Dude,

What was the bill on the dashboard?

Also, care to list the items you bought and what was the bill on each?

Interested,
Hector

Dashboard, I really didn’t get the best deal as I ordered it through my local dealer, 494.00. Bell Lexus has it for 260 but they won’t ship such large part. The other parts are from Bell Lexus:

Hmmm. I just got a pair of Koyo 3DACF044D9GRAM rear hubs from Megazip for $257.88 plus $22.74 shipping from UAE. They're identical to the Lexus branded units and made in Japan. I am replacing all my hubs as I am close to 220k miles now. I also bough all new bolts for the hubs. They don't look bad, but they've been subjected to the same forces the original hubs have experienced, and I figured it makes sense to fully reset the clock on this.

Finished up wiring the new park/brake lights mounted in the inner tail lamps. My car doesn't come prewired with the rear fog light function so I decided to run some new wires and use them as park/brake lights. I am using some Vleds V6 Triton red LED bulbs and I think they match the factory lights very well. I am not fully satisfied with the modified lenses as some plastic shavings got behind the lenses and I couldn't get them out. @DownUnder is helping me acquire some JDM ones that already has the bulb provisions.

Appreciate the detailed posts on your work. Always love to see updates in here.

I picked up that dash a while back. Waiting till my garage is finished to install it so maybe you will beat me to it as I don't want to put it on the car while it still lives outside.

Thanks! You will most likely beat me to it as far as dash install, I am having the new one wrapped in alcantara and the current one in the car does not need to be replaced
