Do Toyota dealerships sell Lexus spares?

I'm trying to get a pair of Lexus LS430 projector lenses for an upcoming project but I'm having issues finding some new RHD items.

Do Toyota dealerships sell Lexus spare parts?

Thanks much.

They can get them but it is from a Lexus dealer so will be somewhat gold plated.

Try pommyland, theirs are about the same as ours.

Don't forget to take a jar of vaseline with you.

Not unless they are a Lexus Dealership also. This is actually coming from a Toyota Spare Parts Interpreter... ( me )

However, there are some change over parts that were used on both Toyota and Lexus models (brake pads, filters etc)... but alot of the external parts weren't a cross over...

LEXUS of melbourne is probably your best bet, I havent found them to to too bad regarding pricing either, ive had 3 and had a few dealings with them.

LS430 were xenon lamps to, so if its just the housings your after then perhaps try toyota/lexus auto salvage in sydney, they do freight.

Thats right, I'm after LS/SC430 projector lenses from their xenons OR two full headlight assemblies, I'm hoping I can get a pair of the lenses for under $500. I'll look into the place in Sydney but I'll also phone Melbourne Lexus, might be able to get them to deliver to my work.

Do you have the number/website/email adress for Lexus auto salvage in Sydney?

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated guys.

Unfortunately my closest Toyota dealership is only a Toyota one, they don't sell Lexus.

For some reason I seem to recall one of these lights costing like $3000 or something.
Hell if a Corolla or Hilux headlight is $500, youve got buckleys of a Lexus being anywhere near it.

Yeah, I thought that would be the case but I'm willing to go second hand, I'm only after the low beam lens assembly of the bastards.

Pretty sure they have low beam xenon and high beam halogens, like the RX350.

Reminds me of when I was working for Honda and we quoted $12,000 for a new drivers seat in a DC2 Integra Type R.
