Those kind of clips are generic and you'll find very similar on ebay. 

Hi - Any idea how i fit them? Not even sure what to search for on youtube as a guide?
Huge thanks!

Hi All - I have a Lexus IS250 and the trim below the glove box has completely come away. I tried bluetak but that did not last long. I dont know if access to it will be needed to change filters or anything which is why i have not used strong glue or epoxy.

Any suggestions on the easiest fix for this? Do i just need to get those little clips that you can see in one of the pictures, where do i get them from?

If the area is not needed to access to anything them i assume super glue or epoxy will hold it in place for a long time.

Any other suggestions welcome.
Thanks!

Hi All - I saw a 5th gear program below showing the difference shell Optimax premium fuel gives you over standard fuel.

They put all the car on a Dyno to measure the HP change. I was wondering if anyone here notices any difference in there Is250 between 95ron fuel and shell Optimax super premium fuel?

Thanks.

I emailed Lexus and they dont do the leather cleaning kit so will need to look else where. They suggested the link below but friends suggest thats rubbish. Does anyone know if the 2007 Is250 uses nappa leather?

Any suggestion for cleaning the dashboard? @NemesisUK

Hi All - I just the Lexus clan. We had a 20 year old VW Polo that gave up the ghost and have bought a 2007 is250 with 23k miles on it at the start of the year and love the car. Huge step up from a 20 year old Polo 😂image.gif

Just wanted to know what products you all are using the clean the dash. Its soft touch so not plastic so not sure what cleaner to use on it? My one seems to have a slight Mat finish to the dark grey dash. I assume it was never shiny from new? What would everyone suggest as a cleaner? I was going to get Autoglym as its highly rated on amazon but some friends who are car nuts say its average at best?

Also I have the Ivoy/ Very light cream leather seats which are perforated and heated and cooled and fully electrics. What are you all using to clean it?.... I'm afraid of spraying in product and it breaking the seating and cooled seats with the products going into the wholes and breaking the electrics. Also friends looking at pictures suggest it nappa leather which requires a different kind of cleaner.... is that true?

Any suggestions would be really welcome

Huge thanks!
