    GX460 tapping 12V for additional socket to rear - 400W inverter relay inside engine bay?

    In the engine bay I see a "slot" marked 400W inverter. What's this? I am wondering if its good to pull ignition controlled 12V 20A from this. Is the pin live when car is on? I was thinking of using the SPDT relay, and tapping off the battery if this pin is not feasible. In that case, where...

    Lexus GX 470 - Roof rails vs Cross bars

    I see a lot of people attaching cross bars to their Roof rails (Factory rails) and then attaching tents and stuff to the cross bars.

    Water ingress with step removal in GX 470

    I checked the side steps, and it seems that the upper part acts as a seal for water ingress. This is the reason why many people cut their steps instead of removing them. I am wondering, if I trim the steps, can I attach sliders without removing them? I do not want to lose the water proofing...
