  1. Thanks for the pointer. Is the bumper tough to remove. I have a basic knowledge around cars but not taken a bumper off previously
  2. Is there any instructions videos on how to install these? i have all the parts but its not clipping in with ease and without removing the bumper which i am not keen on doing it is proving to be a pain. I bought the body colour cover from lexus (interestingly had to modify to fit due to fins) but the clip was third party from Lituania via ebay. Thanks James
  3. Dear all, looks like the car wash i visited has blasted off the cover for my front drivers side light washer cap. Any idea of where to get one? In Oxford blue
  4. Hi Martin. Sorry I missed your response. I went to the f sport 18 multi spokes. They're lovely looking but definitely have a minor effect on mpg. James
  5. I can confirm go with the aux option. Taking the nav unit out is not worth the hassle. I did it this morning to install the blue tooth cable, and it's impossible not to damage the sticky dash. It's so brittle that the slightest scrape will mark and cut it. The new connection works well but was not worth the cosmetic damage that has now broken my heart.
  6. Thanks for the responses chaps. i think i have found one with the right connections but wrong colour, however i think i can strip the one i have and put the body coloured pieces on this one. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/184377074162?hash=item2aedbae1f2:g:-s4AAOSwU2FfHWns
  7. Dear all, So my drivers side wing mirror doesn't retract and hasn't since i bought the car in feb this year. I didn't think much of it as replacement second hand parts seem plentiful and i watched an online video that made it look simple. Well it turns out if you have the SE-L its not quite that simple. I ordered the part from eBay, correct colour, £40 and in great nick https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/203317675422. So i waited for a nice sunny Saturday to do the swap and once I had carefully prized the door trim off as per the video I am greeted with a red box attached the door the instructional video didn't have with an additional plug required to make the mirror adjust that the replacement wing mirror doesn't possess. I have done some digging and it turns out I bought a wing mirror from a car that doesn't have the seat presets facility and can only swap with another SE-L specific wing mirror with additional functionality and 2nd plug, have I read this right? if so, balls. Also the replacement wingmirror which I also suspect is off a newer car only has two leads for the heated glass and mine has 3. Thanks James
  8. Apologies this was written on my phone which isn't working correctly and had no idea how nonsensical it was. Thanks for the feedback. James
  9. Hi all, Anyone know what this plastic triangle is? It's only on one side. Was there she I brought the cat. I want to tear it off but worried what it could do to the paintwormy. James
  10. Hi There, Unfortunately the link doesn't work anymore, any chance you could let me know what the device was as i am very interested in getting one. this worked n a pre-facelift version right? Thanks James
  11. Has anyone tried this, is it possible? wondering if you can and if you get the extra functionality of the with the locks?
