Thanks for doing this. I will order one as soon as I get confirmation from my dealer my LC has arrived and the paperwork is signed. Hope it results in some nice additional sales for you. Love the state of custom fabrication we have today and entrepreneurs embracing it.

I think I like that better than the sides as well. Subtle but brings the legacy stripes/nod into a clean simple design. Sign me up if you can produce that easily.

Yes, make sure it’s repeatable and worth your time. Don’t make it too complicated. I definitely don’t want the white background. Any idea on price for raised acrylic vs vinyl sticker? I would probably lean towards the acrylic if the colored stripes look good. Shouldn’t be too difficult to get...

You can see the subwoofer in the lower left corner of EOD's picture.

Also, open to a vinyl decal without the clear part like in the video. I just don't want the clear part of the sticker to start to get dirty. You're more of an expert than I am on how your product would hold up over time to car washes and weather. What would you suggest?

Looks great!

On the side probably. If you watch this youtube review, you'll see at around the 1:10 mark he shows the decal they had on the early prototype models. I liked the subtle nod with the retro stripes and have been looking for someone to recreate it in a non sticker form so it would last longer. I...

Any chance you could produce a raised version of this with the colored stripes similar to the Prado badge you made? I would order 2 of them if you do.

Issue was identified back in mid-May when the QC hold was put in place. Pretty sure they quickly adjusted the manufacturing in Japan with the fix but still had to fix the ones that had been manufactured already. Technician I visited with said it was faster for him and his guys to go to the...

Can confirm the QC hold is a sunroof drain issue. Talked to one of the technicians who was involved in fixing them and they drop the interior roof liner and place a small clip on the drain hose to fix it and its on its way. The issue that was identified was if a Land Cruiser was parked at a...

If anyone is looking for FE at MSRP, Legends Toyota in the KC Metro had a Trail Dust and Heritage Blue FE for MSRP. The Trail Dust has K02's added on by the manager which they were charging cost for but they told me they would take them off if I wanted and put the original tires back on since I...

From @jeffd in another thread. Maybe he will chime in here as well: "Beautiful rig. And trust me, you want it built at the Hino plant. I’ve delivery QA/QC’ed enough of these now (16-17) to see a difference in build quality and Hino units are the ones whose panels, especially the fuel filler...

Someone who inspects vehicles coming from both plants mentioned on a little while ago that they noticed Land Cruisers coming from Hamura appeared to have more uniform panel gaps than those coming from Tahara. i thought that was an interested data point. Kind of makes sense if Hino/Hamura is...

Are you putting the land cruiser into "camp" mode by locking the driver door from inside or using the mechanical key to lock the driver door from the outside? This keeps the hybrid system running and engine cycling on and off through the night.

I understand polarization. Some manufacturers add in the ability to rotate the polarization of the HUD to work better with polarized sunglasses. Similar to how when you tilt your head side to side the polarization of the sunglasses gets out of sync with the light reflecting off of the glass and...

Does the Rotation option allow you to change the polarization of the HUD to adjust for polarized sunglasses?

If it has RK in it, Hino, R5 = Tahara.

That makes sense. Surprised we still haven’t had a direct comparison side by side of the lights. You may try to adjust the aim upwards a bit so the cutoff line is a bit higher. The headlights are auto leveling but you should be able to raise angle of the cutoff line of the lights.

Curious what your issue is with the round lights?

Once a vehicle has been “sold”, some dealers remove them from the site to prevent getting lots of calls about vehicles that are no longer available.

Owners manual doesn’t say anything about a sunglasses holder anywhere in the vehicle. I’ve always preferred the visor clips to the drop down holders. We’ve had sunglasses get stuck in some of the ceiling compartments and it was a pain to move them around so the compartment would open. Didn’t...

My hearing cuts out around 10,000 hz so I wouldn’t be able to hear it but my wife or daughters would tell me I’m sure. Need to find a technician at the dealership less than 30 years old with good hearing so they can confirm to the dealership what you’re hearing.

Hendrick Lexus KC has a used Luxury+ GX550 they are asking $115k for. Tells you what they think of their clientele who are waiting patiently to purchase one from them. They won't even let customers test drive one. I laughed on the phone when he tried to justify the price and hung up.

If you watch Car Care Nut’s video around the 24:20 mark, he discusses the frame and wax Toyota is using.

I’m curious if we’ll be able to order these badges that come on some of the other market FE trims. This one is in S Africa I believe. Might balance out the back if you put one on the opposite side of the black Land Cruiser badge.

Good to know. I still think having a 5th one is a good idea. If one has to be popped out to rotate the spare, odds are they will get damaged at some point. Most people won’t rotate the spare so they are probably fine with 4.

Love the look compared to the stock center caps. For people ordering, might want to add a 5th so if you do the recommended 5 tire rotation in the manual you don't have to pop them out as you rotate.
