  1. Thanks Stef, I've emailed him but didnt get a reply yet. good to know he is still in business!
  2. Hi guys, Can anyone help me find a good place or site or someone who can supply me with sparkplugs for a 2008 is250 90k service? Thanks in advance! Eugene
  3. Thanks for the reply guys, I know sewell use to sell these card keys but they are out of business now. Does any one know where I can buy the card key? I've lost a Fob key and if it is going to cost me $500 for a replacement I would rather get a card key reprogrammed.
  4. Ive seen a lot of debates around this but everyone seem to have a different answer. Does anyone know if I can get a Lexus SMART Card Key (Key size of a creditcard) for my is250 2008? IN AUSTRALIA! Thanks! E

    BUMP! $50 need it gone!
  6. Thanks heaps Tasweb!! I have tested out the batteries so I think I will have a look at the overhead module to see if it will be easy to connect. Cheers!
  7. Thanks for the reply Tasweb, I connected mine to the fuse box under the steering wheel(Both gound and Acc) going through the A pillar and the back camera same as yours. I heard about connecting it on to the overhead module but had no idea how to do it. Same as yours I dont have a sunglass holder, I think and I am not sure the thing that is in the overhead module is a GPS? maybe? was it easy to connect it to the overhead module? its funny because the remote works fine when I disconnect the main power of the dashcam, assuming there is an interference of the remote signal I am having difficulties finding where the remote receiver is located.. I think I can fix them if I know where it is... But please let me know if you have any suggestions. Cheers!
  8. Hi Guys, Does anyone know the location of the remote receiver is? I got a dashcam installed but after the installation I need to get real close(approx 1m) to my car for it to open. when I disconnect the dashcam the remote works fine (3m+ distance). Does anyone have a recommendation on how to fix this prob..? Any suggestions will be nice! Thanks in advance!

    NOT HID! Bought it thinking it was HID but found out after I took out my bumper… a bit devastated.. anyway it is in great condition as you can see from the pics. Bought it for $80 selling it for $80 Please give me a buzz. I am having difficulties uploading the fotos I can send it if you want. SOLD
  10. Haha I agree, I want to read about it but I cant find any info here.
  11. I read some good review on this car. Are there going to be a new forum for is200t? or will it be under is250?
  12. Time for tyre change? I changed mine and the handling of the steering wheel changed dramatically
  13. Hi guys, Does any have a spare cluster for a 2008 is250? I am actually after the needles but willing to buy the whole cluster..
  14. I got a letter too. Bought my is250 2008 sports lux privately too. Ive called lexus telling them I am the new owner and they sent me the recall letter.
  15. Hi mate, This may be a real stupid question but are there any perfomance gain on putting on the sports pedals? Or is it just the looks? saw some posts that some kind of response rate? is different? very lost here...
  16. I've asked the guys at Tanin Auto Electronix in US and they quoted me $150 for both needles + $150 core fee( Core fee will be refunded after I return my old needles back to them) + postage.. I think it will be better off finding a is250 wreckage and buying the cluster off them.. Thanks guys
  17. Thanks heaps mate! yea I was thinking about the same thing changing the needle to the isf ones but I cant find someone who is willing to sell just the needle for the cluster.. Ive looked in sewell parts, ebay gumtree but no luck.. my best bet is to find a is250 wreckage and buy the whole cluster set. Thanks for the answer :)
  18. How hard is it change the needle? hear it was very sensitive.. is it easy as just pulling it out with force and replacing them? or is there a special tool that I need to use?
  19. Hi guys, I have been searching the entire net for an answer but no luck. My cluster needle on the RPM side has blacked out, to be precise the upper half bit is blacked out. I am assuming the led lighting up the needle has blown out. now is there any one who has the same problem as me? how did you guys fix it? I am 100% sure that if I take it to the lexus guys they will tell me to change the whole speedometer cluster which will be $1000+.. I am quite good at soldering and have no problem taking the cluster out. to my knowledge it will be a small led light that will be on the back of the cluster. so 1. is it easy to change the led for the needle? 2. would it work if just change the needle from another secondhand cluster? I need your guidance!!! Thanks!! (2008 Lexus is250 Sports Luxury)
  20. I get this too! I thought I was going mad. the hot air isnt from the vent it actually feels like its coming from under the steering wheel or the pedal. it happens really randomly I cant seem to find out what is causing this
  21. Did you get your windows tinted? I am having slight problems since I got my windows tinted, was told it will affect my GPS signals but I don't use Navigation that much so Im sort of ok for now. If I open up my windows the I get the signals back
  22. Hi guys I just installed the Auto Mirror for my is250 with the help of Ashpoint. Much easier than you think! Took me around 40minutes to do mine. As I was unsure of the electrical wiring behind the door panel I've took it to Michael's(Ashpoint) garage so he could guide me through it. Simple process all you need to know is some soldering techniques and how to cut the electric tape lol Thanks again for your help Ashpoint.
  23. Hi guys thanks for the replies, I actually took the screen away to see if it can be fix but cuz I've used a alcohol based liquid it smudged the plastic ( melted) therefore it cant be replaced.. ended up buying the screen for $100 which I think it was awfully expensive.. newayz thanks for the replies!!
