Hi KJ in JPN,

I am going to Osaka tomorrow. Besides the Lexus dealership, can you tell me a few places I should go to find other types of Lexus parts and accessories? If you know names, addresses, or website, that would be helpful. Thanks!

Because Japanese people can't say L's. That's why. Nothing wrong with that.

lol, it's when they try to speak english, they have that heavy accent. Thus.....no R's are produced.

Well, so far.....no one has called me back. Guess they didn't think I really wanted to order one. Will try again later.

man...so much info in just this post!
I am currently in Osaka but unfortunately, have to leave for the states today.

Maybe if someone passes me the info, I can buy some stuff for the guys in the forum ...since I am here quite often.

Glad that there are a lot of people willing to share info.

Hi kensteele,
Unfortunately, I don't know Lexus parts shops in Osaka area. Because, I'm living in next of Tokyo city.
Because Lexus Japan just started last summer, the shop is still few. It takes many time to get parts from the third party. The LED Dome Light too.
We ,Japanese, can get LED Dome Light via the market place on the internet or order at parts shop. Maybe, it take a week.

Have a nice trip!

I'd recommend once you identify the source you reach out to Steve Ganz (or I will on your behalf) to see if he can import some for us.
