Its been a couple of months since I installed mine on my '08, purchased directly from aliexpress.com - 16" screen.
Good:
- Very good fit
- Works with steering controls
- Lower vents and rear AC controls keep working
- Installed 360 camera with reverse camera; works great even with turn signals...
For a 2008, the driver side glass is shattered; ordered one thru Amazon, they sent incorrect model; ordered another one thru RockAuto; and again; incorrect one sent!
AutoZone has one listed; at this point my trust is eroded.... Has anyone sourced one successfully?
Thank you.
So, I ordered the 3" incorrectly; my bad; for "testing" purposes I had the spacers machined down as MSCruiser indicated and installed over a set of new OEM shocks; after all the adjustment possible camber was .25" positive on the left side and .50" on the right tire, I got a hold of a set of...
Just installed the 16" screen sourced thru AliExpress (link) in my '08; I believe it is the same as the phoenix one; or at least it looks the same in form and function.
Dash Vents Controls = Works.
No way of connecting rear DVD Player.
No available DVR Front camera yet.
Im still playing with...
Well, just to follow up; just installed a set of OEM front shocks (48510-60230) listed for 2016-2018 models into a 2008 200 Series; direct fit, same measurements all over; no issues encountered.
End of report.
Update.
Its all 97% plug an play.
The '08 LC harness is all compatible with the '17 engine; everything plugs in except the oil level sensor in the upper oilpan; the tundra engine did not have the sensor available - we bypassed to avoid a code or warning light.
In the accessory side; I ended...
I was mistaken on the donor engine year; its a rolled '17 Tundra 4x4 with 27K miles; its on its way to the shop now; to be inspected and then purchased if everything checks up.
Wish me luck; don't really want to tear engines apart to make it compatible with my '08.
@TeCKis300 - Here we go Link
Well, seems this will be a first; Ill purchase the engine and start working on engine comparison and swap logistic.

I agree, block has little to no chance on being salvaged.
I read Tundra engines have slightly different heads and lower oilpan - Seems all sensor connections are similar.
So in the worse case I can swap the LC heads into the Tundra Block together with the lower oilpan.
Here we go...
Found what a good deal on a '08 Cruiser 2500mi away from me last December; less than 100K on the odometer, faded paint on hood, some interior wear and bumper rashes, nothing severe, price was less than 10K.
Driven all the way home with no issues; until a week ago; while passing a...
Are OEM shocks interchangable between years? I see several PN's for newer models in the Toyota part sites; but there not listed on Tokico Catalogue...
Thanks.

Here's the deal, I currently ride a 100 series, my new to me 200 series is on the paint shop (Super White color) and will be back soon so I can finish the build.
The 100 series rides in a set of Tundra TRD Pro's and 285's KO2; I wanted to duplicate the setup on the 200 series but just can get...
