Default What did you do to your ES 300 today?

Well, here is what I did. Replaced lcd in radio, cleaned throttle valve and IACV, and installed new cabin air filters. All done using forum DIY from members. I've purchased 8v 60ma leds to replace dead radio button lites as my next project. I'll update how that project goes.

Thanks to all!

Tomorrow going to be replacing my motor mounts, adding resistors to my headlight, and possibly replace a cv axle. Depends how bad it is.

I also installed HIDs into my fogs today. PITA because there isn't much room. Hope you got slim ballasts. It makes it a lot easier unless you just take off the entire front bumper.

I just bought mine a few days ago, and it was in pitiful shape. So I took off all the garbage put on by the previous owner, and washed it. I also got all new tires and brakes, because it needed 'em, BAD.

I filled my tank at $1.25 per litre(canadian)! Gas prices are out of control. I also did some doughnuts with in the snow... to make me feel a lil better after I filled up on about 70 bucks.
