  1. Are you just looking in the engine bay ? There are two other fuse boxes, in each of the kick panels, low down on the driver's and passenger's side, inside the car. The A/C fuse is in the driver's side fuse box.
  2. Which bit Stevie the calipers or the fogs mate Guess I wasn't very specific, was I ? I meant the fogs specifically, they look great, especially if it was just something you made up quickly to fill the gap :D The callipers look nice too. I *really* must sort mine out, I've got all the paint, stickers etc. Only trouble is I don't have a driveway so it's much more of a pain to do, best place is probably the small car park immediately behind my house.
  3. You might know this already, but as well as the fuse box under the bonnet, there's one down by your feet on both the driver's and passenger's side of the car. Worth checking them, as Stav suggests. Sounds weird that all those lights would come on at once.
  4. Also check out this thread and this one about ARBs.
  5. I recently had C-One ARBs fitted to my IS200. They are absolutely awesome ! :D The C-One ARBs come not only with their own bushes, but new brackets for the front too. The new brackets are much stronger than the OEM ones (which look incredibly flimsy by comparison), being made out of thicker steel and being braced as well. The ARBs will make a *very*big difference to your car's handling. Instead of leaning when going around corners, it will be much flatter, making it much more fun and controllable. You can more easily put the power down in a corner because the car is flatter so the weight is distributed a lot more easily. You will feel the difference at quite low speeds, e.g. going round a roundabout.
  6. Yeah, that is very interesting. Looks like part number 81231-50010 will fit the IS300, can't imagine that the IS200 would be different. Just phoned Lexus and list price is £2.77 plus VAT for that part. Wow, cheap !
  7. From the wiring diagrams, it looks to me like it uses the 10A "Radio No. 2" fuse, which is in the driver's side kick panel box.
  8. The tail lights are both operated off a single fuse, in the driver's side box at your feet. The fog lamps are also operated off a single fuse, on the passenger's side (again at your feet).
  9. Have you checked the fuses ? I wonder if you've got water getting into your electrics somewhere ?
  10. It says 204 PS on that brochure, which is about 201 hp :winky:
  11. Yeah when you are sending a message, there's an option "Save a copy of this message in my sent items folder" (or something like that) that you need to select before you send it.
  12. Yeah, this has been on Facebook for a while. Best not to click on any links that you're not sure about, even if they come from friends.
  13. It seems from Jason's successful posting in the "Wanted" section that they soon will be in production :winky:
  14. It's a no-brainer to me, someone here will probably pay more for a de-tangoed/painted set, I'm sure they won't be hard to shift. I've said here before that someone could setup a service doing something like this - send off their standard headlights and receive back a de-tangoed and (optionally) painted set. Which means there could be a quick turnaround :winky:
  15. Very impressive (flat) torque curve ! That price for a cam belt change sounds amazing. Did they not bundle it in with the clutch work they were doing though (sounds like it was done together with that ?) and therefore were able to charge you less ? Bit confused about how your max torque has gone down, and bhp up ? Are these figures at the wheels ? And is that what they were before too ?
  16. Gord came this year, and he didn't have a Lex either ! :D Looking forward to finding out the dates.
  17. Bad luck mate. Don't forget to tell your insurance company. It might not affect your premium, but if you don't tell them, then you have a claim and they happen to find out about the penalty points, it'll be the perfect excuse for them not to pay up.
  18. Have they both failed at exactly the same time ? e.g. did you see via the bulb warning on the dash ? Thinking about it, I had mine both fail within a few weeks of each other. Which I guess is not that unusual given that they'd both be the same age and have the same amount of use, assuming that they were the original bulbs.
