When was the last SC430 made? Does Lexus plan on reintroducing or have they just switched to the I series. Also, was there ever a permanent, non telescoping antennas made for the SC's?? About every other car in the world has a permanent mounted low style antenna.

I took the sharp corner of a razor blade, pryed at the corner and the plastic cover came out very easily and yes it was dirty on the inside. A little Windex and replaced it. There was enough adhesive left on the unit itself to hold it in place very nicely. Now the display is bright and clear.

Also bought new rear Michelins and the cars rear caster alignment will be put to as close to zero degrees as possible. This will reduce tire wearout on the inside tread. Already talked to the garage and they said they can do it if they have enough adjustment to work with. I'll be happy with around a half a degree.

Had best luck on EBAY

How difficult is it to replace the passenger side headlight washer actuator assembly. From the engine compartment it does not look good. From the bottom, not good either. Any suggestions ??

Am searching for a headlight washer assembly for the passenger side front bumper. Anyone have a good Lexus Part site I can try. I need the assembly plus the exterior nozzle and touch up paint for the nozzle front. Any help will be appreciated.

Well, my wife and I got our new Es350 last week. What a beauty. The truffle exterior and charcoal interior. Have 435 miles on it when my wife came home upset and showed me the what looks like a bullet dent in the rear passenger door. She said she heard it but thought a rock had come from the road and hit underneath. I'm kind of saddened also because this was not a rock. It happened on a country road with only woods and a few houses on the right side. 6 inches higher and it would have got the window. Oh well, I've got to find a good Paint and Ding person.

My new 2010 ES350 has the front drivers carpet attached to the bottom carpet with those plastic ties like holds new socks together. I cut them off so I can remove the carpet for cleaning.

We got our Truffle/Mica with a charcoal interior 3 days ago. I drives and handles very well. Our last Lexus was a 2002 LS430 and our 350 is as quiet and comfortable as was the 430 except the 430's ride was smoother.

I went through alot of the archived notes on navigation but I did not come across an answer to my question. What is the latest version disc number for a 2002 model year sc430 that will install and not cause problems ? I think mine is an original because alot of newer streets are not indicated. I just want to install the latest version possible without causing all of the problems I read about in the archives. Thank you

Does anyone know if there are any Lexus gatherings next year in the Carolinas ??

Has anyone ever had an alignment done on the rear wheels so that they are not toed in so much as to wear the inside tread so fast and cause thumping from flat spots.

The glass/plastic display covers on my 2002 clmate control and radio are getting spotty from the inside and am wondering if anyone has ever changed theirs.
