Price: $800 OBO Hi - it seems with carpooling and kid stuff, this overland build isn't ever going to happen. So as the 3rd row seats stick around, this system has to go. It was used once (yes, once) on a trip to Durango in 2021 - it's since sat in my garage. All works great. Not looking to ship...

Yes, with some very minor trimming to avoid some rubs/squeaks.

Also interested - any update?

I just ordered this Media Mount (1998-2007 LX470/Land Cruiser and GX470) with NAV - https://owlexpedition.com/collections/100-series-land-cruiser-lx470/products/media-mount-1998-2007-lx470-and-land-cruiser-with-nav - so we'll see - seems pretty versatile. I'll route my lighting charger through...

Great thread on this, but seems like too many issues for me ('05 LX) at this point. My question for you guys is did anyone look into creative iPad mounts that either fold down or otherwise allow easy access to original controls? This is likely more for the 04+(?) crowd with integrated AC...

Ended up installing them. So far so good.

Thanks, but I meant on the front. My kicker fit fine without removing anything inside the box, but because the aftermarket speaker sits further out than the factory one did, Im having trouble getting the whole assembly back together. Does that make sense?

How did this go with the black grill/assembly kind of not able to sit back on the speaker/box properly? any pics? I just did this same set up with a kicker and removed most of the waffle part, but still feels like it presses against the top of the speaker causing the whole part to barely catch...

Thanks for this. I just replace mine with a DVC Kicker someone referenced in another thread, used the foam, etc. , but can you elaborate a little on the grill/waffle part? any pics? I used snips, dremel to remove a lot of the plastic, but I feel like it still touches too close to the speaker...

The stock LX470 bumper for 2005 doesn't allow this due to the clearance of the spare tire. I guess there are some bolt-on options, but just thought I'd ask since there weren't any specs or pics from the rear. In the cruiser pictured, the spare is moved to the roof which I guess I may need to...

Very cool. Does the receiver allow for a ball mount w/ pin? Keep us posted - that is a design that is sorely needed in the 100 series bumper market.

I ended up getting the Blue Ridge, but I can see where it won't work for everyone. It's positioned more forward than many (including myself) were looking for. My kids complain that its too close to their heads in the back when loaded. I like the design - just may try to figure out how to...

Those Rigid Pods - which ones are they? And did you consider the flush mount variant? I have the same bumper (same rig actually) and want to add some lights there, but was considering the D-Series Diffused Driving beam (clear) for a more versatile light, but curious now why you went with those...

Same product?
