ARCHIVE What would you bring back from Japan for your 100 series?

[cruzerDave]

I have a brand new OEM grille and a very rare Lund aluminum Billet Grille insert both for a 2001 LX 470, if it can help in anyway to make a old style grille?

Thanks, I'm trying to wrangle an old/used one in case it gets damaged along the way.

I have an OEM grille off my '00 LC if that would be helpful to you

PM sent

Somebody please make those light buckets.

Looking in to it, but if anyone else wants to take it on happy to buy from them too

If anyone can send me a light bucket it would be very helpful?

Also, anyone know what lamp/bulb we would want to use? Theirs was a Japanese brand and I prefer something I can buy easily here.

Suspect they are using a standard aftermarket 7" Jeep headlight. Many inexpensive aftermarket options for these in Halogen, Xenon, and LED.

What if you built buckets for the new Tacoma. You would sell them by the boatloads.

This could finance the small number of 100 series buckets we need.

Brilliant idea and you're totally right... except then I would never have time to get to building them for MY rig and that sorta defeats the whole point of this side business for me

You nailed it @abuck99, except a japan-only (left-hand drive) IPF unit which wouldn't work here. I'll move fwd with accepting std 7" housings and keep the cost down.

I have a donor grill on the way from @TheForger, thank you!

Any one with a light bucket? I've got time, this is going to be an October/November project...
