Welcome :) That sensor is the rear ambient light sensor; part of the system that sets the variable light levels for the instrument display/auto dim mirrors etc.

David, Most important part of any DAB set up is the aerial invested in. Poor aerial then whatever the head unit, you get poor quality DAB. Info on the instal in my 450h here: http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/topic/100207-dab-addon/ hth M

Yes, something I need to get better with!

he heh, I won't Gary, honest, tho my own wife might............. back on topic - yesterday I did some paint touch up on the GS (with cocktail stick mind, no brush!) and today drove the SC up the A1 with the hope that when I return home later this afternoon, the sun will be shining and I can put the roof down - fingers firmly crossed..

This Lexus UK page offers a range of past brochures for models inc. the GS marque. I think it only goes back to model year 2008 but that should give you a good indication of the differences between SE and SE-L. Scroll down to the 'past brochures' area and use the drop down http://www.lexus.co.uk/owners/your-lexus/#/Introduction hth M

Me and swmbo took the SC430 to a Mercedes Dealer, just to show them.................... :)

12. Replace the shelf, plus 'detritius' and job is done.

8. squeeze the old filter to remove it, and insert new filter with the up arrow up! OEM replacement filter new filter in housing 9. replace filter housing making sure that both clips 'click into place 10.refit door. Firstly put the door back into position with the gap at the base. Once in position push the door downwards (direction of arrow) so that it returns to its original placing. 11. thus:

see pic for the gap that appears. OK that is the most difficult part done. Where the red arrow is insert a finger and pull the door GENTLY towards you so it moves over and down and then pull out 5. remove door and place to one side 6. you can now see the filter housing with a push in clip either side 7. push each clip in and pull the housing up; take hold and gently pull out towards you housing removed - note the up arrow which matches an arrow on your new filter

Changed the pollen filter on my GS450h today and took some pics in case it helps other members. If nothing else it can save you £xx paying a dealer.... It is a very simple and straightforward job, only requiring care and heeding the very first step so you don't break the system - if you don't follow step 1 to the letter then you will damage the filter cover door which is an expensive and awkward fix 1. turn engine on, switch aircon to recirc only so that the only button lit is the recirc one: Then turn off engine 2. open the glovebox, empty of all 'detritus' and take a firm hold on the shelf and shelf support in the lower centre (all one assembly) and gently pull out of the glove box and place to one side 3. you will then see the filter door cover (scuse the muck, needs a good hoovering) 4. push up vertically all the way along the top edge of the door until a gap apppears at the base cont. below
