Brains TD 150 GXL

[Brains]

Derek,

The 150 is off getting the front bar repainted and side bars installed, should have it back tomorrow. Went to put it on my 120 but it has a different connector so will be putting it through its paces from tomorrow with a trip to Moreton island on the weekend to see how it goes. I'll have photos of the device and install, it's quite a small compact little unit. Will take the car for a run tomorrow night to test how it goes in all modes with the cruise control.
It's a pity that it doesn't fit the 120 as I've done about 2000klms in the last week.

Details about the Wind Booster are included in that thread.

Hi Brains, Have you tried the throttle controller yet, if so what do you think.

Cheers Derek

Hey brains

What camera did you use? And was there any additional wiring?

Thanks mate

Dixie,

I just used a front camera from eBay.

I have just seen this which might be a better option for the angle.

Wiring came with the camera I bought and just simply plugged in the video RCA's and soldered the power to the camera and the loom for the stereo.

Spent some time today installing the front camera.
I used a front camera shroud from the Kakadu through Toyota and a front camera from eBay. All up cost around $40 for the two items.

It's connected to the replacement Head Unit from Extreme Electronics. To get the front camera to show you just press the F-Cam button. To turn it off you press the button again. The camera gets a power feed from the head unit which only powers the camera when the button is pressed.

Very true about keeping the black clean.

Tent is the TJM Yulara.

Paul....

Just had a quick look through your post and the section where u removed the centre console causght my attention. I've been wanting to remove the top cover to access the wiring for the Cig Lighter but was never game enough in case I broke something.... I might have to come over sometime and get u to give me a few pointers on how to remove the cover plate

Hi Paul, Just a quick question. Are you still happy with your Ironman suspension and has it sagged at all yet? Also how many KMs have you done on it roughly? I am considering this setup for mine based on the price. Seems to be pretty good value.

While I'm at it had our yearly boys getaway, this year we went to Fraser Island, Here is what the Prado currently looks like parked at Eli Creek.

I've had a few requests for photos of the wet seats so here they are.

Very nice there Brains, that cam looks factory fit

Thanks fourbyfour, try to keep everything neat and factory looking. Makes it easy when you can buy the Camera shroud from Toyota then just pop riveted it in place once I had mounted the camera.

Hi Brains,

Do you know if it would be possible to add a front camera onto the standard GXL Headunit. I'm very interested in this Mod.

Regards Gordon

With a bit of wiring I think you would be able to using the post on switching your reverse camera and maybe using a video switch. Anything is possible.
