Question

Car Wash?

Greets,

I have a Graphite Navi/Power/Leather 2002 IS300. Does anyone out there with a 2002 (I just don't know about other years) remove their antenna for car wash'es, or do you leave it on?

Thanks

I hate to say it, but RTFM. My manual says to remove it.

In car washes that use wheels and brushes you will want it to remove it, however with auto car washes that use only water jets, like a LaserWash system, there is no need to remove it.
