  1. Hello pvtpilotwendell,

    I don't have any of the lexus emblems anymore.(threw them away) but I do have the center caps on the oem wheels. (lexus emblems)  if you still want them let me know, maybe you and i can exchange parts.  reply back to meeko031@hotmail.com

    I live in the UK and own a harrier.  It is so strange that I want to remove my harrier badges to get Lexus ones.  In the UK , Harrier is thought of a "cheaper" car.

    Do you still have the RX300 emblems as I have been looking for these in the uk.

    Also, your wheel caps, are they Toyota or lexus,as mine are Toyota and I want to change them to Lexus ones?.

    It is a shame that I did not read your post earlier because I have the Eagle emblem on mine and I want to change it for a Lexus one.  I could of sent that to you.

    I am also a member on the UK lexus forum.

  2. hey, you replaced your factory blue screen! did you relocate it? if not how do you know what your climate settings are??
    You control it with your OEM radio, that's why it is next to impossible replacing the factory radio.

    You have to replace the OEM screen if you want to display videos or your dvds.  I asked the same question before I replaced it.

    It may work(not really sure, didn't try it) but that black line towards the bottom of the screen will be visible.

    I still have the factory screen.. just relocated it in the glove box. My original plan was to mount it flush on the center console, but it was more difficult than I thought.

    so for now it's inside the glove box

  3. Harrier has "3.0 Four" on the trunk: 3.0L and Four wheel drive.

    Anyone has a DIY for changing emblems on the trunk door?

    I was thinking adding those emblems but I think it will be too cluttered. Too much things on the back, just want to keep it minimal...I don't want it to look like a billboard :D (just my opinion) ;)

    the  chrome/silver is $32 and the gold one is $65

    pvtpilotwendell,

    I'm glad you found one, and, reasonable price too.

    I wonder if they also sell the "AWD" emblem. You know, to distinguish the AWD from the FWD.

    What's the store's name by the way.

    The stores name is "My Auto Fashion" they are based in Torrance CA. I don't know if this store sells the "AWD" emblem, might have to look for that somewhere else. The url is http://www.myautofashion.com

    click on "auto fashion for lexus"

    You can also replace the front emblem, just pop the hood and there are two smalll screws in the back.

  6. What's up all - I just got a used RX330 and wanted to get your opinion on the price.

    2004, RX330

    13,000 miles

    Performance Package (HID, 18" Rims, Air Suspension, etc.)

    Navigation

    for...$34,600 --> $37,700 OTD.

    I've checked KBB, Edmunds, and other ads and this seems to be a very good price. But I am just a skeptic cuz it was a bit too easy to get the dealer to give it to me at this price. What do ya'll think?

    TIA.

    What are you talking about "used" 13k... that's brand new :D

    I bought mine new in '00, I now have 120K+ miles and still running strong. You got a good deal

  7. I know I am in the wrong forum, but sorry to shoot you down again bro, those rims are just too much!!! The first picture looks like a ninja star and the second one looks like something a gladiator would use on his battle! I would rather use the stock rims

    As far as spending $3000-$5000 dollars is a bit steep, but you could tell the difference in the quality of the rim. Because it's shiny and big does not necessarily mean quality.

  8. what's up guys...i'm also installing an amp and sub to my 99 rx...everything's wired pretty great...can't see anything...anyway...i'm stuck with one problem...where the hell do i ground this amp...none of the body parts by the trunk would work...hey ski...when you had yours installed...did they connect it straight to the battery?...i need help on this one cuz i don't wanna wire it all the way to the battery...lemme know asap...thanx...

    I connected mine using the power antenna!

  9. We all know that the headunit is difficult to replace because it powers all the ac, heat, and radio, but theOEM radio is fine, all you have to do is change the factory speakers, amp, and sub.

    Just work with what the RX300 came with and you will be fine. Just need to replace all of the OEM audio parts. I was able to remove the OEM radio screen and replaced it with

    a regular screen to watch dvds with no alterations on the dashboard. The price will vary depending on the brand of equipment you buy and where you buy it. :geek:

    total cost $2000

    2alpine 7" monitors

    1alpine TV tuner

    2 fosgate amps and 1 10"sub(all from ebay)

    4 jbl door speakers

    1 blaupunkt dvd player(only $100)

  10. hello- I am considering taking off the " es300" and " lexus" emblems and simply leaving the lexus symbol on the back of the car. Does anyone know how to do this? Are the emblems glued on or bolted in? Does ayone have any experience removing these from an es300 ( mine is '95)

    PM LOC/CL member lexusk8. He did this exact mod on his 01 ES last spring. He even created a thread that has pictures. (I can't remember if it is here or on CL).

    There are not bolts or pins on the ES and LEXUS emblems, just adhesive.

    you need a blow dryer/heat gun, monofilament, 3M adhesive remover, 3m ultra fine rubbing compound, a nice wax and of course some soft cloths.

    steviej

    my '98 lid only has the hole for the "L".

    Im also trying to take off the lexus emblem on my truck, but there are three holes behind the "L" emblem.. the other emblems were just glued on. If you decide to take off the other emblems, you can use a blow dryer to remove the glue with ease! good luck
