LS400 Wood Trim

[Luke Kidd 1]

Hello all, wondering if anyone had any info surrounding the wooden gear knob and wooden steering wheel, I know they're not to everyone's taste. I have a ucf20 face-lift, and would like to retrofit these to my car, I'm assuming this is a fairly simple process with them being only on the latest LS400. 

I'd also wonder what the price of these as an option were when new if anyone would know at all, just out of interest.

Finally wondering on how to obtain these, if they came in different colours, I have a grey interior car, and if anyone has some generic price bases for what I should expect to pay for each.

Thankyou for any response

Here's one, at a price!

I think the USA is your most likely source, unless a UK breaker comes up trumps.

Here's a previous topic on this forum:

Could've given a warning at that price!

Any part of the Lexus LS400 that as wood trim is expensive exclusively made by Yamaha musical instruments division for Lexus.

What's the general expected price for one in decent to good condition off of a breaking car, how do the prices of wood ones compare to the normal ones

I got a wood transmission knob for my LS430 (Fits the later LS400) from Paul Frost (Lexussparesdirect), he may be able to help with the steering wheel too.
