I'm needing a new set of rubber bonnet seals for the IS200 , I have just noticed today that there has been mice eating the seals and they are something that could do a lot more damage . So has anyone got a set and also any advice to keep the mice away ? And before anyone suggests getting a cat well just NO .

once mice get into a car they can be a nightmare to remove. Try and find out if they are nesting somewhere and destroy it. I dont think there is that much you can do about it, unless there is some sort of deterrant spray to keep them away.

For the seals i would have thought a breaker would be your best bet, cant imagine they will be cheap from Lexus

If its not garaged then youn can run an extension lead out and position it in a ip rated box put the repellant in the box

Also ensure the cable ir protected by a rcd

It can work if you place in a waterproof box places like b&q sell outdoor sockets that come with a rcd plug in module so you can make your own one up and just throw it under the car bit like the ghostbusters ghost trap thing lol

Or how far from the house is the garage as these things normally have a range of 20m I think.....
