Nice one Bob , that's such a good mod to do to the Rav , makes the space so much more usable. Are you planning on putting reflectors of some kind on the edge of the door so it can be seen on the dark ?

This shows the two bolt check strap on the door frame, the one we ordered has one bolt hole and it’s fixed with a rivet, the 4.2 one had a knock out pin.  |

Got around to fitting new headlamps today, had polished the old ones up a few times but I just want it looking immaculate 😎   The metal trim below the headlamps was a challenge to get off but all done without damage in the end . Needed a very small pick to get these lugs pushed in !  |

Young mr Devlin sorted out a great price for the genuine items ….and a bargain price at that 😎 With the sunny weather beating on the RAV4 the headlamps had a small amount of yellowing along the top edge, could have kept polishing them but just like my cars looking as mint as possible . Old headlamps will be up for sale at some point as they are still very usable 👍🏻 |

Nice work, Bob. Almost makes me wish that I'd kept our 3-dr. (Almost...... but the 4.5 is a lovely bit of kit.)

Nice work, Bob. Almost makes me wish that I'd kept our 3-dr. (Almost...... but the 4.5 is a lovely bit of kit.) It was the only job that let the Rav4’s condition down …now I’m 100% happy with it now 😎 will valet the inside at some point 👍🏻 |
