Front Height Sensor
Went to the shop this weekend and had my car on a lift..I notice metal part hanging loosely on the front left wheel area... I ask the mechanic and was told that this was the Height Sensor that need to be replaced. Can someone tell me what exactly the Height Sensor is and what does it do?. Thanks!

From my understanding the front and rear height sensor is for the auto-level headlights. I can't imagine it would be hard to find a used one and replace it yourself. I know I had to bend my back when I installed my front shocks. Its a pretty simple sensor..

on ebay theres a yard parting out a black sc430, im sure this sensor is still on there. Write them a message on any one of their auctions and ask them for it and price, you might have to send them a picture.

Over here in Tree hugging norther california is a car guys dream come true. A place just north of Sacramento called Rancho Cordova or one big salvage yard. I stop off there when I go to Lake Tahoe and get free shipping.. =) Anyways if these guys don't have it then your out of luck. Their website seems to be down and merged with everyone else's out there but the place is huge and I've bought a lot of stuff for my old Mr2 there..
Here's the website.. http://www.taprecycling.com/ Give them a call.
Its just a thought but my height sensor looks alot like the ones that were on my cousins GS400. So if it is, then there should be thousands of them out there.. You may want to ask

I have the factory service manuals at home (and the electrical one as well) for my model year (08) but I can't see that it would be too different. If no one posts something before that, I'll look to see what's in the manual for this. Looks from the parts diagram that it's behind the wheel well liner so likely not terribly difficult to access but there may be something to calibrate it for level. The manual should have the details.

Okay, here are the pics of the leveler install instructions and the headlight aiming instructions. If these don't work well here I can PDF them and send them to you.
