Not that IK of, as all the gen 2's use the same brake setup...rotors/pads/calipers........A great upgrade is to go w/ the gen3 calipers/pads/rotors.....direct bolt on.....You'll want to flush the old brake fluid & either replace the oem brake hoses w/ new ones or go w/ SS brake hoses........

Recently did a 2007 400H, no pad sensors on all 4 corners.

What was disconnected at 2:53? Wire to pads.

ABS sensor, it wasn't really disconnected just the bracket for the wire was removed for better access to the top bolt for strut. If you look at 4:18, no wires come out the caliper and every brake pad sensor I've done come out the top of the caliper, plus the wire you see at 2:53 goes in the wrong direction from the caliper.

If I'm wrong, call me out again, but only Lexus I've seen pad sensors with my own eyes was on a 2006 LS430 with the big 4 pot.

My Audi Q5 has sensors and 4 pot calipers, dreading the day it needs new pads.......
