  1. Hey Farqui, What section or parts did you get and price if thats ok to share?
  2. Im a little confused now. Lifelong wanted something like £830 for the rear section. Front section need to check the car before quoting. Lexus wanted about £600 for rear and over £1000 for front. Plus tips, some joints and rubber etc, almost £2000. Waiting on TonyBanks. Thought it was going to be straightforward. I think i need to take to another garage to see what really is needed.
  3. Looking good Farqui. I'll give tony banks a call as well then. Lifelong still hasnt replied for days. Just saw they in Leeds! I want completely stock look and sound. by the way how do they control the sound to make it oem? Is it genuinely oem sound or will be a little different?
  4. Thanks all, Im after oem if poss but over a grand seems a bit much, maybe next best option is a custom one then to be close to stock as poss. Will try longlife and call birmingham i think Im worried if i get some aftermarket one from ebay, i wont know the quality and the sound. Thank you Ps. by the way where does everyone get their parts from? I would ideally want oem but happy to go something aftermarket but guaranteed quality. Someone who makes parts close to stock but lower prices. I know a lot of other car brands have such parts but nothing for lexus gs? As i am also looking for a passenger side headlight unit but cannot find anything except from dealer
  5. thank you guys, i think a custom one then. are they just as silent as an oem one? Do you have any recommended places for custom? im from cambridgshire by the way why did you suggest lexus birmingham? are they much cheaper than other lexus places?
  6. i see. dealer wants over £1000 and i cannot find any other supplier. Can anyone point me to where i can get it cheaper? gs300 mk3 Thanks
  7. Hi there, Ive been told by a garage that on the GS300 (2005) that the whole system needs to be replaced as the gs cannot be replaced rear, mid etc. Doesnt sound right to me? Is this true? If so where can i get one at a good price? Thanks

    GS Headlight

    Hi, Im looking for a passenger side 2005 GS300 Headlight. Everything is working but is leaking water in and after new seals etc it is still leaking, so want to just replace the housing kit? Thanks
  9. Hey, you guys say that the sonys work well when get into car but if u get out again without turning engine off and when u re-enter car, will it autoconnect again?
  10. All bluetooth phones should do this? Ive tried a fair few now and still only the k700 does it! im pretty sure it isnt time dependant as u said not straight away as by the time i get to work, it still doesnt connect! however the majority of the phones i have tried are old and new sonys and the not so new nokias plus a few others, which seems to be not the ones u guys are using which does it!!
  11. dam, i tried so many phones now, maybe i have just been unlucky with teh ones i get??
  12. Maybe i didnt describe it clearly? or i misunderstood what u were saying? The phone connects to the bluetooth fine when i get in it. but when i leave the car with phone in pocket and teh engine still running it wont connect back (eg. i start car up in morning, my phone in my pocket, the phone connects to the car. i decide to run back into house to go to toilet (leaves the engine running), the distance too far from car so it disconnects, after the toilet, i go back into car, it wont automatically connect itself, the only way is to turn engine off then on again). the only phone that can auto connect itself again is the k700. does anyone know which phone can reconnect itself like this? thanks Tango - u said when ur phones connect when in range, do u mean reconnecting like the eg i just gave? or do u mean the first time when u start engine? Steve - when u initially start the engine, like u said it takes about 20secs to connect however with the k700 where it is already connected and i leave the car with engine running and i return, as soon as i approach teh car, maybe by the door about to open it, it already connects itself, (very rapid), i want to find another phone that can do this
  13. Hey guys, I have a gs300 sel and although the bluetooth works well, i ahve only found one phone where once the phone is connected (engine or electrics still on), if u move away from the car far enough for teh phone to disconnect itself, then when u walk back to teh car it will connect itself again, the only phone that does this i ahve found so far is the SEk700 and i ahve tried old and new phones different makes and this is the only phone that can do this. Does anyone at all know what other phones can do this? as the k700 is getting a bit old now, i tried many others but they jsut wont connect back. the only way for it to connect again is if i turn the engine off then on again. Can anyone help? Much appreciated.
  14. On the new GS. when u open the rear window at speeds, it makes an awful racket!! Ive been in other luxury cars and even normal cars yet the wind noise coming in is nothing like it!! anyone experienced this??
  15. Oh i forgot to add Good - 6230 as well & K610i Thanks for the reply guys!
