Okay, I'm definitely set for this then. Finally got around to picking up my E-Toll tag. I don't know if I'll even need it, but it's there just in case.

On a side note, I like the design of the newer transponder. Fits in much neater than what the previous one would have:

God it's getting close now, just a handful of weekends away!! I was just wondering if any of the Brisbane or Sydney crew, or anyone in Melbourne might have a CB handheld they'd be willing to let me borrow for the cruise on Sunday? It's just myself in my Cam so I'll have plenty of room for any passengers that want to tag along. I've been hunting & hunting for one and they're all over $100, and I'm just thinking it's something I probably won't have a use for again..Otherwise there is a Uniden (think its the U047 something) that I can get on Ebay for around the $70 mark and it's a 1 watt, so that should do the job.

I like the view of the TMCA car park, I bet everyone will be having a good gawk from the roads on the way past!

If you don't plan on talking to others with the CB and just want to listen in for anything important, those cheap 0.5 watt CB's will dot he trick and you can pick them up real cheap. I've got one in the car for that very reason. Though for this meet, I plan to try and borrow one from the office. We have a 3 watt one sitting there somewhere.

No worries, have been to D1ck Smith and all they have is the .05 watt in a twin pack for $60, or the 1 watt for $100. Going to go check out their website now. I'm thinking I'll just bite the bullet and get one off Ebay, I can't see myself sitting there listening to it all and not participating hahah

Ahh my bad BKS, spose that's the only thing about the top down views. It'll all be a new area of Melbourne for me so am looking forward to seeing it all.

hi Guys,

After a bit of thought and some careful persuation, i've found a new Venue for our show and shine competition.

The guys at Brighton Toyota, have agreed to let us use their service carpark and under cover area for the afternoon!

This allows us to have facilities available, and also if we do want a wonder around some new cars, we can.... there happens to be a Lexus Dealership atached to the complex.

The new Address for the Show and Shine is...

77 Nepean Highway,

Elsternwick,

Brighton Toyota Contact Details and Map.

This will however be one of the busiest days for the Dealership, and they have asked that if any Sales Staff approach you for business you please inform them immediately that you are there for the show and are happy just admiring the cars.... unless you are genuinely interested in a new car.

      Removing low beam bulb 2014 Camry

      I apologise if this is an idiotic question--I've searched and watched dozens of videos on how to replace a burnt out bulb, and i'm fine with it (i've even done it before, though it was years ago). the problem is that I can't seem to get the bulb out of the 'plug'/base--it seems that that is too blindingly obvious to be explained or shown on camera. I can't remember what I did last time I replaced a bulb... I don't know if I have to push something on the fitting to release it, if i have to twist it, or just yank really hard. I've applied as much strength as I dared, but am afraid of breaking something if i try to brute force it out. I could just pay $15 for someone at supercheap to pop it out and replace it for me but it's become a matter of principle at this point... I'm unwilling to admit defeat. The photos below are from a different post on this forum, but they're the same exact kind of bulb/fitting i'm struggling with... Any tips would be much appreciated. My wife is getting really annoyed with me because we can't drive at night but i'm too stubborn to pay $15. Thanks!

      Aftermarket Air Intake

      Hey all, Just recently bought a 2007 TRD Aurion and am trying to find an aftermarket Air Intake, but am coming to the realisation that there is a very limited market for TRD Aurions. So far the only system I've been able to find is a K&N Typhoon Intake (link here: https://www.carmodsaustralia.com.au/KN-Filters-69-8611TS-69-Series-Typhoon-Performance-Air-Intake-System-Camry-35L-07-11?cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=18898892770&cq_con=&cq_term=&cq_med=pla&cq_plac=&cq_net=x&cq_plt=gp&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwpZWzBhC0ARIsACvjWRP893VLnAQsxIZJjcW5Go75b_T2N25rSWBVu6IeDziM2v41bpeyOREaAg1fEALw_wcB), however when viewing specifications for the product it states it fits Camry's from 2007-2011. Further digging revealed this product is an import from the USA hence why it's for a Camry - they don't have Aurions there. I am aware that they both share the 2GR-FE engine so I'm assuming the product will be able to be retrofitted to my TRD, provided the throttle body intake is the same diameter across Supercharged 2GR-FE's and N/A 2GR-FE's. Has anyone else in Aus had any luck sourcing/fitting one of these K&N Intakes, or know of another brand that do them specifically for the TRD Aurion's. Pretty confident in just ordering the aforementioned kit but their return policy sucks (can't return and refund if packaging has been opened, etc). Cheers guys! Jason.

      Heater problems

      My Toyota Celica SX blows cold air at the driver’s side when the heater is on, and it is an absolute nuisance. I get that it takes a while for the heater to work properly, but some reason after I have the heater on, it starts blowing out cold air even after a good warm up! I feel like the heater core may need replacing or the air conditioner/heater needs re-gassing.

      Entertainment Unit Upgrade

      Hi everyone. Just after some advice on head unit upgrade. I'm looking to upgrade the functionality of the entertainment system to do a few things - display my dual camera from my caravan, utilise the HEMA OnRoad/OffRoad module, stream to the rear screens, and include wireless apple play. I've narrowed down to the most popular which seems to be Advanced Ice, EC Offroad and Galios - but none seem to do all four functions seamlessly. Not sure if I'm actually looking for a unicorn or not...has anyone had any experience in installing one of these systems and has it done all the functions? Any regrets? Cheers Mark

      KUN26R Hilux Single Cab - Tray to Tub

      Hi everyone, I own a 2011 Toyota Hilux KUN26R. It currently has a tray. I am looking for a single cab tub (image for reference below). I have a couple of questions for everyone: - Were KUN26R's ever released in Australia with a single cab tub as an option? I have looked high and low over all sorts of marketplaces within Australia and honestly cannot seem to find one. I don't believe I have ever seen one on the streets of Aus either. - Does anyone have experience making this conversion? Where can I find a tub? I have found some examples of the style side single cab KUN26R's in the UK, EU, Africa and Thailand but in all instances it has been part of a whole car sale and the sellers have not been willing to part out. Even so, if there is the chance that I can buy this tub in Australia it would be much better as it would save the hassle of organising freight. Thanks everyone in advance. I'm jealous of overseas countries who seem to have gotten this model in abundance.

      1993 Corolla Seca CSI limited

      1993 CSI limited Corolla Seca hatchback 80k kms. We are the second owner and have complete service and maintenance records of the car from new. Previously owned from new by older lady who rarely drove the car in the final years. Very neat and tidy vehicle. Unfortunately another vehicle has reversed into the car and their towball caused some damage to radiator, air con system and fan. The right person could easily fix the vehicle. We are just not in a financial position to do this. We cannot bear to send the car to salvage so posting here in hope that another Toyota enthusiast is interested incontinuing the life of the car. These cars are much loved and we have loved our “Beryl” during her time with us. Please feel free to ask questions. Open to offers above $3k
