Will 2009+ Door Panels fit on 2006-2008?
Has it been done?
I want the black maple trim in my 2007. This requires installing 2009+ door panels that fit the black maple switch panels.
I really just want to know if the newer panels will line up properly to the existing mounts in my car. I am hoping to luck into some information or insight that my research thus far has not uncovered.
I have read through ISCJonny's & Krizzle's threads which cover a similar topic but not quite this one. Hoovey's photos of the different interiors are unfortunately no longer linking to ISCJonny's thread.
Thanks!

Thank you for bringing this up. I was wondering myself if something like this would come into play here. Thanks!
Thank you for chiming in on this. How far along did you get before giving up on the idea? Did it seem like a simple harness change would do it or was it more than that? Thanks!

I already replaced the door panels themselves, and when it came to the trim i realized the difference in the connectors. Because I am not good friends with wiring I just took the panels of and put all my original ones back on.
If you know enough about wiring things up I would suggest go ahead and do it. It just sucks that Lexus didn't make that color on the 06-08 models.

By chance--have you been able to see the white wood trim that SewellParts has made available for the 06-08? I've been considering that as an alternative should my dreams of the black maple not work out. I've never seen it in person though, so I really don't have a feel for what it would look like installed.
Thanks again!

Will 2007 door switches fit in 2011 door panels
I was thinking about buying 2011 door panels knowing that they’ll fit but I was unaware that the wiring changed in newer years i was wondering tho if I could just put my door and window switches from my 2007 panels into the 2011 panels or was there differences that won’t let them fit?

2008 Lexus is250 door panels on a 2009
Should it still work? If I were to swap out a 2009 is250 door panels with a 2008? The person who sold me the car said it was a 2008 but insurance says it’s a 2008 . So it’s hard to tell what would work on it. Would anyone be able to help me and let me know
