Keep stock - but I am old as well! Out of interest, at what age do you bercome "old"?

Sorry can't help you with the garage recommendation but is your avatar picture of you or the last hit and miss mechanic trying to fit oversize wheels to your IS300 :)

Hi guys, Apologies for the late photos, theres not enough time in the weekday and weekend flies by too quick. Here are the snaps I took at the meet, was great meeting you all!

And its smiles all round. Glad you sorted it. Mike.

I think he was called Robert. Goodness he knows his job. A body shop with an oven could not have done it any better. Ed

That is a relief! Electrical problems can take some finding!

Because we all know better than anyone else and we don't want to admit when we've got it wrong.

Many thanks, they're much nearer than Japex.

second that - she gorgeous!

Oh please don't, she looks beautiful, same colour scheme as mine. I am old though. Mike.

Does the LS also have the red immobiliser light to the right of the steering wheel? I know the GS does, when you insert the key you have, if the light goes out instantly = master transponder (you can program away with this) if the light stays of for just a about 1 second, it is the valet transponder, no amount of door locking pedal dancing will work to program in a spare. I have bought a spare fob on fleabay and managed to program it in, plenty of guides around to tell you how to do it.

Hello and welcome to the LOC. If you have the original master key which also opens the glovebox and boot then you should be able to program additional slave/valet keys and have the key blade cut to match the master. There are several DIY reprogramming methods on the internet.

I much prefer 400 aesthetics to be honest and they have that granite like impregnability. Yup, confirmed my gut feeling. No school like the old school

I`m probably biased but the 430 seems to suffer with more faults? 430 cabin looks superb and shape looks more modern but the suspension and gearbox problems fill me with trepidation Simon

You will have to take the whole unit out of the dash, take it inside and open it up :) It's not the bulbs that fail (usually) I have attached a pdf file which gives you step by step instructions with pictures Lexus_LS400_MK3_Stereo_Back_Light_Fix_(illustrated).pdf
