Thankyou for the continued comments and support everyone. It is certainly a very exciting time and I am sure the next week and maybe a bit longer will drag but then maybe not I have a few things to take off Prado etc so will start doing that from mid week.

I was hoping to take my nice wooly seat covers off and fit to front seats of Colorado but they both have Airbags fitted to the top corners of both front seats, bugga. never mind I will sort something out.

Hi Doug, You will have to change the seat covers unfortunately as the old ones do not comply with the requirements of the air bags... I had to do the same for my MU-X, cost me a couple of hundred cry

Thanks for that normn, I have had a good look at the area were the airbag is fitted and can see the difference in stitching and have also seen the seat cover that is compliant. At this stage I think I will cut my wooly seat cover around the full area of the airbag until I decide to replace with new ones. Better than undoing the stitching I think. I will only have the driver seat covered as the the passenger woolly in the Prado is as new but driver one worn so only one for me at this stage. Can't see why it won't work really. If the cover falls apart then nothing lost really as it will only go to the bin now anyway. Worth a try.

I have spent the afternoon removing UHF Radio and other things not going with Prado so all is in readiness for the big day. Soon I hope.

I am not getting any reply calls from the salesman since Monday so will go in tomorrow as have another question for them.

I have been told there is a possibility you can't use WDH's on the Holden Tow Bar so will check that out. Gee if I ask the young salesman that he will go into meltdown I think.

Yes Jim but a couple of things still to get done, but yes I do have the beast and very happy indeed. You will read and see about it in my next update that I put in the "General" section of this forum.
