Thanks to all who replied regarding "driving on the right" topic. I feel a bit more confident now that I will not get stopped the first night I am driving in Europe without any adjustment to my headlamps. I previously raised another topic on which I would appreciate a response from those in the know. I have been trying to source a new set of genuine Lexus mats for my RX450 H Advance (2065). As I mentioned previously, I tried Lexus's eBay accessories shop and that was a disaster. The mats did not fit my car and I had to send them back. You wouldn't believe the hassle involved in sending something back and then trying to get a refund for an item that was meant to fit your car but didn't (including a refund for £16 postage). I have no wish to repeat that experience (Lexus being the loser - they really need to get their act together). My question is: does anyone out there know how I can get genuine Lexus RX450 mats (new) guranteed to fit my car and not through the eBay route please Joep

many thanks, great relief. not like the old days when one had to swiftly stick on the headlamp adapters at Dover just before going abroad. Joe P

Thanks for that. However, I am not sure if my car has HID lights. I checked the electrical specification in my manual, but it is not clear whether they are HID or not (given that it is an RX 450H Advance, my guess would be that they are HID. In which case, if they are HID, do I need to disable the I-AFS setting? I will try adjusting the setting tonight and see whether it makes any difference. On another note (excuse me for going on about my problems, but I have not had the car long and I am still on a learning curve), my car has two settings ECO mode and sport mode. At the moment, the ECO mode is turned off. Does anyone know what this is supposed to do. My guess would be that it achieves greater economy at the expense of performance and conversely, the Sport mode achieves greater performance at the expense of economy.

I am planning a trip around Europe in my recently acquired RX450H Advance, 2015. can any anyone please tell me what adjustments I need to make to the headlights. My previous car was a Mercedes , where it is a very simple operation requiring a minor adjustment to the headlamp. Does the RX 450 H have a similar adjustment or do I have to do it the old fashioned way and buy a sticker from Halfords? Does this model come with an emergency triangle as standard kit, if so, where do I find it. I looked in the boot but I could not see one. Any help would be appreciated. On a separate issue, I have been trying to purchase a set of Lexus floor mats without much success. I tried the Lexus Accessories shop on eBay and using their own guidelines I ended up with the wrong mats. It took me a couple of weeks to return the items and get a refund. Is there a better way of buying accessories than using eBay. The whole set up is unnecessarily complicated and guaranteed to fail.
