Its been a fun project. I love doing these kinds of fun new mods. I was pretty confident it was gonna be doable based on other 120 concersions and the fact that the Prado side trims are all the same and the Tesla screens fit all the same. I'm so glad it worked out though since I cut my dash. Of course it's a cracked dash that never got replaced....
An evening shot:

Any update on it being able to display in freedom units?
Looks great, but what does that graph actually display?I have it in my Prado and installed it myself. Was expensive as fuuuu for the "computer" portion but as that link shows you, it's totally plug and play with some minor dash cutting (hobby knife will get it done in mins)
I looooooove having all that info on display so despite the cost, I think it was totally worth it.

BTW, there is room to run lines behind it so I might eventually modify the shroud for mounting some hardware like a radar detector or even just power cables for accessories.
Might be a dumb question, but what is that graph actually displaying?
Oh, now I get it. Thanks for the info. I’m going to keep my eye out for one.Graph shows delta over time/distance for whatever you've currently got selected to display. Heres a couple examples I took while I was travelling the last couple days. (Sorry, not the greatest, i was driving when i was thinking about it and the sun was shining pretty good. :-/ )
First one is "RANGE"

3- The field monitor top cover overlaps the dash middle speaker grill cover about 1/4". It fits well enough I wont be touching it, but one could trim one or the other and get them to fit perfectly.
Looking down into the dash speaker hole, speaker removed, you can see how far it extends into this space. A shallower/smaller speaker could possible work here:

So what/where is the factory speaker hitting? It is the connector for the multi display of is it the metal housing of the display itself? I'm very interested in this mod
I got my top cover and front trim through SSG.ASIA - AUTO SPARE PARTS ONLINE STORE | DUBAI, UAE. I can't remember exactly how much I paid... I'll check and post back up in a bit.
I spent many hours searching for a field monitor manual. Had a buddy that is fluent in Spanish looking for one on Spanish sites as well. Seems a lot of Latin American Prados got these units, in addition, mine came from Spain. That would be awesome if you found one @captainva !
Wow both covers are about $100 shipped on there. Thanks for the link!
I definitely found one. I'll upload it later tonight after I translate
