Actually, I don't recall seeing a REAL picture of an LS interior with passenger side memory buttons anywhere, the pics of the RHD Japanese LS460's I have seen don't have those buttons on the left side passenger doors neither . . .

no it does have it. that lexus logo should be in blue but the bright lights of the room cover it out.
im surprised you guys are saying that the LS doesnt have the illuminated lights...my RX has them in orange as standard.

None of the LS460's I've seen in person have them, & they look similar to above, not sure about the lights covering them ...
My SC430 have the illuminated sills with orange letters too .

If you are talking about the same one I've seen too, that's from a European website "picture/illustration" of the dash/front seat area, I am not sure that's a real life photo that's untampered with . . . that's why I am not really certain of the passenger side memory seat buttons . . .

I believe the reason for no memory on the passenger side seat is because the passenger seat is reserved for the boss (a Japanese thing) can’t see the boss riding in a IS or GS. Read “The Lexus Story” book.

Interesting theory, however which leads to this question, "Why would the Boss go without, presuming of course that bosses like to be in control?". Just wondering...
