Ehh I'd rather not just buy another used one as this they are bound to fail as well.

I'm going to call Mikado and see what they can do for me.

So does anyone have pictures of this set up?

For the people that are naming bulbs from Lexus in the above posts, are these the bulbs needed for the LCD display or the buttons that are on the climate control?

Reason I ask is because my LCD display currently does not light up and display the time and settings. However, when the sun hits it and you stand above it, you can faintly see the characters. I found this out by reaching in the passenger side to turn on the car to cool it down the other day.

Anyone have a solution to the burnt out LCD screens?

Thanks!

Okay I know this thread is like 2 years old.

But I want to know which twist lock bulbs should be purchased for the 2nd gen?
I bought T1.5 for my 1st Gen LS and the DIY was fairly simple from LexLS.com

but the part number in the initial post is
84999-60460 and 84999-60450 is what you guys said the 2nd gen uses

First Gen uses 83119-24490 do you guys think that T1.5 could be used for both climate control systems? Even though the part numbers are different?

UCF20,, well its not mine, my father has one and he wants me to do it, and my best friend has one also, and he wants it done too!

I shouldnt have shown em what I did on my 1st Gen lol...
but your 99 has no navi correct? and hmm neowedge? I hope those fit
I good percentage of me feels that they will fit. But I want to be sure before I make them order the wrong thing....

How did you figure out that neowedge was what you needed? and do you have any shots of it?
