dont understand why they wont allow this, its good for everyone

not really. coz then u get very skewed views on product "evaluations". and then u also get some amazingly keen ppl promoting specific products. messy, lots of conflict of interests, pandora's box.

as it is, u never know who's getting kickbacks from certain products these days.

We do not allow any company to trade and have any commercial gain unless they pay for the privilage to do so.

We pay alot of money to keep these sites running and for someone to make money from our expense is something we are not interested in having.

If a dealer wishes to pay a monthly fixed fee and trade then we are happy for them to trade.

Sorry, but you have to see it from our point of view. The club is more important than a quick deal from a trader we know nothing about.

At the moment I don't have something else so I'll just continue to harp on about this.

If the CES products are pinned, then the old 'Where to get parts' and 'Part Numbers' posts should be pinned up again. Fair is Fair isn't it?

Sorry to make myself clear, I know you've added them to the 'Please read here first thread', but that's no longer prominent and honestly that thread isn't really read by newcomers, as shown by the continued repeats.

IZZ-FE has every right to be questioning the policy as quoted from Steve... As far as anyone is aware CES is not a sponsor of this forum and as you told me this morning Northy they have not payed for the privilage for their products to be advertised on the forum... You say Steve has given you the okay to put the post up so either this means Steve is contradicting his own words or the rules no longer apply... I just think IF ONE COMPANY IS ALLOWED TO HAVE THEIR PRODUCT ADVERTISED AND PINNED AT THE TOP OF THE FORUMS WHY CANT OTHERS... Now people may come on here and argue that Trevor @ CES is the only one doing the work to develop these products for the sportivo but the fact is he is still making a profit from them and with every sale from someone who see's the products advertised here this becomes commercial gain from the forum...

      Head Unit with Apple CarPlay

      Did you end up getting a head unit for the Rav4? I'm thinking of purchasing one from eBay for my 2015 Rav4.

      RZN169 Poor fuel economy and low/rough idle at cold start up

      Hi all, First time writter. Long term reader. I have a RZN169r 1999 Toyota Hilux 3rzfe Manual 4WD with 425,000KM. Which we have owned from 130,000KM. Since about the 400,000km mark (it had a new/used 138,000km engine only, installed at 385,000KMs) it has been using fuel and idiling rough. I'm getting 100kms less then usual. We would normally get 450-550kms per tank. Now getting 350km-400kms. Our long term mechanic of 20 years retired a few years ago and I have no one in my local area who knows these engines or who I trust. Any sugestions on who I can take my car to? I also have no faith in my local Toyota Dealer. I'm in Sydney NSW. Thank you in advance.

      Purchasing 2014 Prado GXL - Requesting Inputs

      Hello, Thanks for reading my post. We're in the middle of the process of buying 2014 Prado GXL from a private buyer in Brisbane. It has 107K km on the odometer, we arranged an independent inspection and only noticeable issue came out of the inspection is presence of rust. Inspector said general wear (ageing) and rust to the components consistent with the age and mileage. I've attached some of the images(related to rust) from the inspection, please review and let me know if I should be concerned about any future issues or as the inspector mentioned is the rust presence is expected for a 10-year old Prado. Appreciate your help in advance. Thanks, VM

      3rd Gen (XU50) Kluger new aftermarket radio install

      Hi there sorry for the late response, The reverse guidelines are on the factory camera itself (the guidelines are turned off on the Pioneer unit as it doubled up over the factory camera lines) and if I remember correctly they still retain the angle prediction. Everything else (excluding DAB) works***. But instead of using DAB I've downloaded RadioApp which has all of the DAB stations on it and is accessible by Android Auto (not sure on Apple CarPlay though) so no biggie. I also used an adapter to retain the original GPS antenna, works flawlessly. *** EDIT *** The info on the instrument cluster may or may not show, depending on what interface you end up using. In my case I've lost the audio and navigation info on the centre screen and fuel economy/vehicle customisation screens from the factory head unit but I'm not fussed by it as there are other ways to access them on a Kluger. I think it's all retained if you use iDatalink Maestro and a compatible head unit (it will be marked as such) but besides that and DAB all other functions are still operable.

      Removing low beam bulb 2014 Camry

      Thanks, Mate - i'll give it a go. As you say, $15 is better than replacing a damaged headlight (not to mention the aggravation).
