I have the windows 20% tinted all around. I roll the windows down to back up at night. That should be a problem for you because of the backup camera

Air suspension using the rod adjustment method. Debating if I should order the controller now or in spring time but will definitely do so.

Those LDR's are driving me crazy. Had another crack last week. This is the second time this has happen. Last time was the rear (hairline cracks in two places, so bought brand new wheels and tires), this time its the front. Instead of shelling out another $1400+, I had it repaired. Much cheaper at $200+. PS: No chain tire stores around me will mount a welded wheel. Said too much liability on their part.

Low profile and potholes = $$$$

JuniorEXE, 20% all around would be nice. It especially dark when I engage the side and rear curtains, no way you can see in the back seats, and when I reverse, the rear goes down automatically

racinstyle, thought your controller was for 01-03 only? I have a 04, do I need a new harness?

Thanks.

You just need the 04+ wire harness. You can get em from www.L-Tunedparts.com This controller will work with pretty much any Lexus stock air suspension.

Just called Luis @ Carson. The harness itself is $235. That will most likely kill any deal you can give me.
