OTEP, kinabahan tuloy ako. Are you referring doon sa lamp below the head light of the crosswind? Madali pala tanggalin yon?

I think OTEP was referring to the signal lamps beside the headlamps. Sinubukan ko na ito, madali lang nga tungkabin.

one way to prevent your side mirrors from being stolen is to extend the edges of the side mirror case..

hindi pwedeng manakaw ang side mirror dahil hindi mo pwedeng masungkit ang ilalim ng side mirror.

it looks good and it works.. problema nga lang mababawasan ang makikita mo sa side mirror mo..

hindi ko nga lang alam kung saan magpapagawa...

our side mirrors got stolen twice sa rav 4 namin...

gumawa na lang kami ng home made device.. nilagyan na lang namin ng angle bar and we screwed it down sa case.. it works but it's really UGLY..

hindi lang side mirrors ang ninakaw sa amin.. our signal lamps got stolen twice at hanggang ngayon wala pa ring signal lamp ang rav 4 namin.. how can you prevent this?

pati center caps ninakaw... pero di na namin papalitan...

I guess where you park is important. San mo ba iniiwan ang sasakyan niyo ephraim?

TEAL,
Tama si Ungas. Dami kasi akong nakikita dito sa Sampaloc na mga Crosswinds na walang clearance lamp, eh.

sa harap ng bahay namin.. la na kasing garage...

ok ba na i-epoxy ang screws ng signal lamps? pwede ba tong matanggal using a solution of some sort?

Dont' buy "japan" surplus mirrors, signal lights, etc. sa Banawe. May market kasi ang mga *#$%&**! hinayupak na yan kaya tumitira sila.

Hindi ata epoxy ang gagamitin mo. Yung Loctite dapat. Yun ang ginagamit ng mga off-road shops sa U.S. to secure bolts.

Maraming salamat Ungas & OTEP for the info on the Crosswind clearance lamps. I checked my XTO and mukha namang mahirap tungkabin dahil naka screw yung plastic bracket nila sa loob and one will have to open the hood para matanggal yung screw. Mapuputol yung bracket kapag pinwersa.

Pareho kaya ang clearance light mounting ng XTO and ng mga bagong Crosswind models?

Salamat again.

Any advice guys how to prevent these thieves from stealing our sidemirrors? Or where in banawe do they sell this sidemirrors at a low price? Just in case lang..;)

Another option is install fabricated side mirrors. Maganda naman tingnan yet hindi nanakawin kasi di original. Years back, meron gumagawa nyan sa Banawe rin. Ewan ko lang kung nandon pa yung shop (i forgot the name).
