  • retro upgrades

    Hi all, I am new to this site even though I have been a member for some time have only written 1 post before with little feed back so I am having another go.
    I have a Prado Grande 2005 1kz-te , what i would like to know is:
    1. Can I retro fit a updated steering wheel to accommadate hands free with stereo and bleutooth,
    2. Can I fit seat warmers to the front seats,
    3. Upgrade my Alternator from 90 amps to 120 amps.

    Any feedback will be greatly appriciated.

    1. My steering wheel does not control the phone and Bluetooth, that's done through the radio. I can adjust volume etc. if yours has a air bag you would be better to leave it alone.
    2. Seat warmers?
    3. 120 amp is just a higher maximum out put and as long as it is the same size it will bolt in. Do you have a lot of accessories using or needing power?

      Seat warmers???? Just joking bluesman. I hate them but the missus bought an after market Waeco one. I dont see why not, you may even be able to use the electric seat wiring harness for the drivers side
