My bulb was fine on a 237k mi LX. I did the switch on top the transfer case. If you have a ratchet that fits it just right, it might be easier than replacing a light in the dash. I have a thread bookmarked somewhere for the CDL light switch. I can get you the exact listing on amazon too if you...

@Hoserock it looks like SS86HF model number safari snorkel supports antennas. It appears to be that SS85HF No antenna indent, US air box SS86HF Antenna indent, US air box SS86HP Antenna indent, round (non-us) intake. Source: Thread 'Is there a new Safari Snorkel design'

Interested. Sending a DM.

If you hadn't already seen it, you want the repair manual. It should be in the Resources section of this site. For the 2005 Lexus LX470 manual, page SA-153 has the "control valve assembly." Download the repair manual pdf, open it up, ctrl-f (find/search), type in that keyword and you'll get...

Sweet, hope it works well for you. I got cold feet when I considered how I could spend that on spark plugs, brakes, or any other parts that I hadn't checked yet. Send a pic of how it works out for you.

Ah yeah, I was speaking of the plain unit that injects the phone output, but there's also the whole deal with apple carplay taking over your screen. My set up is GROM wire loom piggy backs the cd plug, GROM USB computer box, Grom aux adapter, aux goes into phone. If I switch to AM/FM I can get...

Alternative is to get a GROM computer thingy that tucks in the dash and matches the factory wiring. It injects your phone signal to the CD input I think. Searching GROM Aux or GROM bluetooth on amazon will find what you want.

Gamiviti has options on their website. I looked into this a while back. I know for sure there's one for 80/20 aluminum extrusions. Edit: Gamiviti stock rail wing bracket

Keep in mind that if companies outsource manufacturing, it's not uncommon for the manufacturer to start selling the design as their own. So it could be that Dobinsons had this manufactured, then the manufacturing company undercut them. Of course there would still be a markup from Dobinsons or...

I think you're on track with the internal leaking. Though I have almost no experience with AHC... interested to hear what you find.

Do all the same lamps stay when the truck is running? My 05 (stock) shows the lamps while the key is on and the engine is off. That might be a stupid question though. I don't have enough familiarity with the dash to do anything other than speculate. Sounds like something you'd have to start...

Thanks for the before and after... I think mine is looking more like before than after. Guess I'll have to keep an eye on it. I assume "after" is at idle?

For reference, the windshield switched from bronze tint to green tint for 2004 and the rain sensing wiper was allegedly re-tuned. Source: Slee website 100 series guide.

Has an alignment been done? I'd highly recommend looking at the 1-page "100 Series AHC Cheat Sheet" by YotaMD. It's got the quick and easy on height and pressure adjustment. Found the link: AHC Info - https://www.yotamd.com/blogs/news/ahc-info

I'm not sure whether the Safari airmax requires modification, and I haven't put a snorkel on my truck, but I saw this one here on mud that is already molded for the antenna: Thread 'The new adventure rig, a 2004 LX470 - "Bruiser the Cruiser"'...
