Yeah Joel I did my camera as well but I need to move the camera. I have located it directly above the towball on the little bit of black plastic that they cut out for the tongue so you hardly see it, but as its the same level as the tow ball I cant see past the towball for distance (its fine other wise) but i need to see from higher as I cant judge the distance between the ball and what ever Im reversing up to. Going to be a pain as i have to remove all the trims again write upto the dash and rerun it above number plate like yours and through the rubber factory loom from the door to the body, will be a pain but will be better vision. At the moment its still great to make sure no little ones behind me although I extremely careful of this anyway. I dont just rely on the camera...Cheers Steve

aah tell me about it ! i pulled all the trims off and ran the power cables and camera video cable, but my cable was a 6 core so its got a few spare in there. The most annoying bit was running the cable through the grommet between the door and chassis, i ran cable though like 5 times as i forgot something or had it ran incorrectly was so annoying haha, but finally for it sorted and will do some more of the work tomorrow before i head back to work. Luckily for me i am the only one who drives the car so i have all the trims off atm so i dont have to remove and replace all the time !
Cheers Joel

Booked my new to me rear wheel carrier in for a respray and got the fitting instructions as well. Pity I have to wait 2 months to get the respray. Seems everyone in Adelaide is crashing their car and causing all the crash repairers in the North East to be booked out.04 GXL - Red Centa dual battery, Alloy B/bar, BFG AT's, Rhino Rack commercial bars x 3, GME TX3540, TJM roof cage, Outback Ideas recovery points, LHS rear drawer, 2" Dobinsons/Bilstein lift, ARB CKMA12 air compressor, CoilRite airbags, ARB 2.5m awning, MCC Dual Wheel Carrier, Eagle Eye headlights with 55w hid lo beam.

Fitted all new ARB underbody bash plates last week and yesterday picked up my new bash plate for the centre fuel tank. The Toyota one was not much use and they wanted $980 for a new (tin) one... stuff that. Went to a sheet metal place and had a new 2mm steel bash plate made. Have just finished painting it and will fit it tomorrow. Yeha. (oh, have also ordered an Eatons E Locker for the front of the Prado, should be done In a couple of weeks).

Got my 120K service. Surprise, surprise - they actually pulled the injectors and did a valve check! Even replaced the seals (sheets). They also replaced the front diff plug because it was a bit chewed up - they're (Toyota) the only buggers who have touched that part anyway.Dave
