  1. We're holding a group buy in the vendor section for this kit: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...=0entry155639

    This is a 7 piece Blackwood trim kit that is available for the 98-05 GS. It fits ALL models. We have the 2 button center console and 4 button one now available. This is not the sticker type of kit. These are actual panels that stick over the original pieces. Here's a couple more pictures of the kit installed:

  2. I think I am at a point of contention.. I love the wooden trim for the interior. My friend has this and it looks great in a truck. As for the phone I removed it.. I like more space in the center consul.

    My greatest problem is keeping the damn thing as clean as I want it to be. I have the buffer and it works great. Then the pad gets dirty and I have to clean it. I get lazy and keep on using same pad. Not a good idea.. Also my back yard has about 150 feet of dirt driveway and that always blows the dust up.. Blllaaa bllaaaa bllaaa another yapping LEXUS owner.

    Cheers to LEXUS.. I love this car and I do like this little Celica GTC also..

    Anyone has pictures of how the dash kits look installed? I hear that the color is a little off? Please post if possible.

  3. Besides tint, mp3 player, GPS and clear lights what is new and kewl?

    The Delorm GPS set up is great. I lay the laptop down and talk to the computer. It zooms in and out at my commands, while showing me speeds, directions and times. Now from what I hear there is a $40 cable to hook it up to my Dell Axim. Has anyone done this? The little maps on the Axim are kewl, but they are small.

    Any additional neat devices please let me know.

    Just got these installed:

  4. Actually on that car I probably would have installed the outboard lights but left the interior ones stock to avoid the interior lights lighting up the white area, I hadn't thought about that happening.

    Yeah, actually, if you leave the clear bulbs in the middle lights (lights on the trunk) it'll look like you're driving on reverse when your headlights are on. There is a way to prevent this though. You'll have to purchase the 1157 red bulbs like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1157-TITANI...000448509QQrdZ1. Or you can always unplug the inner bulbs so only the outer lenses light up.

  5. nothing reallyt o do with the led's but luxmods are awesome i just put in the outer jdm style lights its awesome completely nicer... u guys are great maybe  a bit more help on the removal of the inner lights im still tyring to figure it out i think i got it

    Hey, thanks for the props!

    Here's the tutorial for the JDM tails: http://www.luxurymods.com/tutorial10.htm

    Here's a little more information on how to remove the inner lighting:

    First, you'll need to remove the ballast. There's 2 screws holding it in place, once you remove the screws, unhook the wiring harness from the ballast. Next, there's 3 bolts holding the inner lights in place. Use a 10mm socket wrench to remove them. You'll need to play around with the light to get it loose, but that's it!

    Hope this helps.

  6. Are these a good fit with no leaky, etc? Any pics with them lit up, as in are they as bright or brighter than stock? Are they complete units?

    The fitment is very good. These aren't OEM lighting, but they're very good quality for aftermaket lighting. We're having them installed this weekend so we'll be posting more pictures up. They're complete units: housing, lenses, bulbs and wiring.

  7. The white ones look pretty nice, but the luxmods site shows that the package doesn't include all of the lights for the interior...
    Lighting package comes with

    4 Door Lights

    1 Dome Light

    2 Driver/Passenger Side Footwell Lights

    1 Ignition Light

    1 Trunk Light

    we would need 2 more dome lights (for the housing with the sunroof controls....3 total) and the 2 lights over each of the rear doors. How much should we add for the rest of the lights?

    Yes, we're currently working on the map lights and also the trunk lights. Right now, those lights are not available from the lighting vendor we go through so we're looking elsewhere for them.

  8. luxmods, do you have a shop in walnut? i live in phillips ranch, so im in the city next door. i was hoping i could check out the lights in person?

    Yes, we have an office here in Walnut. Which year lights are you referring to? We do not stock the 98's but we have the 90-94 in stock and 95-97. If you would like to see the 98 tail lights we can arrange for the car to be here on that particular day. Let us know thanks.

    You can also email sales@luxurymods.com for faster response.

  9. I never reviewed that website before.

    Also who is the administrator?

    I just was unsure of discount since there are three links on the gold page that offer 10%. I know there was a big change in names since LEXUS went after those who used their names.

    For now on I will check mods first.

    Sorry, I meant administrator of these forums. But here's the discount for Gold Members:

    There's a 10% discount on all products that are not already on special. The discount is applied to the product only.

  10. LS400 Guys, Do you know if there is chrome under the grille paint on the first gen LS's. I know there is chrome under my 98 GS3 but that is 2nd Gen. Thanx in advance for info.:cheers:

    The 1st gen grilles are black plastic. There isn't any chrome underneath it. If you like chrome grilles, i suggest you go with the Trenz Polished Billet Grille:

  11. The front end almost looks like a Acura TL because of the headlights/grille.

    I'm not too crazy with Lexus' new designs. For instants, the GS kind of reminds me of the Maxima, but the more I look at it the more it grows on me. Maybe my thought for this one will change also. :P
