  1. Hi Andy, I was quoted £80+VAT for the emulator (my typo last time!). I just wanted to fid out a bit more about how the fuel system read the levels before getting it installed. I'll get it done in the next few weeks if I can be 100% convinced it will correct the error. Only recently, when I topped up petrol to check my petrol:gas usage the gauge didn't register the now full tank!!! Very frustrating. Someone else has posted that you can't start on gas - in the event of no petrol you can start using most systems. I'll keep you posted on the "upgrade". Macca (VO2)
  2. Hi Skip, if you're still looking to convert to LPG - I just had my trusty 2000 Harrier converted for £1400 all in ( incl flaslube). PIckup and drop off + courtesy car for the 4 days. Corby based company. Drives perfectly - highly recommend the change. Top end power / speed slightly capped, but no real issue. Rgds Macca 
  3. Thanks a heap for the info. I'll get on the shopping spree...!
  4. Thanks for the info - very helpful. I've had a look at the wiring (as the translated Users Manual finally arrived in the post yesterday after a age!!). Mine doesn't have the rear fog option fitted as it has 2 reversing lights. I'm gonna try and switch it to a fog on one side instead. Just gotta get my brain around the wiring as I want it to follow the 'G' option that will work with the display light in the Meter Display. I'm sure I'll get there eventually. Don't want any "halfords" danglers on the RX. (No offense Halfords - or "danglers"!!!). Did you get the OEM clusters from manufacturer or 2ndary source? Just curious - theyu look cool in the pics. Thanks for the Lexus vs Toyota info...just someone mentioned that I might potentially have problems if stopped for any reason and the car badging was different to the paperwork. Hence the inquiry. Cheers, Mac :D
  5. Hi folks, re the Hong Kong model reports - I wouldn't hold your breath for that as I have just returned from living there and inquired about this. The main place listed (ETC HK Ltd) has a wrong telephone number listed so don't bother. When talking to the owner - he said he hasn't done a model report for ages and is a bit "rusty". He was helpful but not "helpful". I'm now getting ready for the SVA test etc so I can get the vehicle (3.0 L Lexus RX300, '98) on the road in the UK. Whilst my vehicle has approved for use on HK roads (passed their EU spec emissions tests etc) I have no paperwork from the previous owner to support this. A sticker in the engine bay states it has passed but the company listed seems to have gone out of business!! Sods law! If someone could give me some pointers for the SVA I'd be very grateful. In particular: Q.1. After market reversing sensors have been added to aftermarket custom bumpers. Can I get these through or do I have to return the car to factory original condition? Q.2. When registering the vehicle (all being well!) does testing certification for Harrier allow me to register it as Lexus 300 (as it is badged throughout as RX 300 & not Harrier)? Must all the paperwork be the same in other words? Q.3. I want to set up my rear fog to operate using the dashboard tell-tale (not being used at present) instead of installing another switch? Can I hook all fogs (front & back) to the operate from factory fog switch on the headlight stalk? Q.3 I also want to incorporate the rear fog into the light clusters (poss using one of reversing lights). Has anyone done this with RX ? Will that violate the SVA? I've read so much sodding paperwork that it seems a bit of lottery in some cases even with Model reports. Cheers, Mac
