nice one

Thanks Derek.   a simple thing really- but often people overthink it .    It was very easy and worked really well.  

Thank you sir !.. It really did work well.  I'm very pleased with the result for no $ and little time.  

Just thought i would share as it worked so well.   I cleaned up my cloth Alphard seats which are blue but were incredibly dirty for a 73,000 km vehicle. -  almost black.    These get highly used im Japan obviously.

The seats are in excellent condition and very high quality.   You can read a ton about it or get them detailed   get a steam cleaner or "?     .   Or you can do what i did in 20 minutes.    I've done a lot of carpet cleaning and had some Rug Doctor Oxyclean carpet cleaner.  to be honest i think any carpet cleaner intended for an extraction machine would work.  mixed it up 1 to 4 parts h20 .  that's very concentrated.  used a spray bottle and sprayed the seat    I had a mittfull of buffing clothes and agitated the fabric with one  and wiped it clean with another.  4 times in total.   quick and easy .  smells great and they're clean brother !  

That’s just great info.  Thanks Pete.  I’m going to dig into it when I get home from work today .⚽️⚽️🎶

That is so intersting about your head unit.   I'm pretty greee on this Forum, but I think it will be fantastic to keep up with you folks.  This is a very rare van in Canada.

Mark why do you want to replace your headlight lens 

 

I actually thought I might have to.   I've just purchased the van and the lens was heavily crazed.   It has responded really well to some wet sanding and buffing and has come along.   Another round on the weekend.  there's lots of plastic there to buff.  They're thick.  

 

Hi .  It's Mark in Vancouver, Canada.  I just bought a 2003 Alphard.  it's cool.  But I'm a little worried. 

I can't find any info on head replacement other than Alibab .... and what about the headlight lens .  

Anyone else follow this up ?  and perhaps have a few leads from locals that see more of these than in North America ? 

Any help appreciated.  Mark
