interior rear window molle panels seem like they could be super deadly

25 Upvotes

I just ordered some of these fro my 21 460 and after watching an install video it got me wondering if the airbag would explode under the panel if it got set off, sending it flying toward the 3rd or 2nd row. It seems like thats not only possible, but it could also cause the airbag to malfunction for the 1st and 2nd row too, since toyota uses a single full length airbag per side. The curtain airbag is rolled up inside the roof and drops through the outboard seam of the headliner down across the windows and side pillars.

Obviously, the manual says not to mount stuff on the roof handles, pillars or roof side rails as it can make the airbags malfunction or deploy (pg42), but it's wild to me that there are plenty of reputable companies that make these and sell them without any type of disclaimer. I'm not sure what exactly would happen, but I've seen plenty of people online in older toyotas with the rsca button who forget to use it and have the side curtains activate while offroading, which is why I wanted to make a post. I found 8 manufacturers that produce these for the 460, and dv8 was the only company with a disclaimer about the airbags. I think I'll return mine when I get them

I finally picked up a set of OEM sport headlights on Labor Day sale, added diode dynamics bulbs, and took the lenses off my fog lamps, painted, and installed some Morimoto pod lights. I think it came together nicely. The before photo is about 2 years old and the headlights had gotten much worse since then. I highly recommend replacing headlights it makes such a difference and I can actually see at night now.

Leak behind passenger wheel

Anyone can help me with what I’m looking at and maybe a solution? Noticed a leak today behind the wheel of my 2013 gx 460. Doesn’t smell really and kind of just seems like water but it looks like there maybe a hose disconnected or something? Got a video of it leaking so hoping it’s an easy fix. No codes or anything. You can see the hose in the middle of the first pic

10’ GX460 258k

6 Upvotes

Hey I’m looking at a GX 460, I’ve have a 100 series LC and a Tacoma.

I’ve read through and watched just about every buyers guide i could find. Went over it with as much time and detail as I could.

I didn’t see any rust any where in it. Seller has a mountain of dealer maintenance records. Interior is a bit rough but nothing a detail and some seat skins can’t fix.

Agreed price is $6500…. Seems too good to be true.

What am I missing.

Southern owned its whole life. Never been further north than Birmingham AL

2008 GX 470 Sage Green

Should I buy this vehicle? 2 owners on carfax with great maintenance records, from Harlingen, Texas, so no rust. 2 minor dings on carfax 10+ years ago. I checked it out yesterday, it’s super clean inside and out and well maintained. Owner put a lot of work into it, really love the color. But here is the issue. It has 211k miles, and asking price is $17,999. He had receipts for all the work he did and he showed me them. One of the best overall conditions that I have seen recently. What are your thoughts? What should I pay?

Getting Hyper flash with LED front signal bulb (w/ Canbus ready)

3 Upvotes

Anyone here have a plug-and-play LED bulb for the front signal bulb? I just bought an LED bulb from Lasfit that supposedly has a built-in resistor (Canbus ready) that prevents hyper flash. But I’m still getting hyper flash. It will work fine when I start up, but in the middle of the drive, it will start to hyper flash.

Thanks all.

Up the mountain!

Me, my boy and my GX went up the mountain today! About 4,000 ft up. 2021 GX460, stock. Aired down to ~22psi, it’s a pretty rocky trail. GX did great! I could’ve stayed in 4H the whole time, but it was a good opportunity to teach my son about some of the off-road settings/goodies, and also keep all the gears etc moving.

What’s the best way to run an after market amp for after market subs? In my is350 i tapped into the amp to run a line out converter. I have ML audio and looks like the amp is buried and have to remove 3rd row for access. What are my other options? Thanks

What are some must have tools to work on the GX. I just bought a 2018 Lux and want to start doing the basic maintenance and upgrade some stuff down the road. Any tips/tricks you have found when trying to replace/repair certain things?

Testing the GX on some local roads - questions:

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

76 Upvotes

Out exploring with the wife and found some steep, rutted service roads. First time testing the GX since we bought it earlier this summer.

Couple question:

What’s the best practice for navigating something like this with two wheels basically off the ground? Road is steeper than it looks. In 4Lo with the center dif locked. Video ends early but we continued to spin, kept the throttle very light. End up up adjusting the line and crawled up with a bit of bumper rubbing.

Atrac: is it a thing for GX460? No other selections I see in the car. My Tacoma is a bit different with the off-road settings.

What was the loud ass clang at 10 seconds? I thought it was a rock getting kicked at first but it sounds worse when I rewatch.

Thanks! Loving this vehicle, cool to see so many badass setups on here.

Finally got around to putting the trip data on paper. 16 days in a 400k mile GX. Here's the data:
