Do you have a link for that? Never mind I found it. Thank you so much :)

Hi. Thanks for checking out this post. Does anyone know where I can source these four rubber depressions. See picture. Looks like mine have aged out and it’s causing a lot of creaking and noise. Small parts but big difference. Thanks.

Good thing I changed them out then! Cheers.

I didn’t know the condition of the cooling system, and at 184k miles I wanted to replace the heater Ts anyway. After getting everything apart, it turns out the system was actually in great shape. The old Ts and hoses looked good, and the coolant appeared fairly new. I couldn’t find any record of...

Title: Anyone swapped out their factory Mark Levinson door speakers? Worth it? I’ve discovered that at least one of my factory Mark Levinson speakers has given up after 24 years. I’m trying to decide whether to simply repair/replace the bad speaker or take the opportunity to replace all four...

I think it’s fair to say that the cab filter needed to be changed out. Just picked up the vehicle last week. Also did an oil change and part 1 of 3 transmission restoration.

A lick of fresh paint. These two plates were pretty rusted up.

I just picked up a backup camera. I have never been much of a fan of a digital mirror. Is that a good thing?

I thought about sound deadening but I actually don’t mind the road noise. I think there’s something about that which makes the driving experience with these.

As someone who’s just been adopted by the Lexus/Land Cruiser cult (I mean… family) and who’s new to this awesome forum, thanks for having me! Since my LX is currently more bare metal than bare minimum, I figured now’s the time to ask: if you had a blank canvas like this, what upgrades would...

My ole friend ChatGPT seems to think I should give it a go. On your 2002 Lexus LX470, the carpet is actually much easier to replace than most people think. Here’s how it’s installed: It’s one large molded piece that’s shaped to the floor pan from the factory. It’s not glued down across...
