I've got an '06 IS250 on order, but did not get the package that includes memory seats. I'm wondering if anyone knows if I can buy the little pop-in door module that has the memory numbers in it and if the wires for it would already be in the door...ready to hook up. I imagine that there may be a computer adjustment somewhere that would need to be made, but they probably wire all the cars for it because it's cheaper/easier. Only catch is that the memory seats also adjust the power tilt/telescope steering wheel, and mine is a manual adjustment. Has anyone tried this on the new IS or on other Lexus's? Thanks in advance.

i seriously doubt it would be that easy as to just plug in the door module and hook it up...probably a totally different wiring harness or something crazy...............hell even the illuminating door sill isn't plug and play!

To put in new seats with the computer mechanism, and to install the hardware to the controls on the door, it would cost thousands of dollars more that getting it factory installed. Doable, but definately not worth the pain, time, effort, and man-hours. Might as well trade in your car and get one with it...

hehe. Now I've heard it all. First it was HID's, then Nav, ML, park sensors, backup camera, scuff plates, sport pedals, now memory seats.

unfortunately, not all us can afford a highly optioned $40k+ car. ...so we do what we can.

Well the memory seats were only 1200 or so, with wood grain and some other stuff. I didnt get it because I wanted a certain color, difficult to find optioned the way I wanted it.... plus I dont like perforated seats.

No you cannot add it after the fact. If you're going to be the only driver of the car, it's not that big of a deal.

what about adding power rear sunshade or rain-sensing wipers lol

I'm working now to convert my IS250 to a 350. I'll post pics when finished.

I guess that is your lame attempt at humor mhiggi02. The reality of it is that list was from people serious about adding those items. The fact of the matter there are some things that can be added for a cost, and some that are just not feasible.

TimboIS, relax dude. It WAS intended to be humor (and it hit the mark IMO), not making fun of anyone. Remember, this forum is for those of us with mutual interest in our cars.
