wow! This is perfect, exactly what I'd be looking to do. Thank you!

That's a good point, it would be great if a lot of it is self contained. I don't actually have a unit, but I've been wanting to purchase and install one for years. I know there's also a thermometer, barometer, and average speed modes, so I'm sure there are connections and sensors needed for...

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has installed one of these (see picture) Prado gauges in an 80 series. I'm sure there are many sensors that would need to be acquired for it to function in addition to lots of custom wiring that would be done to make the Prado harness connect to the 80 harness—...

Yep, ridiculous. I had a good used one. There aren’t any used listed online that I found, but if you find someone parting out you’d probably get one cheap. Also the module snaps open very easily and I’d be willing to bet a cleaning or some simple soldering could fix it…

In case anyone has the same problem and finds this, the problem was the door control unit: part number 85980-60110. It's easy to replace-- behind the driver door card at the bottom outer corner, but replacement can be done without removing the door card.

Update: when I press the fob button when I’m in the car I can hear something behind the dash clicking both when it unlocks AND when I press it the second time, when it should lock but doesn’t. Seems like the fob signal is triggering something in the dash even though it’s not actually locking the...

I have a factory VIP keyless entry system (a non-alarm unit, keyless only) in my ‘97 80. Until today the fob (the later 2 button unit) has worked to lock and unlock the doors normally, however today it will only unlock. The lock function doesn’t work, as if the car thinks there’s a door open...

Very interested in buying these from anyone willing to part with theirs and ship to RI. Thanks

Thank you all for the excellent insight and the helpful link! @Kernal : As for how it drove without the front driveshaft, I am uncertain unfortunately. The ABS and diff lock light aren't on. I've only driven it about 20 yards into my driveway, and pulled the parking brake to stop so far. The...

Hi all, I picked up a used ‘97 CE project 80 that I’m working on restoring. The PO had removed the front driveshaft for whatever reason, and none was included with the truck. So I got a good used one with new hardware to install, but I’m wondering if there’s a specific orientation to install...

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone knows if I could install a RHD center dash bezel into a LHD 1997. My goal is to reverse/ swap the position of the climate controls and the radio (aftermarket carplay unit) in order to get the radio closer to me, making it easier to use without taking my eyes as...

Looks very nice, thank you! I think I’ll hold out for a little while on the off chance that I can source a true black one, however I’ll definitely keep this in mind if not. Thanks again!

I am located in Rhode Island, but I am willing to travel around the northeast/ east coast to pick up. If you're willing to ship (at my expense of course) that's even better. Thanks!
