In the original pictures of the different replacement shift *****, there are two Greytish colors, but the colors dont look similar to the factory gray birds eye maple. I was curious if anyone had gotten one and how it looked before I ordered. There was a post earlier by a gentleman stating an invoice for a grey one, but no responses from him about color match.

That is too funny. The OEM looks brown rather than cherry-red. Either someone swapped a **** at some point (factory, dealer, valet) or that oem **** came off the line in a different shade.

The new **** looks great.

I 've seen pics that the door grab handles come in wood too for the 600... hmmmm.

do they make them for the GS as well. I would assume that the shifters are universal for all Toyota vehicles

Default Shift ****

Sorry Guys. Was away on Travel. I did get the shift **** and it looks great. I doesn't show as much of the bird's eye as on the dash but it feels much better. I also noticed that the shift ***** are now on ebay. They are offered by the same dealer, JZS INT'L. He also offers a 5% discount once you buy something from him. I am trying to negotiate the Lexus Lighted sills now.

Now that they are on ebay things should be easier. I think most LS owners would prefer these *****. I'd been googling "wood shift **** for ls460" since I got the car with no luck. Now the product is out there....

Thanks Elsmooth Ill buy one. The Illuminated sills are another thing I am interested in, but its a crap shoot as to if you have an easy wiring job (teh harness is there) or not.
