  1. Just checking...have you tried driving off after going through the process? My car does this (automatically locks), but only once you reach a certain speed - like 12-15MPH.
  2. Removing the brake reservoir cap under the bonnet might make it easier to push the piston.
  3. They'll fit fine. So will your existing tyres. Go for it.
  4. Perhaps simply because the CT200h was discontinued for the USA in 2017. (Those springs were sold in/made for the US market if I'm not mistaken)
  5. You don't have to but F-Sport suspension is 10mm lower than normal, so theoretically there'll be a bigger gap in the wheel wells. It likely won't look that bad given your suspension has probably sagged a bit over time.
  6. The wheels are off an IS Convertible. I'd imagine the usual 62mm centre caps that fit various other Lexus wheels will also fit these.
  7. Yeah, GS wheels will fit. A good number of Lexus cars have the same PCD and centre bore size (5x114.3, 60.1mm), so those from other models will also fit an IS. Including the OEM wheels my car came with, I've had 4 different sets on mine and currently, I alternate between these two. 18" MY2010 "Hoshi" F-Sport wheels (summer). 18" 2013+ 3rd Gen IS F-Sport wheels (winter). Hard to say which ones I prefer as I always seem to think they look better than the other set each time I swap between them, but if I had to narrow it down, I'd pick the Hoshis. Especially in the OG titanium-style finish. I also had a set of 19" IS-F wheels for a while, but was never really endeared by them. My previous car had the optional "Baransu" (aka G-Spyder) wheels. Of which I was definitely a fan.
  8. Yep, they're all 8" wide. Only cars with 18" wheels have a wider set on the rear.
  9. I believe its in one of the fuse boxes in the engine bay.
