🛠️ What Have You Done To Your LC250 Today?

[Watufaka]

Had my digital card key finally programmed today at a local Toyota dealership. Absolutely loving not having to carry that big ass key fob anymore. Super thin.

Upgraded the interior mediocre vanity and rear LED lights. Ordered from Japan. Was not easy to install with instructions in Japanese. Thought they had sent me the wrong product and about to give up when I figured out I had to remove some pieces of the original LED lights.

How are you liking this upgrade? Is it really that much brighter than stock?

Love it, like night and day. It was easy install after I figured out what to do.

On the way too is an upgrade to the front door LED lights.

Attached photos are parts of my setups for Overlanding. Some of them were shared in my other posts which you can search for them if you like.

Soon, I will share the completed/entire setups with:
• Rooftop tent (Ikamper mini)
• Hitch-mount spare tire carrier: 33” OK3 tire, extra fuel+water, recovery boards Maxtrax, license plate with light, etc.
• Side panels with extra fuel / water + shovel/ etc.
• All AC lights: rock lights, bumper light bar, ditch lights, front roof spot lights, side lights, chasing lights
• Control panel / switch panel for all AC lights
• ARB side awning
• ARB built-in air compressor
• Drawer system , fridge slider

As a designer and off-road / off-grid camping person, I utilized all available stuffs to customize for my taste / uses.
I learned and did those over years with my Gwagon for same purposes above without much after marker gears manufactured for it. (See my gwagon photos for my previous custom works)

To follow up my last post, attached are more photos of my setups.
I have RTT Ikamper mini, but did not have it in these photos. Probably in future
You may notice my ARB awning installed a bit further out from OEM roof rack because RTT edge will sit right above it (Ikamper RTT is 55” wide…wider than roofrack width). The 2 Rhino heavy duty cross bars which laid on top of cross bars of roofrack to give me 1.5” raise for easy install and take off RTT. Also they are the base for ARB awning brackets connected.
Happy Holidays to all and happy Land Cruiser

Damn, best so far. Love the American flag on the glass!

Gotta get one first! The dealership owner took their 1st Edition. 1958 incoming, but want a LC trim with the Premium Package.

Can you believe that here we are, 14 months later, still waiting??

How do you like the rear tire swing? Does not having availability to the reverse sensors bother you?

Bonobo recovery points: Front Recovery Points

Great quality, perfect fit, and incredibly easy mod.

What do those do that the OEM points don't do?

 

[t3lcfe]

Spare tire swing/carrier is ONLY used for off-road trip. So, I temporarily okay without reverse sensor in the woods ( I just turn it off). I believe that soon in future, aftermarket will come up with spitting wire idea to connect to the OEM backup camera
Most of time in the city, I still have spare tire at original place, that’s why I picked AT tire size OK3 275/70 R18
Most my setups ideas are put in or take off quickly. Personally/ my purpose is not carrying around in town with whole bunch of Overlanding gears.

I simply like them better. They seem at least as strong as OEM but I think they look nicer.

Thats slick! How did you get one, did you order it from the dealer?

Order it online from a Toyota dealership like Ed Martin. Much cheaper than the local stealership here in the Bay Area. The part is actually for a 5th generation Tundra or Tacoma but will work on the LC.

There's a few posts concerning the CC key.
