Good evening,

Yes, you can replace it with used but you are taking a chance if the used one is no good.

I attached a picture of one available from rockauto. It is pricey but so are all the parts for a Lexus.

I sent you a link for the throttle body. The price was around $400.00.

A new one from Lexus is around $700.00 to $800.00.

I would call around your area and see if someone can help you.
