Couple Questions: LS400 Timing Belt & Plastic Clips
OK - first post on the forum! I have a 1991 Lexus LS 400 with about 150,000 miles on it. My dad gifted to us -- had been his daily driver.
We're due for a timing belt: I live in the Seattle-area and would love recommendations for a quality shop for this.
Second, I was replacing a headlight lamp yesterday and investigating the engine bay. Quite a few plastic clips, if you will, are broken. For example, there's a plastic "cover" - or two actually - to the left and right of the radiator. Those are to be held in place with push in plastic clips. Can those be obtained?
We want to keep this gray girl running!

Those may be here:

Many of the plastic clips and similar share with Toyota parts that are usually less $ from them. May take those in and see if they can match. Often they ask what car and if you tell them a Lexus they go into auto pilot and say you have to get them there. Pick a similar year Camry or Avalon and see what they turn up.
Certain parts will be scarce as a head's up.
