Default LS 460 door locks installed on my F....Check it out!

I believe i'm the first to do this mod on any IS or GS. Saw these on 600h and thought they were cool as hell-they're wrapped in black leather in the center and chrome on the edges-they look so much better than the regular black plastic ones used throughout the Lexus lineup *more pics on page 3*

My buddy did the install for me...funny thing is he did it while I slept I gave him my keys the night before and he came in about 7am to install these in my garage Sunday morning while I slept LOL! I woke up about 10am went in the garage and they were all done I think I should thank him since he did install alot of my mods for free Thank You Helson your my brother from another motherThey look really good when your sitting in the driver's seat-they add a touch of class flows well with the carbon trim also.

CL member Passnu2 also installed for me yesterday a set of Garak 6k low beams V-leds 5smt city lights and Mtec Drl's!!! The Garax look great at night I have a 3k hid fog kit that was gonna be installed but I received the wrong bulbs with the kit-so I guess I'll wait till I get a replacement from Cliff....Thnx again Mike for the flawless install and saving my Lexon lip from your driveway!

That's a great one, I had made the comment to myself a couple of time that the door lock on my wife's LS felt better than the on the F, knowing I can get the same on the F is great.
Do you know the exact parts numbers ?

I talked to Darrell over at Sewell Lexus about these...even he wasn't sure it could be done but he took great care of me regarding these-he's the guy you wanna talk to about these so you know the red stickers that show if the door is locked/unlocked have to be ordered separate from the locks(they are not included together) those actually took longer to arrive than the actual locks

Looks really hard. Doesn't seem like it would be too hard if you had a door diagram
