www.lexus-parts.com for OEM stuff; I don't know of any site off the top of my head for aftermarket--especially ones that carry black/chrome moulding like what you're looking for.

#6 of 23 custom wood paneling by jaspalb

A couple of months ago, one of us posted a link where interior additional custom wood paneling for ES 350 could be ordered. Could that site be reposted please. I am considering some additional wood over air vents and/or glovebox, etc

Some of you may have used the wood dash kit as per link below:

I would be interested to know your experience. Is it worth the price - $200 for 32 pieces (some will not be used, the kit includes pieces for Nav and non-Nav versions). Thanks.

Can anyone tell me how to get the floor mats out of my 2007 ES350? I want to change out the carpeted mats for the rubber winter mats but can't get them off of the little hooks..I'm sure there must be an easy way to do this, but I cannot figure it out...help please!

Although you can take them off, but you can just put the winter mats on top of them. That's what I did.

Hi,
To remove a front floor mat, put your hand on the end closest to the seat and hold it to the floor. Use your other hand to raise the front end of the mat towards a vertical position. Gradually slide the mat towards the seat. That will allow the angle brackets to slip out of their holes in the mat.

I thought I read somewhere that it was not recommended to lay the factory winter mats on top of the factory carpeted mats; for starters, doing so would make it just about impossible to properly secure the winter mats to the mat hooks. Also, I would think that the additional weight of the winter mats on top of the carpeted mats--combined with the weight of your feet resting on top of both mats--would cause the carpet naps (I think that's what the carpet fibers are called...no?) to flatten over time...not a good thing, as far as the cosmetic appearance of the carpet mats is concerned IMHO.
 
Sure, I guess you can fluff the naps back up but why spend time having to go through all that just because one is too lazy to remove the carpet mats to begin with?

I'm looking for a Class I or II reciever hitch for the ES 350.
 
Does anyone know who might have one?

That's correct. Lexus advises against putting the winter mats on top of the carpeted mats. The primary reason is safety. The additional height of the 2nd mat may interfere with the brake and accelerator pedals.
