Wanted WTB LX450 wood trim - dash

[Locked450]

Location

United States

Looking for the following factory wood dash trim: The piece the surrounds the diff lock, bridges the stearing column and wraps around the ignition. The piece than surrounds the mirror switch, and the one that goes around the radio.
PM me if you have any of these.

Thank you - Steve

I'd have to double-check to be sure, but I'm pretty sure the LX 450 did not have wood trim on the dash in the location you specify...in fact, I don't think there's any wood trim on any part of the dash.

Just the doors and tranny cover.

Interesting...

Mine has wood trim around the mirror control (sun baked), around the radio (broken), and around the climate control system (intact).
There are signs that the trim that surrounds the diff lock and goes over the steering column was there at one time.
The fellow I purchased the LX from stated that the PO explained that it fell off one day and he never bothered to re-adhere it. Trim was no longer to be found (probably buried in a garage somewhere)
The trim matches the trim on the doors perfectly.

It does appear that this was the extent of the trim on the dash, as opposed to the 40th versions that had 'wood' trim all over the dash.

If anyone can help or advise, I appreciate it.

Thank you - Steve

If you have "wood" trim that's sunbaked, then I'd wager that it's not OEM Lexus wood trim. The OEM trim does not fade...or at least, I've never heard of any of it fading...ever...

Also, I just checked my LX 450 and there's no wood trim on the dash where you describe yours being.

I checked the wife's LX 450 and...well...it ain't there either.

I think what might be on yours if either aftermarket wood trim or OEM Land Cruiser trim.


The only reason I'm pointing this out is that you asked for factory wood trim...and I honestly I don't think what you asked for exists.

Took a closer look and added photos

Sorry this took so long. Been busy, had a laptop failure, and you name it.
It is actually the plastic 'wood grain' that matches the trim in the doors. Here are photos of my dash.

Thank you - Steve

I'm 99% sure that's aftermarket...but...you could always check with Lexus.

Thank you for the help.

NorCalDoug, thank you for your help. I found more dash pics of LX450s and not one of them had 'wood' on the dash. So while it matches the factory consol and door trim, it appears that in fact it is aftermarket.
The more research and thought I put in the more likely I will remove the rest of it off the dash.
Again thank you and sorry for the slow response.
