Default RX300 Tool Kit

Hello,

I am trying to find the correct OEM tool kit for a 2001 RX300 used. Are the 8-10 and 12-14 wrenches in the original kit labeled as Lexus? Same question about the pliers and screwdriver. If anyone could post pics of an original 2001 RX300 tool kit with pics of both sides of the tools and case, and markings on the screwdriver, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Thank you Salim,

Some kits on eBay have tools labeled Lexus, and other kits have tools without the Lexus label.

My hope is to gather the info I need to get the exact kit and tools that would have been placed in the vehicle at the factory.

One for 17.99 looks right.
I am reluctant to post a link.

This is what came with my 1999 RX300. I've never used the tools or first aid kit.
The tools are low quality.

For completeness, the picture from maxSteel has few pieces missing
Scissors jack
Crank handle for scissors jack
Lug-nut "L" shaped wrench.

Tool kit provided with vehicles sold in USA is very minimalistic.

maxSteel,

Thank you for posting that pic.
I can't make out the markings on the pliers. Am I correct that none of the four small tools are marked as "Lexus"?

Does Lexus come with the same kit in Australia? Luckily I have not had any need to use the kit, but it is pretty dismal. Loosening and tightening the battery terminal and thats about all you can do with it.

The kit i have is called "Lexus warning triangle & valet pack" It is a triangle, set of leather gloves, leather rag, Jack, and brace along with the above multi grips and screw drivers.
