Thank you....is there a site I can go to or a number I can call because the local dealership down here is trying to charge $306.

Ask them what the MSRP is on it, and tell them you wont pay their mark-up.

I checked with My Lex Parts and they have it priced for $162.00. Do you guys think I should buy from them.

Also, is there any kind of complicated installation/adjustment procedure for that thing? I assume it's the cable for all the electronics on the wheel, correct?

Here's a pretty cool site:
OK - they won't let me put a link in for the site (not sure why - first time I have had a link blocked!), but it is a site to get part #s and approximate prices at.

Google for Toyota DoItYourself.

Nothing but 4 screws to take out. Nothing major whatsoever. I ordered the part from a lexus dealership in Plano, TX for 150... but I spent an extra 70 dollars to get it sent to me overnight. I saved 50 plus dollars from the local dealership and I didnt have to wait an extra 4 to 5 days for it to be shipped to me from the local dealership. Thank you guys for everything. You all have helped me tremendously.

I'm still baffled how you messed it up irreparably in the first place? Care to expound?

does anyone know if the part is backward compatible with gen 2 es's... if so I can get one from the local yard here..... let me know... were talking cheap....

Really just not being careful. I popped open the top of the part and its ended up everywhere. I thought I had it put back on properly so I was driving and Im hearing the constant sound of something just crackling which was messing it up more.

What year is the es may I ask and the reason I went ahead and just purchased a brand new one is because I dont want to get one thats used from a prior accident where the airbag deployed. I didnt want my fiance driving my car around and this possibly happen.
