@desertwampa I believe what @mudgudgeon is saying is welcome to mud (obligatory MUD new member welcome sign). This forum is one of the most extensive collections of not only fixes for your beloved new vehicle but a treasure trove of accessory bolt on or do it yourself glory that not to search first would be a mortal sin punishable by banishment To Pirate 4x4. Or just more good natured ribbing. Please take my comments with a small amount of teasing and a large amount of respect for the decision you made to purchase an amazing vehicle that already has a lot of baselining done. I personally look forward to seeing your journey outlined in the MUD threads.

Yes, it was the long winded way of saying "search newb ".

For example type cup holder into search, you get 50 pages of search results.

You were being nice. I respect that. I had some time so I thought I’d throw out the welcome and say things people said to me a million years ago when I was that newbie. Ah, to be just getting into Land Cruisers now…..

Welcome. BH3D makes nice cup holders for the stock console. Delta Vehicle Systems makes a bolt in console and shifter surround option.

@desertwampa All this info regarding accessories is on the forum many times over. Also every thread you have started in the last few months has also been discussed in the past and can be found by doing some searches on the forum or google that will already lead you to the forum. Wear out the search functions and I give it a 99.5% chance you'll find all of the answers you're looking for without being spoon fed.

If you don't like my thread then just move on. If it's sooooooooooo arduous and tedious for you to offer valuable input, then don't.

I do alot of searching on here. If I ask a question it's because I didnt find an answer in my search, or 8 want current info, ir dont wanna be buried in some thread from 2 years ago. Get off yoir high horse. People like you make forums miserable with your stupid "search button" gatekeeping.

Central Vacuum System

What IS this?

I am importing a HDJ81 from Japan and looking through the pics of the vehicles going to auction, I keep seeing this box mounted to the side of the hump, right where the passenger right foot is. Anyone know? P.S. I tried to upload the pic twice, don't know if it loaded, or not?!?

interior mods consist of bh3d cupholders, front and rear (with blue sea panel add on for rear email him for availability) touch screen radio with carplay, and tpms/tire temp/voltage plug in the cig outlet. led bulb replacement in shifter, led overhead and door light bulbs, weather tech floor mats in front, rear quarter panel cubby insert delete. 3rd and 2nd row seat and seat belt delete. i have an orangebox fab molle panel for rear slider window, but would recommend a different brand. oh and of course the best mod, 12v fridge!

That's one I missed. Love it! Anyone have any luck sourcing one of these or have part #s?

For the OP, my current thread on replacing my wrecked 80 while outfitting an LX to replace it has a lot of somewhat quirky mods, mostly interior.
From Misfortune to Light of a New Day: Setting Up the Replacement Truck - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/from-misfortune-to-light-of-a-new-day-setting-up-the-replacement-truck.1326951/

Not yet in the thread yet are some of the Solve Function cupholders from Outsane en route right now, along with his data clock. Would've been here yesterday, but the PO sat on them in San Francisco for 3 days after predicting they'd be here on the 13th. Kind of hard to accomplish that when they don't leave SF until the 12th and have to fly into the weather we're getting right now. Suppose will be here Tuesday, no fault of Outsane.

I know some will poke fun and others will provide examples. I personally enjoy when people post up what accessories that they have done over the years and you never know what creative things you have not seen before.

Corbeu Baja suspension seats
Rear seat covers from Marathon
Delta center console with cup holders front and back
BH3D front console cup holders and GMRS mounted to that so I am not drilling into my factory plastics
Wit's End ashtray delete for a switchpro
Land Cruiser Phil shifter extension (Just because it's cool)
Australian door cards-ABS door cards which I mounted better leather to and speaker pods to enhance sound
Rear delta ceiling storage rack which I mounted some wakeboard speakers to as our speakers in the 80's suck
Spiker engineering mount for the scangauge (Works amazing and is in clear view)

Wait till he sees the Emu window sills and center console cover...

 

[Rusty Marlin]

@Hornd, what? You thought I was kidding?

And the cup holders are a nice touch too.

 

[Hornd]

Even the Center Console in Gucci Ostrich to Match the Shifter.
All the Razzle-Dazzle.
