  1. Thank you cduluk, you are the man! It worked, as always.
  2. That box between the front seats of my rx400h, has a blocked door...How can I dismantle it please ?? I'd like to take the merit for non smoking....
  3. Thank you so much. This has been very useful. Regards.
  4. Thank you all.
  5. Your lighter outlet is only good to 10Amp at 12Volt or 120Watts. At 120Volts AC you only have 1Amp of capability from the car. (Power: watts = volts x amps) Any decent drill or vacuum will require more power than that... maybe a 1Amp dremmele tool or a dust buster car vac but thats about it. DC to AC inverters cannot manufacture power only convert it from one form to another... sorry. BTW, if you do plan to run AC appliances from you car with an inverter, be aware that you will need to leave the car in READY state so the engine can fire when needed (ventilation is key here :chairshot: ). If you run anything off of the car when the ignition is in ACC or ON, then you are only using the tiny 12V battery and that will last about 20 min before its dead. ********************************************** Thank you so much. You made this perfectly clear for me. But tell me... what if instead of using the lighter outlet, I connect the DC Inverter directly to the car battery ? would it be the same problem please ??? The problem would be the same... that will not change the physics of it, just bypasses the 10A fuse. Am I stupid... sorry but I was reading some spec details and saw that they mention a 110 volts outlet plug in the back of the car... Could'nt I use that to plug any vacuum cleaner or else ?

  7. Hi Friends, Since I have no access to electricity in my garage, I would buy an AC / DC power inverter to plug in my RX400 H cigar lighter and my vacuum cleaner or electric drill to the other end. (I hope I am clear enough, English is not my mother tongue ...) How powerful such a converter from 12 V to 110V or 220 V, can I use without danger please? I saw some converters that go up to 2000 watts but I'm not sure I can use it safely. ?? Thank you.
  8. I'm afraid you have been confusing 350 - 400 - and 450 or alternatively confusing water with tequila, or maybe both.. lol.. ;-))
  9. The listing says it is a 2006 Lexus RX400h. I am not sure about the manufacture date but I can certainly get that information from the dealership. It is a certified Lexus RX400h and it has Navigation, rear view camera, Mark Levinson, Premium wheels, etc. The price is just under $30,000 :) After listening to everyone's advice we also started looking at the RX350s. We certainly would like a car that handles well in the snow. Thanks! Ok Sammycat, I live in Switzerland and we know what snow means. The RX400H is just the best SUV I have had so far and I'm 60 years old and have driven all kind of range rovers, jeeps, bmw, subarus, etc..etc.. So just go and get it ! It is true the winter tires type will be important though. cheers.
  10. Cduluk, if it wasn't you posting this, I would think of a joke but since I know you're damn serious when talking Lexus, I will just say this : I'm quite tall 187 cm and it never happened to me. If you were a girl I would insist for a date, you must have long legs... ;-)
  11. I guess this doesn't help you much but for what it's worth, mine are light grey on a light grey interior. They fully protect but altogether so well integrate that I no longer notice they are there.. enjoy!
  12. Hello Cduluk, Thank you for always being readily and kindly available on all issues. I'll let you know if I can't find that handle.. Cheers :)
  13. Hello lucky Lexus owners! Is there a way to have the central console slide back and forward please? How?
  14. Hey Lemon, I ordered them as well and have been using them for the last three weeks. They are just great, I agree. Just a bit expensive to bring to Switzerland via their UK partner.. You mention the central console can be moved? I have never tried it but is there a switch or some lever to slide it backward please? Can you tell me how to do that? :)
  15. Ok, as I promised... To be honest I would say that if I could have the gauges slightly brighter on daylight conditions, it would be perfect. Nonetheless, I found that altogether, the set-up is satisfactory and I intend to keep it permanently. Best to all! :)
