A colour coded TJM T13 bar was fitted to my new Prado today at TJM. I will be raising the following issues with the store manager tomorrow.
1. Warn winch was being fitted and apparently now doesn't work. I bought it new 2 years ago and used it once. Was removed from my last Prado and is in perfect condition! I'm sure they didn't earth the solenoid or something.
2. My wife took the Prado to get the bar fitted. I would assume that she would inspect prior to paying; apparently not!
3. The bar appears to be uneven measured from the eyebrows/bodywork:
Left side
Forward gap 19 mm
Height gap. 19.5 mm
Right side
Forward gap 9 mm
Height gap 16 mm
4. The paint thickness is inconsistent and ranges from 140um to 300um. The paint finish is rough in some areas.
5. One of the plastic shroud clips from on top of the radiator was broken and reinstalled without repair or replacement;
I am posting this so others are aware of possible installation issues to address with their installers prior to their bars being fitted.
