I recently purchased and installed an aftermarket steering wheel from Ebay on my 100. Had wheels from this seller on a couple of my old 4th gen 4runners, which is effectively the same steering wheel, so knew I liked the fit/finish and build quality. Those were black however, so much easier to...

Hey all, just installed a Jensen CAR1013 unit in my 1998 LC. For those of you with non-navigation systems this is a great option IMO. The screen is 10.1” so it fits the size of the vehicle better and it articulates for different viewing angles. Bought it through Crutchfield and they were great...

I have a 2004 LX470 with an error prone OEM MFD panel. I think it has the Pin #60 issue and the LCD screen has streaks in it. I am wondering if it would make sense to install an aftermarket panel. I have been in contact with Phoenix in California but I haven't received any useful information to...

So I bought a refurbished OEM steering wheel but never have been a fan of a 20+ yo airbag in my face as I drive. So that lead me down a rabbit hole while down with a bad pain and on pain killers. I started off with buying an adapter that worked but lost cruise control. I have never really...

From another thread. Does anyone know why can't I find any aftermarket wheels for LC200 vehicles that has this offset, besides the OEM Tundra/LC/LX wheels that has stock-ish offset? The closest I have find is Evo Corse Dakar, that has +45mm but it should work. I would get the HE wheels if...

Who on mud is the recommended person to send a 2f carburetor to rebuild? Cost? or is it better to just buy a good aftermarket one like at cityracer? I am not sure mine is worthy of rebuilding but it is a oem carb. I started taking it apart but its a little out of my depth. here are some...

Got a '73 FJ40 that is sagging in the rear. This is due to moving the gas tank to the rear, a heavy rear bumper, tire hanger and spare tire. Adding up all of this extra weight is roughly 350 pounds. I was looking at some of the aftermarket airbag kits and wondered if anyone had ever done...

Can anyone provide the inner oval cutout dimensions for this aftermarket grill? I want to keep the radar cruise and want to see if there's any possibility of the Lexus logo cruise badge of fitting the height dimension.

I had my power steering pump replaced and it had a tapping sound that wasnt there before the leaky one was replaced. The mechanic said it was because I used an aftermarket pump so I paid the big bucks and purchased an OEM power steering pump and now I have the same annoying tapping noise. What...

The previous owner cut these bumper mounts (which I think are called frame horns?). I was planning to get an aftermarket bumper at some point because this custom bumper that was on it when I bought it doesn’t tick all the boxes for me. Will this cut cause problems with installation? I’ve been...
