  1. the radio is either a complete replacement or nothing

    the check can be done anywhere it depends where you take it.

    toyota supra parts fit depending on what

    the rest needs to be checked by a tech with an estimate upon seeing the vehicle

    What is this check called? I would just go in and say...?

    Also, I had the factory head unit paired to a RF modulated disk changer.

    My 10'' factory pioneer sub was messed up so I got a 12''. How can I use this

    12''?

    Thanks.

  2. Problems/Questions:

    (1) Using factory Lexus (Pioneer) head unit and after market amp or original amp

    How can I use an aftermarket amp with the factory head unit wired to a disk changer? I do not want to cut wiring either. I want to do this because I am currently using an aftermarket amp hooked up to an Alpine CD player and I cannot

    utilize the factory Lexus speakers.

    (2) Car repairs

    How can I get a full inspection on everything on the car. Examples: blower, sensors, braking system, fluids, transmission, engine, allignment, electronics...... everything (I cannot name everything because I do not know the names) Basicly, all of the nitty gritty things. Components that 20 point inspection would not check. Also, could I take my car to a Toyota place? Would it be cheaper? Could I request Toyota parts if they fit?

    (3) Cost

    How much will all of this cost? (The above and below)

    (4) Car description

    1994 GS300

    Sometimes my car will roll back in drive if on a slant!

    E-Brake catches whatever its supposed to hit to slow the car down

    while driving and sometimes the E-Brake light will go on and off...I can feel

    the car slow down. Sometimes I would give the vehicle alittle gas and it

    will not do anything then kick forward. I'm guessing the e-brake is getting stuck

    and causing friction. The taillight sensor light thing is indicating a light is out, but

    it is still working. The light will probably go out soon though.

    A fog light went out too.

    One window in the back fell off track the other back window has a broken regulator.

    I do not care about the windows though. What I do care about though is that the ABS plastic on the door covering the window opening (D shape), broke off partly and the rubber seal is hanging out. Also to make things worse, the rubber from the bottom of the window that runs into the door panel itself is hanging out. It has come out with the window one day.

    I really really need everyone's help. I am almost through with this vehicle if I cannot do anything to it.

  3. The emergency brake light comes on and off. When I'm driving I can feel the car suddenly slow down sometimes. The emergency brake is coming into contact with whatever it is supposed to come in contact with while I'm driving. Someone told me that the E-brake is built into the calipers(?) or something.

    How do I fix this?

    When I apply the regular brakes the back ones squeal, get heated, and start to smell. I have replaced the back brakes, but I know it has something to do with the emergency brake messing things up.

    Sometimes I open my window and drive slow to listen and I can hear something that sounds like plastic or that sound when you slowly apply the e-brake.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in Advance.

  4. My friend slammed by back door one time and I heard a noise from the inside of the door. That window just slides down by itself and will not stay up unless I shove something in there. I have 94 GS300. I opened the door and some white plastic thing was broken. How do I fix this?

    This plastic thing, I believe held up a rod that kept the window up.

  5. You just confused the hell out of me :wacko:

    I put an alpine cd player in in place of the lexus factory(pioneer)....I removed the changer because it got screwed up. That is why Im using the alpine. The sub will be powered by my aftermarket amp. I just want a way to hookup the door speakers now. The doorspeakers don't have to be wired to the aftermarket amp. I just want to know how to do it because I have to bypass the factory amp or is there a way to use the factory amp for the door speakers? I could use my aftermarket amp as well because it has 4 channels.

    As soon as I disconnect the Lexus factory unit from the big wire, which has doorspeaker wires and amp wires in it, I can't use the door speakers which makes sense. I tried to tap into those and I tried all of them, but for some reason none of the door speakers output sound.

    Another question, my amp requires you to plug in the remote wire. Could the remote wire be plugged into the Lexus factory(pioneer) unit? If so, how?

    And yes, you are right about my not knowing how to do this.

    Alittle less confusing this time please :)

  6. I have a 94 GS300 and I added aftermarket sub,amp,cd player.....I tried many times to tap into the wires so I could utilize my existing door speakers with my aftermarket amp,sub and cd player.

    What can I do? I've tried every wire I saw in that Lexus connector plug, but still nothing. Am I just going to have to rewire all the door speakers to the cd player?

    Thanks.

  7. I did install the aftermarket cd player, but I need to wire the factory speakers to my cd player. As a temporary solution I have a 6.5 running to my cd player :) I found out that the factory speaker wiring for the LF and LR speakers runs under that little plastic door thing(L shaped door step). It has like 3 or 4 plastic rivets and will pop off. The same thing is on the right side also. The ones on the right control the RF and RR speakers. I could just wire tap these and run them to my cd player, but I don't know which ones are for the speaker or I could remove the door panels and take out the existing wires and run new lines to my cd player. Anybody have an easier solution or know which wires are the speakers?

    Thanks.

  8. Don't know where to find one, but there are alternatives.

    Go to radioshack and buy wire taps and the flat pins with it.

    You can tap into the existing wires and hook them up to your cd player or whatever.

    Be sure to unplug the wires then to tap them or else you can overload the wires.(Running both at the same time will do this.) I hope that is what you meant by "Stereo Kit". If you meant the stereo dash kit then go to a hardware store. Get some ABS plastic,trace,cut, and apply.

  9. I have a 94 GS300 and I am hooking up an aftermarket cd player in it. I've tapped into the factory harness to get power and hooked up the antenna. My only problem now is I can't find any wires that'll hookup my factory speakers to my cd player. I've tried to tap into everything. I found a factory amp in the trunk that the same wires ran through. The same plugs that ran through the factory pioneer head unit run through the amp. If you look there will be 2 plugs with many wires in them. One white and one blue. The blue, when plugged in, carried sound to the factory head unit when I had it plugged in, but I tried to tap into every wire that the blue plug had and still nothing. Anybody know what to do??
