Hi all,

I keep finding little bits of foam (roughly 2cm in length) that I'm pretty sure keep blowing out of the aircon - any idea where it is coming from and/or what needs replacing? its a 2006 is350.

i keep experiencing on my car, which is about 10 years older than yours (97 sc300.) i just figured it was getting old...

It's just the foam that seals all the plastic air con plastic nothing to worrie about
if ye want to stop it take off all the pipes and clear them out and wipe off any loose foam should last a few more years before ye see more

There are foam that look like that when you take the center vents out. Not sure if they're the same foams.

Dats the stuff but see at the bottom of the pic usually there the ones that come out the vent they just get old and brittle

Great, thanks for all the replies everyone! Might look at replacing that when I pull the whole unit out when/if my ivic arrives.

You can likely get some self-stick foam weather stripping from Home Depot or Lowes that would do the trick. Not sure if Lexus makes replacement pieces or not.
