also what did you use to mount the grill down either end as the original platic pull plugs were not long enough i used bolt and nut either end of the grill.

I used the the original mounting hardware which were two bolts that held the original grill in place. Maybe the Sportivo grill has different mounts.

Looks way better than stock tho.

Did you get from http://www.rstyleracing.com/?CategoryID=Ca...080120220806981 ???

Got any more links where they sell these online?

Thanks in Advance!

Yeah if you want the grill details how to order one from thailand email me at jason.bond1@hotmail.com. or There is a company selling them on ebay from coloundra qld, and there is a guy now and then who pops up on ebay now and then selling them.

If you get them from ebay your looking at $200.00+.

If you get them form thailand you are looking about $120 equiliant.

I have manged to locate some finer mesh sizes if people are intrested. from a mate he will get back to me with some prices.

Why bother with the middle man? Just go down to Autobarn or the likes. That stock the mesh, and in black as well. like $20 for a 1200mm x 280mm section of it.

I agree but do they have the finer mesh grill? or just the same sized mesh as on the grill from thai?

I want to get rid of the standard big holed mesh and use finer one with smaller holes. and i don't want to double up grills

You don't want too fine of a mesh because it ruins the effect. The mesh they sell is the same as the mesh that came on my grill. I received my grill like this with this sized mesh on it. Like I said though, the Autobarn stuff is exactly the same, just in a gloss black. You will still see through it in bright light, but you're better off doubling up on mesh rather than using an even finer mesh.

The best grill I have ever seen is the One on the Camry converted to a TRD Black grill with horizontal bars across it with the TRD badge. Even without the TRD badge it looks heaps better than the mesh grill. No idea where to get one. I haven’t lived in Thailand for a while now I might call then in Thailand; Time to brush up on my Thai Vocab J

Thanks for comment on my TRD Grill.

The source where you can get the grill is actually the same RTN but you need to specify Lexus style.

The original horizontal style grill comes with chrome.

I had to search a company to remove chrome from plastic before I painted it.

Did the bodykit fit straight on. Or did you have to modify the bodykit to fit. Some panel beaters are telling me that alot of kits you can get overseas say they will fit but they dont acutually fit exactly and some cutting and modifying may be needed.

What coy did you buy the kit through in thailand.

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      On my 2002 Prado, the fuel transfer pump has a fuel filter which can block, causing increasingly less fuel transfer between the tanks. It may be the same for the Cruiser too. I have not yet had an issue with mine even at 250000km, but that is low mileage for a 2002 Prado. I hope that you have a filter that can be easily replaced. It could save you a pump replacement.

      2002 Hilux Engine Replacement

      Unless you can identify which engine your Hilux has now, you may be better off finding a good 5LE engine and return it to stock. Nice to have a Turbo diesel though. Have you tried taking a photo of the engine and posting it so others can advise what engine you have. It may be better to have your engine overhauled. If you can locate the engine number (should be on the registration papers if the engine swap was done legit), you might be able to ID the engine that way too. Do you know why the engine seized? It may be possible to overhaul your engine cheaper than replacing it.

      Transmission clunk

      Hi all, Recently completed a long drive. Check engine light came on, traction control off light came on, unable to use cruise control. Pulled immediately over all oil level were good and no leaks. then when accelerating through the gears ( automatic Prado ) hearing and feeling a clunk on each gear ( like it was hard to select). Prado is unable to go into 5th & 6th gear. Maxed out in 4th gear at 90km/h @ 2500rpm. Later in the drive DPF light came on though I have a July 2015 build. DPF introduced in October 2015 that I am aware off. Any ideas at all would be grateful!

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Yes, with 12v applied to the pump you can definitely hear it whirring if it is working. Kind regards Geoff

      Yaris Cross roof rack

      Hi all, I’m looking at purchasing a Yaris Cross GXL however I can’t seem to find any official roof rack for the car On the Toyota website it doesn’t show a roof rack protruding like the Corolla Cross GXL I know you can get roof racks that slide under the door however I don’t see any official listing Interestingly enough Toyota offer an official bike rack for the Yaris, Corolla hatch etc but not the Yaris Cross Rhino-Rack offer a third party roof rack for the “TOYOTA Yaris Cross Gen1 5dr SUV Bare Roof” but I’m a bit hesitant to use a 3rd party roof rack on a brand new car. Do you know if this would cause any warranty issues etc? Another option would be to get a Corolla Cross GXL. However the Yaris Cross would be perfect if it could have a roof rack as I don’t need the extra size, engine and price point of the Corolla Cross. Happy to hear your thoughts

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      I've just got a price from Toyota up here in QLD for the whole replacement unit... (OUCH!!!! 😭) I would share more information on my investigation so far, but apparently, I am a spam bot and can upload pictures, but not write the story to go with it.... without being pulled up for it...... I can tell you that I am getting no suction on what I believe is the fuel line from the sub to main tank. I am however getting 13v on the fuel pump connection. It comes on for a moment before going off. I'm guessing because of this error. Perhaps the rail stops delivering power..... My next step is to apply 12v to the pump and see if I can hear it in the tank making any noise. Surely, I'd be able to hear something with the car not running - if it is working?

      Hilux 2.7 1998 has knock in motor

      A recently purchased 2.7 hilux seemed okay, but when started up (warm) a clunk happened then a loud knock started. The coolant drained out, perhaps into the engine, but being unfamiliar with the vehicle I am unsure what has happened. Any suggestions and possible remedies would be appreciated. Higgyboys

      2017 Kluger AWD. Noise in Cabin - Bearing/Diff. Not Sure.

      Chiming in from the States here, I have a question. I am assuming your Kluger's have the same UA80 transmission as we do? When you say the transfer case was replaced, was it the physical "transfer case" or the transmission? We have similar issues here where the UA80 starts "whining" needing a complete transmission replacement.
