Being new to the forum,I bought a fixer upper 100 series land cruiser.
277800 miles.
I have just completed a water pump and timing belt job.
This forum has so far been very helpful for me,i had only one nasty thread reply.

My next question is who would you lot recommend to replace the fake wood trim in the 100 series?

I'd just remove it, but then again I've left mine like yours is currently and never notice it now that my seats have gotten tears which distract me 🙂
 
Yea, find a soft plastic scraping tool and pick a hot day in the sun. Sweat it out and gently pry is off in little parts. Rubbing alcohol should then remove the adhesive. Ebay has lots of kits to replace it in endless color choices. Some prefer them left off. It depends on the truck and your preference. NOTE: they are kind of rubbery and not easy to install if you are not caution, patient, and like to move slow during application.
 
Another vote for just remove them because it looks better. Earlier this summer on a hot day my trim started peeling up, so I helped it out. Center console took some effort and I didn't get it all off under the aux power, but then this past weekend I was cleaning things and remembered that the whole console from cupholders-forward pops out stupid easily, so now it's finally trim-free. My first choice to remove any adhesive residues is to use the adhesive itself to "stick to itself" and pull it off without any solvents, but luckily the stuff Toyota used comes off pretty easily.
