I was told that they do but you might wanna double check with who you buying from. Maybe meet up with a sedan owner locally and interchange.
Already on the way O.o

Got dash cover. Surprised at how nice it is! Nice stitching, black suede looks great.




Signal lights are cheap, but I paid for cheap, they'll do the job though.

just ordered some clarion components for the front and 3 way speakers for the rear. also found out that bazooka makes a replacement 6.5 for the factory sub, so that's on order as well. Nothing too crazy but should be just a little more pleasant on the ears.

also found 2 used roof visors and 1 bnib, working out the details through email on pricing.

I also heard the rear speakers were a nightmare, especially the lil woofer in the back, so I called a highly reputable mobile install service. I don't want to break anything on this car so making someone else liable. Ha ha. they told me 6.5 would work all the way around. So, 6.5 is what they're gonna do.

I'm waiting to put everything on at once so i didn't even check. car is getting timing belt, water pump. this was one of the very first parts I ordered when I just got my car. p.a.r.t.s.t.r.a.i.n said it was for the car, so I assumed it was. very frustrating when you are new to a car and EVERY part you find says "fits sportcross"... WHEN THEY DON'T!!!

"Spyder Fog Light
2004 Lexus IS300 Sportcross 6 Cyl 3.0L"


after digging around, the sportcross fogs are different and I have the hassle of returning this and now the mission of finding some for my actual sportcross....sigh
