I Austin

Should I wait or replace it at 68k miles ? Dealership wants to charge $230-270 with parts and labor (90 minutes), I called three dealerships in Southern Ca and got 3 different prices ranging from $25, 35 and 55; probably just had it done outside dealership. Part numbers are listed below, just in case you are a DIY person. 90080-91212 $9.83 (drives power steerting pump) 90080-91239 $15.14 (drives from crankshaft to alternator + A/C) tks.. a.c.

My wife's 04 RX330 passenger side rear quarter panel window molding also GONE last week, at 1st I thought someone jacked it but later found out it is probably flew away while driving; what a defect from Lexus. Called couple of junk yard places and checked ebay with absoluetely no luck, finally called total of 3 Lexus dealerships in Southern California and purchased a complete set with no choice; because it only sold as a complete assembly set; what a rip off. For those who interested in replacing it anyway, the part no. is 62710-48170 ranging from $150-185 depending on which dealership you are calling; surprisingly they all have this part in stock, must be a highly demand popular item. Installation is about $50 outside the dealership, ***highly recommended***. I was trying to do-it-myself and ended up broke the original glass and made a mess every where. I had to call professional help to finish the job, what a shame.. it's easier than it looks and requires special window adhesive.. have fun and good luck with this project... a.c.
