I do, but a buddy is trying to get the short extensions. If he cannot then I need these and I will cut them down. I will ping you when it is resolved!

Quick update, my son is coming to Dubai for Xmas and I think he can carry the extensions back. Not sure about the AC controls. Just waiting now for confirmation of stock on the shorty extensions.
I heard there are still a few 90 series in a scarp yard in the Al Dhaid area. When I get back home to Ras Al Khamiah on the 9th Im going to do a drive out that way. I have the bench front seat but I am going to see if i can find the bucket seats cause I really want a center console and cup holder now. Mines a 5speed manual so a cup holder would be nice.

The Prado has been a bit on the back burner but one thing I could not delay is a tire change. The ones on the truck were starting to herniate. Just a matter of time before a blowout.
Kumho - Road Venture AT52 (Qty 5)
265/75 R16
I also found bent rear suspension elements while the tire work was going on:
I'm going to have to replace these.
And when the old tires were coming off the TRD rims the beads disintegrated. Clearly the old tires were about to blow.

The result was good.
And I love the square profile of the Kumho's

Today was a red letter day! The Little Prado finally has the missing trim from the rear wheel to the rear bumper installed!
A big thank you to @t00manyuserz, my friend in Japan with a Middle East 80 he imported there at great trouble and expense, who helped me source the rear trim pieces when nobody else could find them!
And I finally was inspired to make some progress on the center console and do something about the floppy registers.
