Thanks again! Now I see it.. I located the elbow at the drivers side hood hinge. Is there a trick to popping the cowling off to get to the back of the washer nozzles and check valves?

Thank you for posting this info! I was able to clear the clogged windshield nozzle but more recently noticed a puddle of windshield washer fluid on my garage floor in front of the driver side from tire so, I suspect I may still have a bad check valve somewhere.. Or, this is stemming from the...

Hello, My passenger side washer nozzle is not producing any flow and I suspect that the check valve has gone bad from the research I've been able to do on the site but, I cannot seem to locate the valve. Can anyone who knows of this issue provide me with the location of the check valve...

So, I have located a used OEM at a reasonable price however there are very slight signs of watermarks on the interior of the lens, but is not cracked. I'm thinking to be on the safe side that I'll remove and reseal using the method UT08LX describes above. Should I assume that if it's OEM that...

I had not considered just replacing the outer lens. So the oven must loosen the adhesive to remove the broken lens,, do the aftermarket lenses come with adhesive. I'm starting to think about going this route vs full replacement. Many thanks for sharing..

Thank you for the replies, gentlemen. OEM it is.. I'm guessing I can re-use my existing bulbs since they are not damaged? Thanks again for passing on your knowledge and experience!

Hello, the passenger side headlamp on my 2015 LX570 suffered some parking lot damage and nearly the entire plastic/polycarbonate lense cover was broken out. The bulbs are intact and I don't believe that any other damage occurred to the assembly. I've searched the forum and wasn't able to find...

Jump on it. Seems like a blue book price which undervalues these trucks. I have a 2001 that came from the Bay Area with 84k miles and you could eat off every surface of undercarriage. Zero rust. Even after one light winter in DC, not any rust but glad to have gotten down to TX nonetheless. Good...

Thank you, gentlemen. I will pull the 3rd tail light as well. Def standing water sitting right below jack on the metal mounting bracket so perhaps two leaks.. will post back what I find. I was able to search a thread on removing interior panels for a subwoofer install but did not show removal...

Hello, During heavy rain and car washes, water is getting past the one-way cabin ventilation and pressure vents. It is wet in the jack/tools compartment so minimally the drivers side vent needs attention and, there is water sitting along the rear edge of the cargo area carpet. How is this best...

Lost one of my center hub caps last weekend and I have searched eBay and parts dealers and cannot find 5 lug chrome with gold Toyota emblem. Anyone know who may have these in stock? Thank you, Jerry

Reporting back on install of Pioneer AVH 4200 in '01 LC.. To LEX and others who provided knowledge and experience... Installer adjusted unit outward with a couple of washers behind mounting screws to allow motorized screen to flip up and out. All good. Thanks much.

Here's a couple of pics (the best that I could do) of the upper right and lower right corners. It's tighter at the top. I will try to loosen and adjust as noted. Thanks much, JMC

I will try to take a pic that shows the as-is install. It's a Pioneer unit (AVH 4200-NEX) which, according to my installer does not require an installation mounting kit so I assume it just slid into the slot where the factory unit came out of but not sure what holds it in place. It should just...

Hello, I posted separately but trying again here since this thread has provided a lot of great info.. I have just had a new double DIN head unit installed in my 01 LC and its the type that the touch screen flips up to access CD/DVD port but the fit is too close at the top edge to allow the...
