0260n5.7 Posted April 10, 2003 Author Posted April 10, 2003 This pic shows the black pearl L, the spoiler and the Prado tailights.
SW03ES Posted April 10, 2003 Posted April 10, 2003 Lookin sharp! I like the taillights, sets it apart nicely.
0260n5.7 Posted April 10, 2003 Author Posted April 10, 2003 here is a pic of the Polarg M-4 parking bulbs in action. This pic was taken before I changed the headlight and foglight bulbs. Also notice the blue tint inthe signal light? That is the M-9 when off. MAC
Steve Posted April 10, 2003 Posted April 10, 2003 very nice.. wish we had the GX in the UK.. they looks well nice!

0260n5.7 Posted July 17, 2003 Author Posted July 17, 2003 I accessed it from the rear from under the vehicle. HTH MAC
470HI Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 I accessed it from the rear from under the vehicle. HTHMAC Thanks, I changed it yesterday and put in SPP H3's Super White. Not as bright as I'd like it to be.
washcorp Posted August 21, 2003 Posted August 21, 2003 How will: TRD dual exhaust TRD supercharger enhance the vehicle?
0260n5.7 Posted August 21, 2003 Author Posted August 21, 2003 washcorp, power, power, and more power. I know its not really needed on an SUV, but it would be cool to have just as a project since all the parts will be bolt on. MAC
washcorp Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 hey Mac, I'm interested in more power myself. If you don't mind me asking, what's the cost? How has it affected your gas mileage? How will it affect the warranty? Oh, by the way, the lights look sweet. On another note, have you had any of the problems with you nav? I've seen quite a few negitive notes. Thanks for the info. Kenneth
mchippo Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 MAC, I really like all of the mods you made. I have a question for you...where did you purchase the Landcruiser Prado Lights and how hard were they to install? Was it a one for one switch out of the original equipment. Thanks, MCHippo
0260n5.7 Posted August 29, 2003 Author Posted August 29, 2003 Thanks for the props. I haven't installed the S/C or the exhaust. According to my source "they" are still working out some minor details. Guam doesn't get the NAV option. The lights were acquired through a source in Central America. The housings fit perfectly but the alignment of the bulb receptacle to the housing is not the same. I had to do a little modification to the housing and relocate the contacts to get it to work. If you are at least a little electronically inclined, it is a 2 on a scale of 1 - 10, 10 being hardest. Here are some recent pics of the latest mods...enjoy MAC
0260n5.7 Posted August 29, 2003 Author Posted August 29, 2003 As all additional monitrs are individually controlled, her is a pic of two monitrors and the main system in action. MAC
rsingleton Posted August 30, 2003 Posted August 30, 2003 WHere do you get these mods.. Specifically the lights for running board, blue tint, and tail Thanks
Avirex34 Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 Hey I did some hardcore searching and I found these Prado taillights, but it's not the OEM ones. Here's the link. http://www.japanparts.com/Pic/pic065/002-011.jpg
BoulderDrew Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 A couple of questions: GX470 for 0260n5.7 or anyone with experience. 1. Hey 0260n5.7, have you recieved/installed the TRD Supercharger yet? a. if so, can you hear it under normal and hard throttle? b. How much has it effected your mileage? 2. Were the PIAA bulbs difficult to install? I am reasonably mechanical but I don't want to get into 8 hours of wrenching just for highbeam, driving, fog, and turn signals. Give me an idea on a scale of difficulty the change and hours required for the different bulb changes. Thanks, Andrew
0260n5.7 Posted January 15, 2004 Author Posted January 15, 2004 Andrew, No experience with the SC yet. As far as the bulbs are concerned, depending on which bulbs you change, it could take a couple hours. I mean if you change the reverse light and door light bulbs, you'll have to contend with the panels etc. Not a tough job at all though. HTH MAC
antonio98 Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 Does anyone know where I can get the euro style Prado tail lights for my GX470? I've seen a link for the clear tail lights, but not for the euro style.
