Wasn't it the case that the GX used to look like the current "standard" model? Then the GX received some upgrades like the flared guards etc not that long ago. I assume the original 120 GX model had the pushbutton remote?
I heard too that the standard model was produced after it became clear that the mining sector began using Prado's as work vehicles. My girlfriend is a geologist and says that Prado's seem to be what the 4WD hire places in Kalgoorlie are renting out. Unless you need a trayback of course. With that in mind it's no wonder they are very basic as they'd get absolutely punished being used in mining.[b]#[/b] 2007 D4D GX [b]#[/b] Full Privacy Tint [b]#[/b] [color=#FF0000][b] Flinders Red [/b][/color] [b]#[/b] 2 x HID LightForce 240 Blitz [b]#[/b] ARB Winch Bar [b]#[/b] Alloy Rims [b]#[/b] Hilux Washer Jets [b]#[/b] Stebel Nautilus Compact Truck Horn [b]#[/b] ARB Alloy Roof Rack [b]#[/b] ARB Dual Battery System [b]#[/b] Charcoal Rough Country Canvas Seat Covers [b]#[/b] [color=#0000FF]Suspension:[/color]Autocraft Bilstein Shocks/Struts & Ridepro Coils [b]#[/b] [color=#0000FF]L.E.D[/color] Side Marker Lights [b]#[/b] ARB Onboard Air [b]#[/b] Pirelli Scorpion LT ATR 265/70's [b]#[/b][color=#0080FF]--Custom 3"exhaust---[/color]Comment

Fitting an aftermarket remote alarm/locking should be simple enough. I've done this on several cars with the same set up.Im looking at going down the path of fitting a remote set up to this setup....
Ive been told by the dealership that it is not possible/too hard..
I've always used gear from Jaycar. Good value for money.

Thanks Iron Paw,
Now I know why my old model GX looks like a standard...had a quick look at one in fremantle today. old gx tyres are 225 like the new standard where the new GX has 265 fitted, flares etc.
I wonder if the funds manager would go for an upgrade - I do like the look of the grandeLC 120 03 GX V6, Bonnet/Head light Protectors, Home Made Draws.Toyota Tow Bar.Cooper ATR 235/70/R17 RE+. Toyota Bullbar with fog light. Navra 150 Spot Lights.

Yeah that's right. The original 120GX's had the narrow tyres fitted because they didn't have the flared guards. You can however put on after-market flares that will allow the 265's to go on. They don't look too bad. The current GX's I think have received some of the features that the original 120 GXL's had. Not everything though. You still get the steel rims and basic stereo for example but that's easily fixed.
Geez a Grande over a GX will be a bit of a price rise! But heck.... you only live once....
