The facelifted model has more rear lighting. Check DVLA for the year that yours was manufactured. There are differing opinions on the changeover date; my belief is September 2005.
Gamith Posted February 17 Posted February 17 Mine is a face-lift model and its May 2005, so yours should be a face-lift version also. One tell for the face-lift version is whether there is a second kerb-side mirror on the mirror to help with parking. there are some examples on wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Alphard. I have successfully fitted cruise-control to mine - very straight-forward once you have taken the cover off the steering wheel, though I did get caught out by the colour of my stalk surround, I didn't realise that the first one I bought was black, rather than a grey colour. Surround - 45186-58020 Steering wheel button - 1870633-30 and a search for 'CRUISE CONTROL STALK SWICTH FIT FOR TOYOTA YARIS RAV4 LANDCRUISER PRIUS AURIS' (ebay item:184954212553) found me the stalk.

Do i really need to add the steering wheel buttons? I still cant find any really but the stalk i found them.

The deal with the steering wheel buttons is the small white connector that sends data / power / magic to the cruise control stalk. I'm sure someone can elucidate but asfaik it's needed.
arcascomp Posted February 18 Posted February 18 I can't quite recall, but I *think* this is a difference between a 10 series facelift and a 20 series - the 20 series is just a stalk and plug and play as the white connector is sitting there ready to use. Maybe the facelift 10 series needs the extra loom bit. One item I'd love to sort out, my dash warning lights for cruise don't illuminate so I have to use it 'by feel' - I wonder if there's a difference in the resistance or something for some stalks over others?

Gamith Posted February 18 Posted February 18 Yep - same light clusters as my facelifted one, though you seem to be missing the dual cameras in the front grill (not that they are of any use 🙂 and the rear wiper.

As above, the no expense spared £9 stalk I've fitted works, but doesn't light up the cruise light on the dash. My stalk only has two wires, is there different ones that do also turn on the cruise indicator light? Secondly, seems I ordered the trim piece for a 10 series by mistake, any pointers for the right trim piece for a 20 series? Did you end up getting the dash light to light up? If so how. Mines not turning on either.
