Headlight lenses?
Is it possible to order headlight lenses for the GS?
Specifically the GS450h if it matters.
Mine are chipped and I'm fussy so I'd like to replace them but cannot find the part number for the lens only, not the entire headlight assembly.
Appreciate any help.

The part numbers listed below are for 2012-2015 4GS Only.
http://jp-carparts.com/lexus/partlis...ype=6&fig=8101
They only sell the lens by itself in Japan.
You can order from:
amayama.com
megazip.net
jp-carparts.com
I've ordered parts from all 3 websites. Just get a price quote with shipping from all 3 and order from the lowest cost one.
Passenger side, doesn't matter which one they are all the same, have same list price:
81131-30G60
81131-30G50
81131-30K40
81131-30K30
Driver side, doesn't matter which one they are all the same, have same list price:
81171-30G60
81171-30G50
81171-30K40
81171-30K30
If it wasn't chipped your better off buffing and polishing the existing lens and putting that nano coat over it.

You sir are awesome. Thank you, will contact them asap and return here with the results.
Yeah, if the headlights were just scratched it wouldn't be a big deal to wet-sand, polish and clear coat.
These are hammered, looks like the previous owner sat three feet behind a truck at 100mph for a week.

amayama.com $191.33USD ($310.93AUD) per side plus shipping
Just wetsand, buff, polish, ceramic/nano coat and it will look 100% better.

$366.65 AUD including shipping, that's what it looks like in your screenshot.
For me not including shipping:
In AUD not including shipping, $309.59

For me says AU$366 + shipping (I'm guessing but could be wrong that it'll be at least $40ea)
Ypur price converted to Australian dollars is $310, not sure why I've got a $50 premium applied. It says + shipping.
If it's $700 including shipping for the pair, I still won't do it.

You are better off getting the lenses restored by a body shop or doing it yourself. Those are steep prices. :O

Yep, my weekly wage is less than $700 with this dam COVID19!
Will see if I can fill the chips somehow.
Thank again though for the prompt replies, you're a champion.

Not to mention all the work involve in removing the headlight, dis-assembling it, and re-assembling it without a spec of dust getting on the inside.

The lens is relatively thick you can sand out the chips. Filling them will only highlight it on the lens.

From memory it's not as simple as unscrewing a few screws. It requires a heat gun etc - real disassembly. Crazy how plastic covers can cost as much as whole headlights for other cars.

I'm painting the front bar anyway, so I thought while I'm there I'll do the lights. But not for $700.
I'll give them a sand, polish and uv blocking clear.

I got mine from Alibaba for $200.
They are still great. No yellowing. No hazing. Nothing.
