What mounts/adapters are used to mount the lights low on the rack like that? I have only found the mounts that put the lights flush with the top of the rack which is higher than what I would like.

I have searched but not seen any solid feedback. Any takes on why I see so many LX470 with 300-400k still running fine, up for sale. I see little to no GX470s in that same mileage up for sale. I have owned both models and had more issues with the GX than I have with the LX. Same engine...

For audio sake has anyone ever tried putting a single din in the console to replace the 6 disc changer and run all wires to it. They all come with remotes today so you wouldn’t exactly need to see the unit and almost everyone plays music off of their cell phone these days via Bluetooth. I...

Update. I tried brazing it myself multiple times but it would always have a small leak to it. After repeatedly heating it up and trying to rebraze it the original hole on the base metal kept getting bigger and bigger, now it’s garbage. Looks like I’m going to have it replaced. Learned a...

It was too close to the low pressure port and ended up blowing the interior elements of the port out. The aluminum rods didn’t fully adhere to the ac line either. Either way I have to replace the whole section unless there is a way to replace the interior elements of the Low pressure port and...

thank you for the recs, I’m going to buy the aluminum rods, flux and torch and try to braze it myself. I will report back how it goes.

Ok guys I’m new to 100s and only owned a few 80s in years past, I have searched and only found answers related to the read ac leaking ect. I purchased a 2003 lx470 with 230k on the clock. I looked at undercarriage and general inspection of the engine but flat out missed the big hose hanging on...

Is there anyone in the Dallas Ft worth are willing (paid of course) to install one of these for me or know of an audio shop competent enough to do it? I know it will be expensive but if I do it I’ll end up paying more in the long run. I would like to update my 2003 lx470 and go all out with...

Sorry to bring back an old thread but how did you guys get that amp out from under the dash? I pulled both the plastic and metal covers off to find the AC ducting still in the way. When I try to put in a socket or any other tool I can get it to move enough to do anything. Any tips on getting...

I see that drivers side rear cladding is still on in the pics posted. I’ll take that off your hands if you will allow it.

Hello, I have never had any over heating issues with my 80 until today. The AC went out then noticed it was over heating, I put 2 gallons of water in it since I was out running errands when it hit. The water runs straight through and comes out up high under the intake manifold, I cant see...

And magically the sound stopped when I came back from vacation. I think I soaked the interior and caused some issues that just needed to dry out. I appreciate all of your replies though.

Are these the tabs that can be replaced or part of the cladding is breaking off? I appreciate you even considering it.

My cladding on rear driver side fender well decided to pop off on a 75 in the middle of Dallas and didn’t want to die trying to retrieve it. So I’m in the market for some cladding if you want to part with yours. I didn’t see anything with a search that’s recent for sale. I like the look of...
