How to tell if it’s an LX model (1 Viewer)

[TFTS]

Looking at buying a 1982 FJ40. How do you tell if it’s an LX model?
It has the zebra forward facing seats with brown interior. It has 2 windscreen wipers. It is a 4 speed.
New to this.
Thanks

LX usually came with three wipers and forward facing rear seat.

Ask @cruiserdan to send you some pics of the LX at the heritage museum.

If this is in the Middle East it could be an LX. RHD had three wiper arm. LHD only had two. Also seen Middle East LX models later then 10/82 (starting date of the H55F five speed) with only a H41 four speed.

Looks like Adeline is in Victoria Australia. I show three wiper windshield starting in 1/82 on RHD. H41 would be standard even on a LX models made prior to 10/82. it would have LX emblems on both aprons behind the Toyota Land Cruiser emblem.

Hi all,
Thanks for your replies. Sorry I should have added more information. We are from Australia, it’s RHD. The trim code is: FD41. There is no emblem.
Is there any other checks we can do?

An Aus LX will have:

3 wipers

An LX badge on both front fenders

3 seats up front, all in zebra fabric.

2 zebra seats in the back with one 'captains' chair with an armrest.

Brown vinyl floor, brown plastic trim, brown window winders and door openers. Brown astro turf/fake grass in the rear.

Japanese and Middle East LX's were a bit different. If you live in Aus I doubt it is an import.

2 LX's

Mine is the yellow one, any questions let me know!

It looks like some Aus LX’s had two wipers. See photos in this old scan that I have of an ’82 Aus LX:

I have the same brochure printed off on my shed wall.

I've always thought it a bit strange. It's missing the LX badges and the third wiper. Looks more like a Jap LX. It also has steel split rims when LX were chrome. Its not adding up.
