SUBMARINE

HELLO ZEBBER Its alot simpler than you think. First of all each head lamp has a smallish electric motor with a triangle plug all I did was to modify the spyder headlamps (is300) to a (is200) and swap the motors over to the new headlamps. The actual ride height actuator is left untouched and all you need to do is turn the small dashboard ride height adjuster switch to suit the best driving position and/or calibrate the headlamps against a white wall .(this is important as I noticed the Xenons are much brighter and I would 'nt like to be dazzled by them) Since fitting them night driving is less alot less strain on the eyeballs ! I also had a look at your website worldtuningfans and the black logo is very nice. Tonight if i Have the time I will vernier caliper my badge and check out the size.As my front grill is slightly chipped I need to plastic spray the grill so I might as well do the mod conversion all in one go...c'ant wait to see what yours looks like in the dark ! If you need help on your headlamps just ask ....it took me quite some time to get it spot on but I d'ont regret doing the job its completely changed its appearance. rgds pmb

Hello david Just got back from a ship check in Jeddah will be doing the full monty next week probably around wednesday will take a few photos as i will be doing the bumper holes for the actuator holes if you look at my gallery you will see all the parts you need. rgds pmb

:hohoho: Hello all Has anybody fitted a Lexus led logo on the front grill ? I know the CT200 has got a blue coloured logo any ideas ? regards pmb :luck:

Hello Ian Just to let you know got the parts today '13.15 PM MANY THANKS FOR THE PROMP SERVICE Regards pmb

Hello Ian Thats a bit of good news ! No need for the vernier caliper this week end ! Will post pictures soon. Regards pmb

Hello Ian Just to keep the post alive I received the morning from Merlin International the pipe work +headlamp nozzle and the famous bumper covers and all fixtures and fitting. Just now need the cabin switch and of course your pump and relay ! I will be taking a photo of all the parts and a few more while doing the installation and all for a budget of 100 quid: Just a small tech question for you I need to cut two square slots for the head lamp nozzle washers and I was wondering if you had a good ideas/tips how best to proceed with this type of process. I read some where that inside the bumper the markings or slots were etched on the surface ? regards Pat

Sorry Ian its the bumper coloured square hats I am looking for nevertheless this particular ebayer will get my order for the actuators next week just got a reply on the freight costs; regards pmb

Ok Ian I have noted the link but I won't be able to open it until tonight as ebay/facebook are blocked by our firewal servers and d'ont sell the relay or the pump I still want them please. Thanks pmb

Hello Nigel Look at my galley photos . The instalation is complicated but night time driving is alot better and be careful to respect local legislation here is a direct link to the spyder website. http://spyderauto.com/product.php?id=PRO-YD-LIS01-HID-DRL-BK&t=Lexus-IS300-01-05-(-HID-Type-)-DRL-LED-Projector-Headlights-Black The quality is ok but you will need to buy a full xenon kit with very slim or small ballasts and two extra indicator bulb holders with bulbs and two headlamp support clips pn 5327144010 in case you break the old clips as they can be tricky to open up; and of course a xenon headlamp washer nozzle cleaning system(whih i am in the midst of putting a kit together).Fitting time on your own would be a complete day (8hrs) should amply cover it. What more can i say ...best of luck Nigel

Following Ian's Help I am looking for a pair either new or second hand for a pair of nozzles has any one got some? The colour is not important as i can respray them .(checked eb...y nothing in Europe. 85341 NOZZLE, HEADLAMP CLEANER WASHER 85382-53010-B1 DK.GRAY M.M., 1C6, LH 85381-53010-B1 DK.GRAY M.M., 1C6, RH http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/p_E_2004_LEXUS_IS200~300_GXE10L-AEFVKW_8505.html Many thanks regards pmb

Exactly and thats why I have one I prefer Japanese reliability to the local run of the mill boring saloons ! And when I was in the Uk I had VAG; and the next car will be a Lexus as well.... nothing to beat them ! pmb
