Need help with ISC Wind Deflector
Hi all, I have owned 4 Lexus cars now and recently bought my wife an ISC and we have the wind deflector now but I have no idea how to take the caps off where the rods go without breaking them and forcing the caps out. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
John

Hi John,
You may have missed TomDac's post in the other thread about the installation kit that is needed: PT933-53100-WS which you can get from your local Lexus dealer or check eBay since Sewell has closed its online store.
The plugs get replaced by the round plastic receivers that come in the kit so the only way to get the plugs out may be to destroy them.
The kit contains two sets of these receivers (a pair of black and a pair of alabaster to match your interior) and the headrest receivers that accept the folding blades on the rear of the screen. More about those can be found on this post: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-c/657002-what-the-hell-is-this.html

Thanks for the reply and I did see that one and I have the kit with the new plugs but I have tried to pry the plugs out with no success. Can not find anything on how to take them out. Might have to go up to Lexus John

I thought I read the installation procedures at one point but now Sewell's site is down...
Is the plug part of the molded panel? If it is, I think a hammer and punch are needed or maybe a rotary tool.
If it is a plug, poking a pick through it and then using a curved pick or even a corkscrew to pull it out might work.
I hope someone who as done it will chime in for you.

Hello,
I just purchased my ISC and it came with a deflector, but no one at the dealer had a clue on how to install it. It does not seem to have the headrest clips, or even a place to attach the clips onto the screen as I see in others pics. Any help would be appreciated. It seems as tho they just pushed into the back seats, which is why there is indentation on the leather now

There is a hardware kit you can get from the dealer that has the headrest receivers and the plastic and metal sleeves if those were not already in there. Not a huge difference from just shoving the rubber arms under the headrest but a cleaner look and no marks on the leather as you mentioned. I think I paid $75 for the kit. My car had never had the windscreen so had to start from scratch.

Not sure what you mean. The blades are built onto the oem wind deflector and simply slide into the headrest receiver parts from the hardware kit. Sorry I’m not home to grab a pic for you.

you mean the blades that fold out from the windscreen and go into the headrest receiver? that part is definitely integrated into the windscreen...
