Yeah it sucks cuz the drivers seat will always wear out more. My driver's seat is peeling, discoloring, and cracking in one of the sections. It might be time for a leather repair kit atleast.

I'm jealous, 30K is nothing! You can drive your GS for another 10 years easily. I have 81K on my 99 and I feel thats relatively low mileage

if u like, u can give Parts Department of Openroad Lexus in Richmond, BC, Canada a call see if they still have one in stock
http://www.richmond-lexus-vancouver.com/index.html

they had 1 more when i picked mine up, they were for display so not in the best condition as one of them has a scratch on top

but u can always fix that

sorry if i had more time and if i lived closer to that dealership, i wouldve gone out to buy one and ship it to you
