refurbishment/ Hope this helps... :)

    Is250 Dipstick

    This dipstick - has misplaced [lost in the garage somewhere] the dipstick from my 2008 IS250... If anyone has one, or knows of where I can get one.... I would be grateful
  19. Better late than never... as promised alloys in charcoal anthracite from the Wheel Specialist in Nottingham........and how they look on the car :)
  20. Just had mine done in charcoal/anthracite by the Wheel Specialist in Nottingham Unfortunately the colour on their website does not match the colour of the wheels..... (thewheelspecialist.co.uk) I will take some pictures tomorrow and post them for info
  21. A quick google found this.... http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/topic/78597-cost-of-new-normal-battery/
  22. Hi..... If i'm not working I may drop in........ Bad not to really as its so close to home.... Please put me down as 'will attend if not working'... Thanks John
  23. There is a set for sale on Pistonheads :) http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3789139.htm
  24. Hi,they seem to be wrong as they usually are 215.45.17 Okay, thankyou. Does anyone have any advice regarding fitting winter tyres? Also is there a problem with my current set being 205 instead of 215? Thanks again! I was in the same situation last year with my IS200 Sport In the end I bought a set of 16" alloys and fitted them with 205/55/16 winter tyres..... [they were cheaper and easier to find than 215/45/17] Now if you need a good set of 16" alloys - look no further than the for sale section :winky:
