Hi Ken, I can't believe it but I'm looking for exactly the same stick on trim bit..... is it RHS? Again my stealer asked me for about the same price to replace a whole window, which is not needed. It makes me wonder if there are more of us out there with this problem due to a design fault. (My trim just came off on a journey) Let me know if you find a solution eh?! Regards, Buzz. hello Buzz...yep thats the offending bit..... I recently tried to mount some kind of green issue protest to Lexus UK HQ.... via their "customer support" people....you get the picture... some dumb twit, sitting in an office, pasting pre-prepared replies to an e-mail, just to make their day easier. When this dimwit started to refer to the lenses in the quarterlight, I told him/her to go back and tell the morons that they had supposedly spoken in their so called technical dept, that a quarterlight was well known motoring term apertaining to a part of a window...Groan.. I was attempting to put Lexus into an acknowledgement that to bundle the plastic bit with a piece of glass, so as to rachet up the price, and then expect to throw it away was not good in todays environmentally sensitive climate. Regrettably their stamina in preparing clueless answers was stronger than mine, flipping me back to my local dealer so I gave up, but I still maintain that if the glass is unbroken then it is a total rip off to have to buy a new piece, and even more infuriating is the expectancy to have to pay a glazing specialist to fit it.........!!!! There must be a growing market for these trims, perhaps we ought to send one off to some Chinese injection moulder,,,heh heh Time to break out the hammer..? best wishes in your quest Ken

Hello, new to this forum, but frustration getting the better of me.. Has any solved the solution of replacing the plastic cover trim which finishes off the rear quarterlight. I have have had a daft response from my lexus dealer of £165,which they say has to include the quarterlight glass too. Having explained to them that there is nothing wrong with the glass, and its just that someone has had a go a pulling it off and broken a part of it off, they insist that the trim is not available seperately. It's obvious (to me anyway), that the trim is simply a push on cover trim, colour matched to the paint, but is plastic and is relatively cheap to produce, but why bundle it with a quarterlight glass, so that the price becomes silly. Frankly I cannot see why a lexus dealer would take out a perfectly good piece of glass and replace it with another...or perhaps they would simply discard the new glass anyway, and simply fit the trim, but charge me a ridiculous price in the bargain. Anyone a better route to a solution please?
