well, in that case, tell them you will bring the car to lexus dealership and they will have to pick up the bill, that's just how it goes?

but yes, i agree, if your car is still under warranty, try to use it

dude..NOTHING BROKE OR SNAPPED.....the fact that the sensor is THAT sensitive, where it will foul up because of some tugging, is gay to say the least.

But for someone to call my installer incompetent because of a ****ty design is not only incompetent of them, but IMO RETARDED!

exactly!!! modding isn't an exact science, as mods usually don't fit 100000%.

when you mod, you take your chances and hope for the best. It is alll part of that learning curve

I did my own spring install and had no problems and I also changed my own castor arm bushings at a later date. Mechanics have to be more careful IMO and not use the BFH so much.

I installed my L-tuned and did not have a problem. We were very careful when we worked around the sensors though.
