          Yeah I believe they're all hand aimed then laser cut, and with many things hand done, there's always going to be inaccuracies. Great plates nonetheless!

          oh and are you Anthony on the Facebook Prado pages btw?

          • Fitted some new brake pads today. The originals lasted 6 years, the RDA I fitted lasted 2 years and I could never get rid of the brake squeal. I fitted Bendix 4wd today so hopefully they last a bit longer and don't make any noise.

            Interestingly the rear pads were down to the wear indicators and the front pads were around 50%. I expected the wear to be opposite...

                    • Made the new lightbar all legal by wiring the 12v input to the switch to the highbeams instead of 12v constant. Btw, my car was +ve switched. High beam wire was red with white stripe. I tapped into it in the drivers side kick panel.

                      • AC fan only working on high so pulled out the resistor, cleaned up and tested. Only missing lowest speed now but will get a new one soon as it is very badly corroded.
