How to differenciate if you're buying a Toyota Harrier or Lexus RX? -Part Three-

Caption : The Toyota Harrier with Wald emblem.

Caption : Plenty of after-market accessories to dress up your Toyota Harrier or Lexus RX.

Caption : Owners of Toyota Harrier sometimes change to the Lexus RX grill, while Lexus RX owners change to VIP grills.
Caption : The Toyota Harrier airbag could be changed to the Lexus RX airbag for some RM1,000.

Obviously, the badges can be easily changed for less that RM500, and the rims could be changed to after-market ones instead of the Toyota Harrier's original 17' sports rims. Some even replace the windows so that the Toyota logos are no longer etched on them, the airbag cover and the shape of the no plate even!
But it would take more effort and monies to remove the Toyota Harrier JDM-left assist mirror that is not present on Lexus RX. Go on, look at the Lexus RX SUVs on the roads and you would find that it's much easier to tell the difference between the real McCoy now.
Caption : From the right side, the Toyota Harrier and Lexus RX are similar.
Caption : From the left profile, the extra JDM-assist mirror on front fender is for Toyota Harrier only.
 
Caption : Lack of JDM-assist mirror reveals the real Lexus RX under normal circumstances.

Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
Caption : Oops, the dead give-away JDM-assist mirror!
Caption : Except for the airbag logo, both the dashboard looks exactly the same.

  1. Hi thanks for the wonderful information of Harriers which are so difficult to find. I am getting my 2010 240g soon and it comes with a premium aftermarket dvd/gps player (Carrozzeria AVIC-VH9990 to my surprise), but menu is in Japanese of course. Is there anyplace which I can get it converted to English menu? I know the gps is out, but since I'm quite an audio freak I would like to keep that!
