alarm for Hiace
I have had my Hiace for a year now. Im looking into wiring in an alarm however I have no idea where to find the right cables I need to tap in to and redirect them to the alarm. can somebody please help me with maybe a guide or wiring diagram. im looking into the mongoose alarm with gps tracker. I supposes I need to find the cables that go to the indicators, door contact switches, ignition, fuel pump, acc, ect... It would also be great to know about all the spare connectors behind the dash board for aux switches as I have noticed them all around the van in odd locations and wondering if they are connected to the acc to uses as a relay coil to switch contracts. -

Toyota 2006 Kluger Grande 3.5 L - at about 55kph vibration
Control arm bushing won't induce vibrations but more of a knock when jostled. -

Stedi H11 Projector LEDs
Yes I agree 100%. The locking tabs are a PITA to engage. If there was a safe way to remove that single skin of metal behind each headlight it would give a bit more wiggle room. I can't see how it would affect the structural integrity. -

Stedi H11 Projector LEDs
I have done the same when replacing the parking bulbs. However, I not fully removed the plastic inner wheel guard. Instead I have removed just the front retaining clips and pulled back the inner guard for enough working space. I went and had another look at the passenger side headlight bulb. I manage working above and to one side when replacing the headlight bulb. Certainly thought a few times about removing the battery [but not yet done] for more room when replacing the passenger side headlight bulb. For myself, the main issue has been seating the bulb properly in the headlight housing and engaging the locking tabs.- 1

Bluetooth connects, disconnects, over and over.
I have started having an issue with the Bluetooth in my 2011 Yaris. When I first start the car, bluetooth connects to my phone, but only for a few seconds before it disconnects again. It does this over and over. Sometimes when I notice that it has just connected, I can start to play something on my phone (music) and it'll then stay connected. But the chance of doing this only happens after four or so times that it's gone through the connect/disconnect cycle. Has anyone experienced this? Is there some solution? Thanks. -

Tyres- 2020 2wd hybrid
Looking for recommendations/suggestions for replacing Bridgestone OEM tyres. Still legal at 53k kms but probably won't get to 60k. Am tending towards Khumo Crugen. Did more than 70k kms on our 2017 Sportage. Thanks in advance. -

2022 RAV4 Hybrid tow bar
Is it 2WD or 4WD. If it's 2WD I wouldn't bother. 400kg Max towing capacity. That's 40kg tow ball downweight. (Toyotas best kept secret). Essentially rules out an ebike carrier. Add one ebike eg and you'll be over. Found out after purchase. So this means if we go on holidays and want to take our bikes: one e; one conventional then we have to take my FG ute. It's more comfortable actually but twice the fuel and the dogs hate it behind the seats:) If it's 4Wd forget what I just said. -
