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

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.

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

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 -

Jamescokell replied to Jamescokell's topic in Modifications & Tuning
Thanks Chaps. The start hopefully of many improvements. Next I fancy the vland rear lights. but i just dropped £800 on wheels and tyres so should probably hold fire for a few months. -

Hey Colin, I finally managed to source the front wheels. I've ordered the tyres as above and National tyres are querying saying it would typically be 255/35R 18s? Any help would be great. James -

Hey guys, if anyone here happens to see or hear of two front alloys of this type for sale would really appreciate a heads up. They seem to me rarer than rocking horse ****. thanks James -
I saw this lovely IS250 for sale on Facebook marketplace and noticed the additional front splitter and rear bumper and spoiler which all look great, are these factory fitted or aftermarket? They all look like subtle ways to give the car a more sporty appearance and would love to do the same to mine. Thanks James
