The reason why those dont fit is because they are for the first gen gs...Thats why they are smaller..

I was thinking the same thing....the shape of those covers seems more for the 1st Gen GS.

Here's an e-bay link for the ones I think nanotech got.

There are ones this guy has for the first and second gen GS's.....

Wonder if these fit any better than the Tom's ones...if you get the right ones....

He also has ones for the IS and from the pics he posted on e-bay, they look terrible...I am ssuming the same will be true for the GS ones.

can anyone tell me how to wire the LED?
i find it hard to open up my door and use the 'factory' wire tube to hide the LED wire.
i figured that if i connect the LED to the odometer's signal light, the LED will work ok.
but, i have problem hiding the wire...
is there any hole i can find so i can get some wire to go from odometer's side into the engine side?
my LED is almost ready to blink.....pls help!
