  1. The choice we have with LED DRLs is pretty amazing!
  2. Paul seems like a genuine guy and his contact in japan makes very interesting videos on cars they ship.
  3. Hi do you mind sharing the details of Alphard mats you make? Are these custom made for campers or used for regular Alphard Vellfire too? Any pictures & prices?
  4. Posted by @David Jones Target garage waunarlwydd Swansea, has been great for service and repair to my car. There is also a selection of Japanese imports on the same site.
  5. If you care to have nice car and ready to wait, best might be to import it yourself, plenty of guys in this business can help. I'm trying out one and hope it works. Good luck Btw..LOL..couldn't find the auction sheet 🐒
  6. All regular active contributing members, please share your known contacts of useful garages, parts suppliers, dealers etc. Thankyou 👍
  7. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience. We have megathread for garages. Please try to post your recommendations about the Japanese importer and garage there. People need to network and make it work for us collectively. Thankyou
  8. I understand this is great for rubber bushes and other rubber components but it seems to be only sold in US. Are there equivalent uk products? Especially Autoglym must do it! Any experts!? PS: I realise this is not accessory but been posted already..
  9. My impression is many of our club members are retired or living in the countryside, so wild animals jumping in front of the car can be an issue. On motorways too we see roadkill far too often. Will this product make sense? Anyone can recommend them / have first hand experience?

  10. There is plenty to choose from I suppose. These insurance guys themselves don't know what logic or algorithm they follow. Some actuarial super computer is making decisions in the background. Please post your findings. Thankfully many contacts and tips here.
  11. That's fantastic. Else it becomes a mess with all posts in one big pile
  12. https://tps.trade I'm told Trade Part Service TPS have best price on manufacturer quality oils, fluids, parts etc for VW group cars but perhaps their 5W30 oil, windscreen washer, universal anti freeze etc can work well for Alphard Vellfire. If you are using TPS please share your experience and if not find if this is near to your place. I'm use to using only castrol oil but considering their 5W30 especially if v6 need me oil and I'll change is much more frequently. Any opinions?
  13. +1 @Vellfire1please share the heater details and picture for sunroof drain unblock. Appreciate your post 👍🎌
  14. Cool 👍 I might ask Costco guy if they are happy to do this?
  15. I've seen pure highway being mentioned Clarion use to be good name Non branded you mentioned, can you please share the link
  16. DAB radio sound quality is really good and choice of stations is better. I think this kind of device in pic can be really good and best to leave the original headunit untouched.
  17. Can members please come forward to share contacts to Toyota dealerships / garages they know are good at dealing with Alphards and Vellfires!! In spirit to benefit of the community you should come forward to contribute. I'm not prodding for my own personal benefit.
  18. Copied from another thread as it is relevant.. Gastech, Birchwood, Warrington, wa3 6qt They import and sell a large number of Alphard. They let take out car for a test drive and give loads of great advice. They also do lots of additional jobs to Alphards, like towbars, replacement stereos, genuine Toyota cruise control, lpg conversions and so much more. They have a mechanic and vehicle electrician too, so can cover all sides of work required. 20years experience too. Thanks to @Daveg1971
  19. Guy in wales I've been hearing is stag expert (15 years?). Andrew 01443 812893. Try calling him, unless he is the one who fitted it!
  20. Can you please share where the lpg conversion was done? What is name of the kit? Brand / kit.
  21. Is this fairly common thing? Can anything be done in UK to address this? Toyota uk won't do anything by default?
