I did some more googling about this, and on US forums a few people said that they have done the swap, and apparently it's quite simple. They said you can buy the F Sport gauges for about 500 USD and it's relatively straight forward to swap it, but the mileage reading of the car is stored in the gauges unit. So you would have to re-program the correct mileage afterwards. If you didn't, well I guess that would be breaking some laws (fraud/misrepresenting the car or whatever.)

F sport steering has a F sport badge at the bottom (6 o'clock)
Well it's definitely not an F Sport steering wheel then.

How can I tell if the steering wheel is standard or F Sport? What are the differences?

I must admit that I only use mine once in a blue moon! It is a cool feature to show off with though.
That's exactly it, you show it off once, and you're done. 🙂 I would actually prefer if it had the option of an analog speedometer as well, but sadly it doesn't.

If the dials slide, they're the F Sport dials:
Ok well that confirms it then, it definitely slides. It's a cool feature, I really like it, not sure if it's really necessary, but very cool nevertheless! X-)

Being a Lexus noob, it is entirely possible that I'm wrong, maybe it's not the F Sport dials at all. My wife has the car at the moment so I can't take a photo of it, but I had taken a video of it earlier, not sure if I can attach it here but I'll try.
EDIT: Ok the video attachment didn't work, but here are some screencaps of it, sorry about the poor quality.
There is a button on the steering wheel to move the dial to the side and access the menu.

Thank you Linas.
That is weird indeed! Yeah the dials are working perfectly. Here's hoping that they keep working for a long time! 🙂

It probably doesn't really matter, but the vehicle was originally purchased from Lexus Manchester.

Hi everyone,
I just bought my first Lexus and I'm new to the forum. I have a query about the specification of my car, it is an Executive Edition, but also has the F Sport dials (the customizable tachometer and no speedometer, except the digital readout). I've perused whatever brochures I could find online, but none of them state the F Sport gauges as an option. Would anyone happen to know if they were an option back in 2014?

No, it's not that one. 🙂 By the way, the book in the car says that mine was bought from "Lexus Manchester 282-286 Bury New Road Manchester M7 2YJ", the address of it seems to fairly closely match Lexus in Bolton (301 Bury Rd), but when I enquired them about the car, they advised that they had not sold it. Does anyone know if "Lexus Manchester" is still (or ever was) a thing?
