hodge Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I'd love a TRD wheel but for what people charge for them I couldn't bring myself to buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 Steering wheel looks awesome! This car is ace mate Pictures don't do it justice! It really is in mint condition! Even came with all the original TRD paperwork! I'd love a TRD wheel but for what people charge for them I couldn't bring myself to buy one. I said the same a while ago...but plan is to have the interior retrimmed in black leather with red stitching and thought this would finish it off perfectly!

Westy Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 Got a spare 5 minutes so fitted the Titanium Strut Bolts and Dparkplug cover dress kit I got from Rob: On a negative note my HIDs that I got in the GB are still giving me hassle...the drivers side won't turn on but when connected directly to the battery it lights up straight away...any ideas where the problem could be!?

Sounds like a poor earth. Try earthing it direct to the chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 May be a stupid Q but what part of it would I have to connect John!? They worked fine for a couple of weeks but everytime the car get left on the garage they never work when brought back out!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 The plug that goes into the stock loom powers the unit. Insead of plugging g it in attach the live to the loom and the earth to the chassis. If that doesn't pinpoint the issue, earth it to the loom plug and live it to the battery. 1 of them will be at fault for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 Hmm...ok mate...thank for the feedback. I'll see how I get on but I'm getting close to tearing them out and going back to stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Lovely mate, really nice work. Ditto what Hodge said, I would love a TRD wheel but £600+ minimum is a killer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 Lovely mate, really nice work. Ditto what Hodge said, I would love a TRD wheel but £600+ minimum is a killer! It is some amount of cash but IMO it will finish the interior once retrimmed. YOLO!haha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Agreed bud. Worthy purchase and it won't lose it's value should you ever decided to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 The way their prices have gone I'd be surprised if it doesn't continue to go up in value mate. It really is mint and has all the original paperwork with it....saying that I'll probably never sell it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
