Ahaaaa yes that makes sense. So mine is in the ‘unblock’ position as I can lower my spare without a problem and that would also explain why it’s in the way as it is supposed to be down in the ‘blocked’ position during everyday use. Thanks so much for finding this!

Aha that indentation is there anyway. Didn't know that. Still mine has a recession / contour as well 🤔. But could still be aftermarket of course. I will try to take it out this weekend.

I have taken the strip of once but couldn't get that thing out so not sure about wires. I will have a look again this weekend.

I was thinking it came from the factory this way as there is more space between the elevated ledges where that thing is compared to where the screws are. Also it’s kind of countersunk. Most of the 80 series Land cruisers here in SA are white, but VX’s are rare I believe. Mine is an Australian...

Anyone knows what this is? It seems that it is supposed to be there when you look at the metal strip but it's very much in the way and I want to take it out. Curious what it might be though. It's on a 1995 VX Auto with dual ac. Thanks
