  1. Hi Actually need to feed the camera wire through. I've sorted out the power for the camera.
  2. Hi. I'm attempting to install aftermarket 360 camera set on my 2004 LS430. Does anybody have any idea how I can fish a wire from the cabin to the engine bay? Thanks
  3. I'm thinking of manually adjusting the steering position to suit my driving. I may purchase the motor when something comes up within my budget. I managed to source a brand new OEM reverse camera for around £40 all in from the States. A friend of mine was coming over from Floria so I got him to bring it over. You can get great deals on eBay USA. After haggling I managed to get it for a bargain. £2800.
  4. Actually you do have a point. I've managed to source one for £60. Will be getting it. Some idiot nicked my antenna. Now I'll have to hunt for an antenna.
  5. Great! Didn't know I could move the steering manually. Actually, I don't use it so fixing in a comfortable position and leaving it there would be better for me. The camera at £80 seems quite expensive. Am I able to install an aftermarket one in place of the original one without cutting wires etc.?
  6. So I went ahead and purchased the car. The previous owner had it for a year and a half and performed some maintenance. 3 previous owners. The book only had 1 Lexus stamp. However, after having registered the car on 'My Lexus' portal, I found that it has Lexus service history till 98k. So that's cool. Cam belt was done at 77k. Unfortunately, the tilt motor and the reverse camera don't work. Was wondering if there is a DIY fix for this.
  7. Not so fussed about the steering wheel to be honest.
  8. I've seen a 2004 LS430 with 104k on it. Can belt changed at 77k. 2 keys and 4 owners will mostly private service history. Doesn't have the wood on the steering wheel. Not sure why or if it was changed. Is £3500 okay for it? Your valuable views will be welcome. Failed on previous MOT which states the following reason for the failure: Engine MIL inoperative or indicates a malfunction (8.2.1.2 (h)) Electronic stability control warning lamp indicates a fault (7.12 (e)) Advice would be appreciated. Thanks
  9. I've seen a 2005 LS430 with 95k on it. 2 owners and according to the MOT History it's only been driven a few thousand miles in the past few years. would £3500 be an okay price for it? Bodywork ain't that good.
  10. I'm thinking of keeping it long term so struts will come on if things fail. Thanks
  11. Perhaps I'll probably change the radiator annually. They don't seem to be too expensive on eBay. Even a cheap Chinese one should last a year or more.
  12. So this means that even the 2004 had the leak issue...?
  13. I regrettably sold it. It was an amazing car and just what I wanted. Had to get it over from Ireland. Now, in the mood to get back to the Lexus. My Toyota Auris isn't giving me my satisfaction..
  14. Hello, I'm thinking of getting an LS30 (2004) with around 150k miles on it for £4000. Worth it? I've heard that the air shocks die and the car can be worth scrap because they're so expensive to replace. Also, do the facelift Ls430s have the coolant issue where it leaks into the transmission and messes everything up? What kind of LS430 should I be looking for ideally? I can wait and perhaps even save up dosh to get the one I'm content with. Your advice will be appreciated. Thanks
