I also have what I think to be the third generation bar - I have pulled the indicators / parkers out as the bar is going away for colour coding.
I'll measure up the dimensions of the housing and the locations of the holes and post it up tomorrow - I was hoping that these would fit but can't be sure until I get the measuring tape out.Pitbull - 2003 4.0L V6 Prado Grande.

Thanks 1CB, I was watching these while looking for an exact fit - they are pretty close though so if I can't find something else I will pick them up and report back on how they fit up.Pitbull - 2003 4.0L V6 Prado Grande.

I emailed the seller and he replied: "Light is mounted by removing the backing plate from the light. You then mount the backing plate with self tappers provided. Light is then clipped back into place."

I've just upgraded my lights to the same LED lights shown here. Yes, the holes dont go all the way through so I made up some simple brackets to make it all work. Note: I glued a nut to the inside of the backing plate that allowed me to fix the bracket to the plate with a short M6 screw.
p.s. Sorry about the blurry image, they looked ok on the iPhone screen when I took them, but you get the idea.

I got mine through a vendor on N, N, N , can't say that word here but it ends in Patrol4x4.com. Unfortunately he's not around anymore so I suggest have a search on fleabay as I'm sure they'll be around. Mine haven't failed to date and were a simple solution to dealing with blown bulbs all the time...

Next job is to replace the IPF fog light with an LED DRL. Does anybody have pictures of how the IPF fogs are mounted?[url=http://www.myswag.org/index.php?topic=12264]My Prado[/url]
