This is just a grommet mate, go to a place that does wiring and looms, you 'll be able to find a match as these are common in all

What's the deal with this stupid hideous impractical body kits on the prado, so hard to find an unmolested used one of the last generations. With that kit they can't even clear a road divider, forget off road.

No I have a few friends who do, I mean forget off road, this thing can't even clear a steep incline off a parking lot.
Well once I had a similar issue, blew a 4wd output shaft seal, when I inquired why it happened in such a low mileage, they said 4wd has never been used and the seal had clogged up and pulled along once it was used. Since then I do a 4wd system rotation every week.

Around 10- 13 in the 3pot 1 litre provided you are very careful. people boast 17s and 19s but will not happen

Try to buy a reputed brand, most probably jdm aftermarket or used, will be cheaper, and stronger. Avoid Chinese and Taiwan wheels in shops.

Back in the day to heat shield defenders we used to buy a roll of mcfoil or alternative and go to town on the bits with some multibond. Did the job @Davy the intake in Montero an Montero sport is also fashioned that way, wish there was a after market solution for that, Maybe they thought the turbo will compensate for this? And probably to increase wading capability,

As these are fairly older parts Try delkanda Also the places in kurunegala which is not that far for u

Option 2 all the way, The aquas here have aged and been hacked, most need a new battery and redone to fool buyers. An aqua with a faulty hybrid system is not at all economical to run let alone repair. A vitz unreg as a direct import or from a credible source is a far better option I bought 2 keis to cut down fuel costs after using thirsty diesels, quite happy with the decision , garage visits have gone so low that the mechanic calls to find out if I went abroad or died.

For a crucial thing such as engine oil, I'd still stick to a reputed brand

Lal cushion in mount lavinia may handle small jobs like this, the big places in darley road are overated and too busy We have meds with longer shelf lives, I doubt it will have any effect even if it's oil based , aerosol paints last usually 4 years.

-
can be fixed, any upholstery guy can, or with a spray on adhesive.

I don't know any proper brands, mostly generic Chinese ones but they work, good for an emergency
-
Yea they work about 3 - 4 times on a diesel, petrol can go more, but avoid ene charge vehicles like wagon R etc

Elc**do Trading has it, will be costly though Will be cheaper finding a recon

Paint experts; will filling a 5mm deep 10mm wide groove with a length of like 4 feet on a plastic bumper with bondo / cataloy / filler work? or will it crack away?
Not a damage, just a cosmetic change
-
that is quite deep and because of the depth I think the filler will get pitted and eventually the bonding will break off with time;,especially if by some chance a small chip occurs (by getting nudged by a three wheleer or those stationary trees and lamp posts coming over and hitting you).
I would say get some proper resin/fiber work done and the filler will be there just to smoothen it out.

Check this out lol Wikipedia

In my opinion the only thing that puts the prado behind is the YOM. Drive both and you will realise The 1.5 Crv ain't no race car, and it's more or less a van = a "suv" without ground clearance and 4wd

Yea probably, these bits are kinda old, steel mate reverse sensors was a hit in the early 2000s, rarely used now due to cameras
-
Universal central locking kit The controller box you have pictured makes sure that operation via the metal key in the cylinder locks and unlocks the other doors, if you had a wireless controller alarm kit etc that module will replace this.
-
The sensor could be old, and also maybe a loose connection or short circuit along the way, I'd say get rid of it and do a good install My inlaws had a reverse camera wired up on a spoiler to get the best angle, it was installed by some lunatic, ended up frying the whole line and the reverse activation switch from the gearbox where it stopped, the part is rather rare and they are still looking for one and lighting up reverse by a hand switch.
