This is the underside of my 2006's fuse cover. On the right center you can see a 7.5 fuse that states wip-s and mine is missing.

What is this? Anybody know?

Maybe something to do with AHC as this vehicle doesnt have it.

In the manual that slot isn't even labeled, wiring book or fsm that I could find. My cover is the same as yours. Looks like no one else knows either. 7.5 isn't big enough for wipers or wiper washer was my first thought, so who knows.
 
So after some googling, I believe it would have been for the automatic rain sensing wiper system (part of the intelligent "Driver Support System"). Maybe something only available on Lexus LX470? It seems on later Lexus that's what it's for.

If you look at the 2005 TLC on this website it says "No Circuit" next to WIP-S.

I wonder how pricey it is to add the headlamp washer to the NA TLC?

The rear wiper motor is 15A and rear washer motor is also 15A.
The front wiper motor is 25A and front washer motor is 15 A. At least for the 2005 TLC.
