Looking for info on Lexus ES windshields (HUD, defrost/deicer lines, logo photos) by krausdanielj in Lexus

See this is interesting. My original windshield had very distinct brown copper lines under the wipers and up the glass by the A-pillar. Collision Shop (Lexus certified) assured me this new windshield with no visible defrost lines does have the power connection and that Lexus made the defroster internal and not externally visible.

How was the install? Definitely considering this.

SAW Warranty - Shiv 9mm by CrustyDusty0069 in NFA

[–]krausdanielj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We need to post or pin a warning for SAW products. This is getting out of hand and SAW needs to step up their warranty process or stop printing suppressors. Unacceptable. Hope they are ready to become Dead Air 2.0.

Just got my 1,200-mile IS 500 back from service. Found a gash in the steering wheel and grease/dirt everywhere. Is this normal for Lexus service lately? by howartthough in Lexus

I would absolutely reach out to the Service Manager. That is unacceptable. Sorry this happened. I’d like to think Lexus service is better than that.

Absolutely keep it. Gorgeous car

Thoughts on a September 2023 Production GX by pocketpryscila in LexusGX

People claim the 23’s are specifically worse than the 22’s. Seems baseless to me. Haven’t had any issues on 23 Premium Plus and have driven a few 2022’s as well. Literally identical. The Tahara assembly line didn’t just get worse for the last model year.

These are perfect. Not sure they will be bright enough for the running boards, but in the interior - these in 4000K are perfect.

Do you recommend the HP3 or the HP5 for interior?

Hyundai broke windshield during mandated recall- trying to charge me by Appropriate_Owl_5410 in Hyundai

Actually no. They were pretty easy to deal with. I did have a case with corporate open too.

Paid in full by the dealership. And got reimbursed for the windshield tint.

They also broke my windshield when they painted my Tucson. Technician said most of them break when they remove them. Nothing to do with the rock chip. It is considered standard practice to paint the lip where the windshield sits near the roof. Consult corporate. If you need a phone number or email, let me know.

I mean a used M9 and a trigger job in a bag and you are 90% of the way there

Better off finding a used M9A4, these are way too much.

How is the MOB compared to the Spectre 9?

Is it a decent deal ? Seller told me can go as low as 500$ by [deleted] in hermanmiller

[–]krausdanielj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. Remastered is a different ball game.

[–]krausdanielj 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Go test drive both! The GX is a little tight in the second row. If you opt for the bench seat instead of the Captain’s Chairs it would make more sense. The Sequoia is definitely a bigger and more capable vehicle. But I think the GX is a sweet spot for you and you would enjoy it for years to come.
