Need help sourcing a Gated Shifter Bezel 97'+
Lexus dealer is quoting $520 for PN 58805-24100(wood look) (no heated seats)
I do not want the woodgrain look, Just basic black/grey plastic.
Does anyone have a good source?
Also, does anyone know the p/n for the basic black version w/o heated seat option?
Thanks

First, gated shifter's were on 98+ and also only have the wood grain bezel. The black one pictured was painted, you aren't going to find an OEM black bezel for the gated shifter. Another option would be to modify the older bezel (92-97) to fit around the shifter by trimming it, bondo-ing it, and painting it... or you could just get the 5spd shift boot and fit that over the gated shifter.
Your best bet to finding the bezel would be to find it at a junkyard, if you're lucky enough to find a 98+ SC or through ebay or through the classified.

This is the 5spd shift boot over the gated shifter. From what he says you need to do some dremeling on the plate to be able to shift into the lower gears, if not, then you'd only be able to shift down to D.
From a PM when I asked about fitting the 5spd boot:

I had some triming to do because I relocated the PWR button...as you can see. If you do not relocate, I don't thinkl there's any trimming...though I dont knowe where you'll put the button. If you do relocate you will need to trim some plastic (it's easy just cut whats in the way) that is toward the back of the car, I cannot get into 1st gear I cant remember if it's because of the button relocation. no matter; it s totally worht it.

Well since its been proven i just need some help here. Look at how low the gated hole goes down to the back towards to armrest. then with the shift boot over it there is so much room back there. it seems as if the plastic in the rear of the 5spd shift plate should be on the gated shifter assembly. thats the problem i had.
