  6. Beautiful car B) 98 - 00 is my favorite also. Although a new one would look nice in the driveway.
  7. Hmmmmmm !!!!! Interesting, Probably a cross promotion or somebody owes a favor??? :o <_<
  8. 1st car - Get him a used camry, Safe, Reliable, Toyota, 4 cyl. easy on gas. insurance, and will hold some value when he decides to upgrade after gaining driving experience. So NO to the s2000.
  9. What do you mean by HIR's? Is that a brand of bulbs? Yeah, I have the fogs set with the parking lights, that way I don’t have to switch them on and off independently all the time. However, you might want to try to set them independently since you have DRL's, they would look nice with those too. But that part is easy, it’s only a matter of plugging the wire to the right fuse. You can either tap with to the wipers, or parking lamps. Edit: Not sure if you read my fog light thread, but rewiring the relay isnt enough, you have to run an independent wire from the fog light switch in the lighting stalk. (blue and red wire). ← SK, Congrats on the new LS. Beautiful car and I am sure it will be like new or better when you are done with it.
  10. News story or not, there have been countless times that drivers in other cars using cellphones almost hit me! They were either drifting over into my lane on parkways or went thru full stop signs or traffic signals. Their concentration while driving was definitely compromised. It just so happens I had a narrow escape yesterday! Everybody is not as adept as you when it comes to using a cellphone while driving. <_< ← Nor are people as adept at eating, drinking, talking, smoking, or changing radio stations as me either. You don't see people going after those things like they go after cell phones though, even though its been proven they distract as much or more than cell phones. Cell phones are cool to go after. You also can't rely on your own experiences, being such a fervent hater of cell phone use when driving don't you think you might be a little bit predisposed to look for people with cell phones on the road and concentrate on what they're doing just a little bit more? I see no evidence of objectivity in your arguments, just a simple theme backed up by sensationalist news articles. If I did that I'd never get anywhere. Plus, if everyone pulled off the road and clogged the shoulders and parking lots to make calls you'd have an even more unstable traffic situation than we already do. Its like the stupid Lexus GPS lockout, most of the time you're in way more danger pulling off the road than you would be just putting the address in while you're moving. Cell phones are the same way. Just remember. .1% of accidents can be traced directly to cell phones. Even if ALL accidents that are attributed to driver distraction were caused by cell phones, you'd still only be talking about 1%. 60% of accidents are caused by driver error. Which is the bigger issue? The fact that we talk on phones, or the fact that we don't know how to drive? Allowing the government to ban cell phone use in cars, aside from being a civil liberty issue, is simply allowing the government to do what they always do, come up with a half assed bandaid fix for a problem they don't have the courage to confront. Gets us nowhere. ← Most cell calls made on the road are not important nor are they an emergency just a waste of concentration. People shouldn't conduct business while driving either. If you absolutley have to make that call [ or take that call ] it should be important enough to pull over and give 100% of your attention to the other party out of safety and respect for yourself and others.
  11. Thanx, The more I look at them the more I like them. I really didn't like the stock tips besides the finish was shot . Eventually I will replace with a catback.
  12. Excellent job AAA+++ Please do the tutorial. ;) B)

My .02 cents
  14. Use a towel or chamois so you don't scratch the chrome on the ring nut.
  15. It is worth $300.00 even if it doesn't run.It sounds like it will be a project car if you have the time and $ go for it. Take the vin# and have a lexus dealer run it for you to see when the last time it was serviced at a dealer and try to dig up any other maintenance records. Look it over carefully [ oil leaks, struts, suspension etc...] the little stuff you can probably do yourself and save $. Have a reputable mechanic look it over first. Good Luck.
  16. Yes, Please stay around . I had no intention of driving you away. I was just mentioning the rules of the board. Welcome and look forward to your future posts. :D ;)
  17. IMHO the LS looks best when left perfectly stock and kept spotless. My .02 cents.
  18. Actually, I think leather costs more than wood. Wood just seems more expensive. ← I love the looks of wood and the wear of leather, So wood for show and leather for go.
  19. Wrong forum to post " FOR SALE " and you are supposed to have 20 or more contributing posts to sell. Unless you are a gold member.

  21. Have the roof returned to stock and rebadge. Then you can park it in my driveway.
  22. This bra question has been gone over on several topics. I have a vinyl bra that I purchased when I bought the car. I am now considering a clear bra for everyday use and use the vinyl bra for extra protection when my travels demand xtra protection.
  23. Originally a trunk mount, The 6 disc can be mounted either vertical or horizontal in the same place as the old 12 disc. The 6 disc is smaller and takes up less room. I don't have a pic of one installed in a sc but here is the changer.
  24. Thanx, Will ship ASAP ← Check your email.
