Could not agree with you more.
Being from the platteland going into the highways here in Cape town is plain recklessness. I lane split because it is legal but the speeds the guys are doing between...

Same here prepping for our trip to Ai-ais and Richtersveld so time is in short supply

We are leaving for Ai-ais and the via sendelings drift for the Richtersveld.
Does anyone know the level of the river?

Heard stories that the pond is not working due to the drought.

We will be...

Good to know. So 2004 is the unlucky date[emoji2357][emoji2357]

I routed my fridge cable along the underside left handside.
There is a grommet at the very rear left hand side of the boot section, where i pushed through

Besides from the bad news from lekhubu no new updates.

We are leaving for Ai-ais on Sat. Plan was tp tale all our meat over the border. Hopefully we still can!

We are leaving the 21st of Dec for a trip to Ai-ais(2 days) and down to Richtersveld (4 days).

It going to be a scorcher!!!!:o:o:o

Agree 100% with you on this. That was my thinking also but looking at the schematic you provided i would say disconnecting the ground is maybe the wire we could use

athread i have been looking for, for quite some time!!!

Same issue Prado 120 and we attend Atlantis quite frequently. Same problem as what Tintin described.

I did however not pull the fuse but...

This comparison is like chalk vs cheese (The best bloody cheese that you can get!!!!!!!)

Even with 250000km on the clock FJ all the way!!!

Budget is always an issue so my set up is very minimilistic in design (Big words eish) so always just purchasing what we need.

But i believe its functional for what we will be doing, but as always...
