  1. The 92 model needs 10 or 11 caps. Where the first "Ebay caps" from a no-name brand? Here is something from the ECU/Capacitor mega-thread: ...make sure you use 105C rated low ESR caps from the 4 reputable Japanese capacitor companies Rubycon, Nippon Chemi-con, Panasonic & Nichicon it is CRITICAL that the replacement caps be low ESR type and from one of the brands listed above - don't cheap out on your vital ECU! 1990-92 LS400 needs 10 or 11 caps as follows: Qty. 3 of 10μF - 50v Qty. 2 of 15μF - 35v Qty. 3 of 47μF - 63v Qty. 2 of 100μF - 10v Qty. 1 of 220μF - 16v
  2. Causes for discoloration on electrochromic mirrors.... When the wrong type of cleaning products are used on a mirror, it can cause discoloration. It is generally a bad idea to use products that are not designed for glass and mirrors on these items, because if the cleaner happens to get to the back of the mirror, it can damage the backing and lead to some of the spotting you see. Chemical Reactions It is possible that some brown spots on mirrors are due to a chemical reaction that occurs over time when chemical components of the backing and the glass undergo prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight. In other words, the mirror backing may become discolored and cause the spots. A common cause of this can be the adhesive used to hold the backing to the mirror.
  3. Removing the heater core is not that difficult because you do not need to remove the dash.....just pull the core off the heater housing: LS 400 Disconnect the negative battery cable. Wait 90 seconds before doing any further work while the airbag system de-energizes. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Drain the cooling system into a clean container for reuse. Remove or disconnect the following: - Undercover and the No. 1 safety pad-to-instrument panel screws and the panel at the driver-s side - No. 2 heater-to-register duct - Heater core-to-heater housing screw and clamp - Heater hoses from the heater core - Heater core from the heater housing - Discard the O-rings Fig. Exploded view of the instrument panel-LS 400 Fig. Exploded view of the heater core, heater/air conditioning housing and related components-LS 400 More MODELS: http://www.autozone.com/autozone/repairguides/Lexus-Car-ES-IS-LS-1998-06/Heater-Core/Removal-Installation/_/P-0996b43f803790e1
