Hello Paul, Welcome to the Forum.

Hi Patrick, Welcome to the Forum Try eightseater.blog.com for instructions on how to use the HDD head unit. It's in English.

Ideally, you want lead calcium type, high CCA, but correct size and terminal configuration.

You ought to be able to drag and drop into this topic. I checked the Gallery and your photos are not there. Nor are they in the Members Photo area. Edit. I did find some photos. I need to take a longer look at this. In the meantime, if you want to, send me your photos via PM I'll try and post them for you.

Try Tanya Batteries, they do mail order. Very quick and exceptionally well packed.

They do look really good. very professional.

Hello matt, Welcome to the Forum. Certainly, the video inputs behind the console (should be) are connected to the head unit. The head unit is expecting NTSC, but mine works fine with PAL. via the DVD (not via the RCA jacks, in my case). Whether it will accept audio video input from your phone is another question; and one I cannot answer.. I use a PC for music and films.

Hello Gerry, Congratulations on becoming an Alphard owner after so many years. Welcome to the Form. Happy Alpharding.

Hello Mike, Welcome to the Forum.

Hi Frank, Passenger side B pillar is where it is on mine . It won't look like a European one. It will begin with your model number (ANH) and the latter digits are your VIN number. For example ANHW-10 0098765. It should be on your auction certificate if you have one. Hope this helps.

Hi Teekay, You don't give us any spec for those Lexus ones. Without research how will we know ? I do know the ones below fit, as I have them on my Alphie, and I think Starider has them on his. McGard 21156SU Lock Nuts for Toyota Alphard [Mk1] 02-08 on Original Wheels. Bought from Ebay My Alphie is Gen1 facelift. Good Luck

Hi Zane Your photo doesn't show your head unit. If you have the HDD head unit you will be able to set up your phone via Bluetooth. Try eightseater.blocspot.com as he has put up a very useful guide to its use, and in English

Try and contact Ldrego. He is very close to you. He is also on Youtube as Cuttothechase and, I believe, has created a video about this very issue. There are aslo other threads on here about it. try the search box on your home page.

Try Toyotaalphardepc.com, as Amayama will have them. Or email Toyota Direct in the UK.

Hello Mary, Welcome to the Forum

Hello Paul, Welcome to the Forum.

Petrol or diesel power ? Should do it, but not 2kw. The key to your success is very low consumption appliances and, probably a twin leisure battery set up. Good Luck

Hi Jack, Welcome to the Forum There is a very limited market for these; as anyone having a conversion will have seats to spare ! As they are durable there isn't much call for them. Some photo may help you sell. Good Luck

Hello Angela, Welcome to the Forum. Sorry to disappoint you, imho, but it is an MPV; Multi Purpose Vehicle. I would say a van; a converted one at that. Many insurers will not insure converted Alphies. I feel sure I read recently, in this Forum, that Admiral (a Canadian company I think) will. There is a long thread in the Forum regarding Insurance, try using the search box 'Insurance Companies'. Good Luck.

Hello Zane, Welcome to the Forum

Hello Nigel, Clearly your problem is not while towing then. However, I would expect towing to compress rear end bushings and probably make matters worse. I do not know whether Alphards were designed for towing. However, many members have fitted tow bars. Hopefully Richard's solution will work for you too. Good Luck.

A 2kw load will kill your leisure battery extremely quickly. With a 100Amp/ Hr leisure battery, your battery will last 36 minutes, FULLY discharged. So the load is pulling 2000/12 Amps; nearly 170 Amps ! You need very good wiring for that ! I have read that discharging batteries beyond 50% is very harmful to the battery As Martyn says, you are going to struggle to achieve your aims safely. Try looking for a 200 watt solution. 12V micros exist but most micros (the magnetron) are quite inefficient so you will need to allow for that too.
