Late to this, thanks for the write up.

Hi, regarding aerial. I did mine x2 with aftermarket, no good. Bought the OEM and it's been fine since.

Hi saw that. I've dropped them an email.

Hi all,

Has anybody managed to get this? If so which dealer?

Lexus Leeds, where parts are through the Toyota desk, looked at me blank.

Cheers

Paul

Back to re-painting the roof, it's a simple fix. It always tickles me that so many owners are so attached to their original paint and lacquer. If you use a car for its intended purpose, it will pick up stone chips and road salt and the odd scratch here and there. Any decent body-shop should be able to match the colour and restore the affected panel to good order. 

Hi Neil, the paint shop i have  used wouldn't paint them without removing them. The masking would be too much and wouldn't guarantee the chance of overspray. This is where mt concern comes from.

Let them practice on his first? At the moment mine doesn't leak and is relatively noise free, a bit cagey with regards to loosing that.

mine has the same in about three places on the roof panels. It was repainted under warranty about 8 years ago but is back now. 

Looking to get it painted, but the bloke I go to won't take it on, too close to the  seals. Thinking of asking Lexus Leeds to remove the panels to get them painted. Lexus Leeds have a body shop, will have to get telephoning, but car is away now for winter.

mine went on my sc430 just after purchase, the after market one lasted about a month. I ended up going oem (ouch). Hope you have better luck.

Mine was in Tuesday 18th for the same, also in silver. Same tester, must be getting used to them by now.

When I went to collect it was parked up outside the front doors, it looked superb in the sunlight. I failed and didn't take a photo.

I'd be up for a meet in the north, i'm East leeds based

All,

Don't know if it will solve the OP but I had a more modern folding key made from one of the 3 button type keys posted above. They were very helpful and professional. Worth a call?

FU2 is currently on a 1965 Blue Rolls Royce.

Had mine done at Lexus Leeds, no problems whatsoever. Done a few miles, no rattles and had a good study, no marks. Had MOT and small service done at the same time. Had it for a full day and a half. CT as a courtesy car, driving it is like been in a different make of car, never mind model. They forgot a few things after making the SC.

@Crizco-okwhich screen are you using?

Got mine, then rang Lexus Leeds. Big job, they will need it for the full day and only have one technician trained to do it.

That is a great colour combination, at 2009 one of the last. I've matched that mpg, once. Now with town and spirited driving more like 25.

That rear view of our cars is just one of the best designs ever.

I've been in contact previousley with Grom, there are a couple of variations. They will send pictures to ensure the correct cable.

The Yatour looks very similar to the Grom, even uses the same cable nomenclature.

Thanks Neil, for taking the time to post.I like the standrad look, but, may delete the orange reflectors and take it an inch or so lower on Meisters.

Your aerial, use a Lexus one, I tried two cheap ones before, had no problems since.

The leaks in to the boot, the leaing corner rubber nearest the rear screen has a whole in, these leads to a tube, thts drains. chech for the tube being connected, check if it is blocked.

I took my headlights out to change all the bulbs. Bumper off i'm afraid.

You made a good decision by walking away. Buy a good standard one, then you can pick yopur own mods.

@Crizco-ok that's great, thanks.

The only bit I'm struggling with is the remote for the channel selection.

Did you buy the Naviks direct from the US?

That sounds great, so video out on the sat nav screen? and sound to an FM channel. Which channel do you use, never had much luck with those senders.

Big ask, could you do a quick connections / wiring  drawing?

Thanks again for taking the time to type up.

Hi,

Clifford alarms have seperate channel operation and relays available. A good alarm supplier should be able to sort. I checked but the price put it out of range purely for a gimick.

Carpet clips part No 08210-00820, its a Toyota part so available all over

Hi, had this problem with mine. It is the mast that will be the problem. Don't bother with any of the aftermarket ones, i tried two, neither of which worked correctly. The Lexus one worked perfectly.

Some good instructions here. If you follow them they work. 

A bit scary when it's all in bits
