    Not sure. The body part would work for the lower end, the one where the handle is may not. When I mounted mine horizontaly I used some synch straps I had screwed down to top of my drawers. I have the Slee ARB mount now on my bumper

    All the hvac buttons work. I havent tested that one specifically as it was close to 100 deg yesterday :) None of these work with the rear entertainment system

    I followed your instructions and it said it imported them, but they were not there when I connected. It won't let me import while connected. In Importing it wanted to delete or overwrite the existing dashboards which to me seemed like the same...

    The Airbag light came on. The instructions said it might and gave me a cable to add. I should have just installed it when everything is apart

    The TPMS pressure data is in OBD Fusion though it's in kPa, not PSI. But it also has tire temp data which is cool!

    Te unit does not come with an OBD app, but does come with a dongle. I did download the OBD Fusion app with the special add on for my 2014 200 series @linuxgod what key things should I have on the dashboard? I added one engine oil temp and both...

    I had a few issues. Mostly due to mating the wrong connectors. You have to really look at the instructions and the wires that come out of the connectors they highlight. I had several configuration changes to make the cameras work. @re500 these...

    Geoff, glad the path forward is defined.

    I had the same question. I asked and was told the price includes a new torque converter. Not sure if it’s included in the part # listed online but it’s included in the job

    My unit shipped and was delayed in customs awaiting mnny ciontribution to the Presidents Tariff fund (No political responses), I had to pay $466 or it would get sent back to Perth. Factor that into your cost. Pretty fast shipping though :)...

    Yup, I've used the exhaust/air jacks a great deal in different environs, particularly those where they excel... sand and snow. I still carry one when doing big snow or dunes trips. I don't believe jacks are a one-trick pony, i.e. there isn't a...

    I browsed through a bit and didn't see a lot of technical comments. I have extensive experience supercharging Tundras and a couple LX570s. My personal Tundra has 305k on it and been running a TRD supercharger the last 90k. You have a variety of...

    Yea I agree it’s not light. Dissent has provisions to mount it on a swing out. Check out stellar’s “corporate cruiser” project with a pro eagle jack.

    Another thing is that if you have more than 1 cameera, you need to plug the white connector into the Blue slot. I had this issue with EC Off Road radio in 2020 and Vhedia says the same thing in their stuff. I ended up ordering one of the Vhedia...

    I should clarify, if you are comfortable with carrying the Badlands Jack and have a way to secure it and don't mind lifting it in and out (its heavy-72lbs) than this would be superior and safer to the ARB/Mojab Hydrolic Jack The Hydrolic Jacks...

    I also have this jack. It is awesome. I didnt want to carry it around in the truck though. I have seen people make cases and it would be a great jack to use off road. Much safer than the Hi-Lift and ARB. My not wanting to carry it is a...

    Not only flat repair, but recovery on loose/irregular surfaces is also aided by the X-Jack. Even in snow. For those of us without side rails or custom bumpers, the X-Jack is really helpful. It's also light and relatively compact - fits easily...

    I had one and didnt like it. Sold it after using it once. Don't remember specifically what I didnt like about it, just that I didnt. It was about 15 years ago :)
