Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Locating Ignition Power Source Under The Hood

I'm wiring up some COB LED strips like dowdogg did, mounted them in the same location in the lower grill (although I put mine at the top slot, not the bottom).

I've got them mounted and wired up and grounded. I went to grab my Fluke and find an ignition wire (I want them to be on all the time, as long as the ignition is on), and my 9v battery is dead for my Fluke. I don't feel comfortable using a test light on a newer car (stories of fried ECU, BCM and deployed air bags, etc) - so I figured I would ask here.

I'm really looking for a wire in the fuse box, coming off of the junction plug (ECS or BCM, I forget). I fused the power to the lights, so that isn't much of an issue.

I wish my 09 had Bluetooth for music. I know there was a TSB for it but I was wondering if I can do an easy fix myself to remedy the whining noise you get through the speakers when you use both the aux cord and a charger at the same time while driving.

Lexus GX 2010+ :: How To Replace Mirror On Driver Side

Well I took the GX into a rough part of town in and literally left the car parked for 30 minutes, and I come back to find the drivers side mirror missing. Good news is, the thieves unplugged it, dare I say professionally and I have no ripped or spliced wires, everything is in tact. I found a mint condition mirror on ebay and bought it for a fraction of the cost the stealership would charge, however as simple as it looks, it is a bit difficult to snap the mirror onto the white plastic piece. I do not want to apply too much pressure and crack the mirror from the front. Any hacks on an easier way to put it in?

Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Turn Signal Light On Side View Mirror?

We were following an RX350 the other night, it was a later model as the rear wiper was hidden, and I noticed it had turn signal lights at the outboard edge of the side view mirrors. Is this a 2015 thing or something we missed on the 2014?

Might not be enough to trade up for but something I hope continues into the Gen 4 models as it is a feature I like.

Lexus GX 2010+ :: Drivers Side Mirror Removal To Change Turn Signal

There was some kind of accident somewhere that broke the turn signal in the drivers side mirror on my GX 460, 2012.

I have worked on other cars before and it has been easy, remove the screws holding the housing in place, and based on swell's site I can see the new signal bolts on.

However, I see the 4 Philips screws behind the physical mirror, and I can access 3 of them, but not the 4th. It seems I would need to remove the physical mirror and I cannot figure out how.

I am attempting to wire a set of LED daytime running lights and was hoping to go through the fuse box. No luck so far trying to find a 12 volts that turns on when the key is turned.I have tried to tie into the fuse on both the radio fuses and the fog light fuse.There is 12 volts even when the key is not turned so when I wired the lights off these fuses , it would light the leds all the time. Is there another fuse box?
