Mounted on the passenger side on the corner of the front bumper I have the mini aerial that you can put up to help you judge the edge of the car.
It even has a light on the top which illuminates with the sidelights.
Were these a standard item or an optional extra as I have never seen another Celsior with one fitted.
Having said that I have never seen another Celsior in the UK.

They were a Toyota Dealer installed option.

Not standard on Soarer or Celsior.

Mine didn't work when I got the car so I removed it in an attempt to repair it but the nylon drive was brittle and crumbled (just like the aerial but with a wire inside it for the tip lamp).
This left a hole in the bumper but eventually I managed to get a working replacement from Japan.
I do occasionally use it when pulling out from behind another parked vehicle but it's more of a talking point than a fender pole.

Ok, silly question.. how do you use it? Is there a button somewhere which raises/loweres it? Where is it located?

One of my Celsiors has one that works. Below is a pic of the switch for it. And like Steve, I hardly ever use mine.

Righto, so thats interesting. I have a fender pole in my front bumper, but I dont have that up/down switch on my dash.

Also, I dont have that "auto airpuri" knob either, whats that for? I have the purification system in the boot, should I also have that knob to control it?

so there is no buttons? what is there? just the blank plastic trim? see whats behind it and see if any wires are behind it that lead to a plug?
if not it sounds like the bumper bar has been replaced with one that has the fender pole.
my celsior has neither of these switches/buttons

Josh.. yeh, its just a blank plate. I took the plate off, theres nothing behind it, no wires like I was hoping. So yeh, would be a repalcement bumber I think. Also my air purification system seems to work by itself, I dont know if I need that "auto airpuri" nob.

you dont need the auto airpuri nob if it didn't come with it, the air purification will work fine.
the airpuri nob and fender pole was just a dealer installed option like what don said.

The Auto Airpuri system is a filter in the rear speaker shelf, it's not really in the boot.

My celsior had a fenderpole but I removed it and filled in the hole, its an eye sore. Just like how the LS400's have radio aerials in the rear guards.

You would have to be a pretty bad driver to need to use one.
