    The leather is the most disappointing thing on my Kakadu, it's cr@p basically. Only the inserts/facings are leather, the sides and back are vinyl. Yes there a "wetseat" covers available and canvas ones also.

    No headlight protectors? I'd rate those as more important than the bonnet protector.

    Congrats on the purchase. How long have they quoted you?

    • Interesting comments regarding the leather/vinyl...

      For some reason I haven't used headlight protectors for some years so thought i'd run the gauntlet. On my last car i didn't have the bonnet protector initially, however within the first week i had a chip right where the protector would go :cry:

      At this stage they've quoted end of May as a worst case however they are hoping to firm this up over the next day or so.

        Check this link. Most cars use man made leather.

        Personally I like taxi vinyl type.

          They're so unnecessary on the prado. One of the sales pitches I got when buying mine was taking to the lights with a hammer.

            I agree Wooley...

            The headlight protectors were really only good for the older cars that still ran the glass headlight.

            • Well I've noticed some big scratches on my headlights and thought for the sake of $60 (got mine from Autobarn) I may as well cover them. I assumed the headlights had glass lenses on them. Is that not correct?

              • One of my head light protectors got smashed by a big rock thrown up by a truck. There's no way it wouldn't have at least badly scratched the headlight with out a protector.

                • Headlights are polycarbonate. Don't think they have been using glass for many years. Not saying they unbreakable, but they will take a huge hit. They will scratch but you can polish out minor scratches

                    • Waks,

                      Yes drive-away price - NSW - 2013 build and complied. Biggest issue at the moment is the dealer is now quoting delivery mid-late June

                              Must be quite advanced in features given the year model. What happens when you hit 88MPH? What fuel powers the propulsion device?
