Broke My Footrest

[ChumpusRex]

I broke the footrest on the left side of the driver's footwell, after I put too much pressure on it.

Any idea how much on OEM one is going to set me back, or can anyone recommend a suitable aftermarket one?

(The actual footrest plastic has snapped, leaving one of the clips firmly attached to the plug in the floor. If anyone knows how to get this half clip off, it will also be appreciated)

You must have one of the 1st IS250s in the country as the release date was 11/2005.

There is normally a part number on the broken part,if you can post it up I'll look up the price.

Yup. First registered in Oct 2005. Used for 6 months as a dealer's demo vehicle.

The part has 2 part numbers on it:

58191-53090

58191-53100

try breakers on eBay... why buy a new part?

Defo...go to a breakers yard.

Found a breaker with an IS250 auto; a quick butcher's at the lexus parts catalogue reveals that all the trim levels and models have different footrests, and I don't think an IS220d one would fit, so it was challenging finding an IS250 auto.

I'm sure they're skinning me alive for what is an unimpressive piece of plastic - but I can only imagine that lexus would want twice as much.

I don't know. That one looks different.

I had a quick look through the parts catalogue and they all have totally different part numbers between models. So I don't know if that one would fit.

Your right... its for the IS200! doh!

Goto toyota parts department and get them to confirm the part number and get a price.

I don't know how it is for anyone else but i went to get a part for my lexus...Lexus quite happy sent me to the toyota parts department which is the building behind the lexus garage lol.
