They don't have the same part number as the regular GS pads. I remember asking service advisor if cheaper pads I saw on Sewell (RIP) was correct, and he said they wouldn't work on my F-sport because they were for regular GS. He gave me the part number for the F-sport ones, so I assume they are different in size.

I've noticed they only squeal for the first 2 stops in the morning, quiet after that.
Did you happen to use the akebono backing plate or did you put the stock lexus one on the back of the akebonos? I used the akebono plate but have been considering pulling them for the OEM Lexus one as it's textured and is only a 1/2 plate; I've been guessing that may control the squeal...
