    That a great thing. To see that Australians are helping Australians. If we all do one thing to help someone. You will feel better about yourself, and one day, someone else will help you in return. By just Saying Hello, to a stranger. Or say Have A Great Day.
    Can be a start. From little things, big things grow.
    Great build. And have a great day.

    • @Campingdownunder
      @Campingdownunder  2 месяца назад +1

      I'm not planning on doing a lot of water crossings. I've fitted plenty of brands over the years and the genuine Toyota snorkel is my favourite as it has a very slimline profile compared to the competition. Even Ronny Dahl only used genuine Toyota snorkels for hilux's. You can make them waterproof but it's at your own risk. I doubt any brand would cover a new motor if something went wrong. This is why I didn't want to lead people on but instead be honest and let them modify it at their own risk 👍

    Love Toyota. My daughter and husband bought a new kluger hybrid this year. They found the same thing, just as easy to manage repayments on new as it was on used. They absolutely love it. Best fit with 4kids and they had a very comfortable drive 12 hrs to Melbourne in it already. I call it the sneaky car because you don’t hear it pull up. 😂

    • @Campingdownunder
      @Campingdownunder  Месяц назад

      Thanks mate 👍 I'm not sure about the 2017. I'm pretty sure back then you could still pick up the highbeam signal from the headlights from memory. It's only the newer one's that you can't.
      But it does sound like they've done something wrong to cause that issue. I'd definitely get them to look over it again & fix it

    I'm so relieved to see that your world is falling into place!
    I enjoyed my 2002 Hilux but like you, I couldn't trust it to go remote traveling. My 2012 Colorado is by far a better vehicle than the old Lux and I've put a lot of work and money into it over the last 4 or 5 months.
    After watching your new build, I wish I had the money to build something similar from scratch.
    I'm looking forward to seeing stage 2 and ultimately the 1st of many adventures!
    I must also say a big thank you to your boss!
    Bosses like him don't come around too often these days!
    Once again, congratulations!

    Congrats, things are looking up mate and well done to Busselton Toyota. And this isn't just Toyota but all 4wd makers, they know we add lightbars and 12v accessories. Why the heck don't they make a standard plug and play pickup point for high beams somewhere sensible instead of having to gut the whole car? And why can't they have a simple 12v bussbar behind an easy to access panel somewhere down under the infotainment to power accessories like CB, dashcam, navigation, phone chargers etc.

    • @Campingdownunder
      @Campingdownunder  2 месяца назад

      Australia is a very small market and most other countries don't fit the accessories we fit here in Australia. So they can't design their cars just to please a tiny fraction of the market. Australia is a very unique market and we absolutely love our accessories here. But until we are a bigger market they won't design cars purely for our needs

    fantastic to see mate, great to see you find your feet again. and well done to Busselton Toyota too! great to see a company get behind its employees. just a thought but maybe consider doing some more technical videos with installs and wiring etc. especially since you do it everyday! share them little nuggets of knowledge that comes with knowing a platform inside and out. not often a master of his craft has a platform like this to share his knowledge. also 100% agree with the rim choice! I don't think there is a nicer factory wheel out there, my Boss puts them on all our field service Utes and they look a million bucks! looking forward to what's next!

    • @Campingdownunder

      Thanks mate 👍 if you go back through my older vehicles I actually have shared quite a few wiring videos trying to help people out and they did really well. I just have to be careful because showing people how to fit accessories can actually take work away from my employer so it's not something I can do regularly unfortunately. My very first video on RUclips was actually me showing how to install a redarc charger. Recorded it with nothing but my phone 😂

    Hey mate, love the video.
    I’m about to put a cradle and winch on mine that already has the bar fitted. Any pointers?

      Just that the entire bar has to come off & you basically start from scratch with the brackets lol. Make sure they give you the instructions with them & as long as you follow them you'll be fine 👍
