  1. Hi igeraghtyb I haven’t yet,the camera supply and return are located in a 4way connector block if I remember correctly it has 1 grey wire 1 grey/white and 2 white. I am going to try and remove the top dash to allow better access as wiring loom very tight. You will also have find the reverse gear wire to allow the cam to work only when in Rev. Will let the club know how I get on very soon. Mike

  4. Hi shawn make Shure you have shift stick in d mode not d4 this will reduce revs you should be able to do 70 mph at 2100rpm photo1 shows correct drive mode 2 is showing d4 ,hope this helps mike
  5. Hi mario i have a 20063lt v6 alphie with a 4speed auto box, at 60 mph my revs are 3100. At 70 they are 3200 this while driving in d4. The fuel consumption you state I would call reasonable I have had many 2.5 autos before and at best returned 25mpg. mike
  6. Hi grizzla went for model PSD60HGT this came with a Rav 4 connector loom fits directly into the dash without infill fillers only wiring changes needed were for rear camera, no front or side cams on my alphie. Go on google look for alphard 2din android 10 car stereo 6.2 inch screen can be bought on Amazon for £215.99
  7. Hi folks Just finished cleaning up yellowing headlights, started with 1000 grade wet and dry by hand moderate pressure with plenty of water this was followed by the same process with 1500 grade. Using a polishing pad on a drill used something called (Pink Stuff) worked this in well reapplying regularly. Satisfied that this had flattened any blemishes from the wet&dry I then used cutting in compound using a soft pad and drill moderate pressure the results were pretty outstanding.
