I'm installing mine at the end of the week. to my knowledge though you have to get the same year as the plugs maybe different. I have a 2016 IS200T and purchased on from another 2016 F Sport and bought one that didn't have navigation as my car does not either. I have already had it installed to test so everything was just plug and play just been waiting for the mileage to align so can permanently install it. I've got about 350 miles left and will put mine in then.

Does that work like that? I know in BMW world the vin# in the cluster EEPROM has to match the vin# in the DME (ECU) or a tamper dot (code) will appear and it'll show the cluster is tampered with. and that's on a 15 year old car. i'm sure lexus has something more sophisticated nowadays??

Ya there are 2 other threads if you search for cluster where discussion was going on. That you can pay to reprogram the milage if you buy one thats a lot different than your car. I bought mine a few months ago on ebay that had 6k miles more than my car and just stored it till it reached that. Hmm not sure about temper code. Few people have done it without any issues.
