Welcome to all owners of Toyota Fortuner [continued]

[Sumie]

Got my reverse camera from banawe (I am living here in Iligan City, Mindanao), I run the video cable and connected camera power supply from Reverse Tail light all by myself. Pero ang problema ko is di ko alam kung ano ang gagawin to activate the head unit when on reverse gear.

Anybody has done the reverse camera installation on DIY? Pls share...

Thanks in advance..

I did a research; Connected the 3rd wire (red) of the video cable on the positive line of reverse light, and tapped the other end of the 3rd line of video cable on the head unit's green cable labeled 'reverse'. Now, I have a reverse camera working and also installed GPS antenna...total damage 12500php for 2 items, yay!

Hello, want to ask what spare tire lock are you using. Ninakawan ako ng spare tire sa fort. May nilagay na ako na motorcycle chain para di nakawin pero na bolt cutter pa rin ata. May recommended ba kayo na thickness or brand?

I'm using the spare tire lock that comes with my spare tire cover from toyota, meron din yata sa OLX for only 1.3k php.

Tumingin nga ako sa olx kanina. Meron rin palang nabibili sa Toyota. I think the thieves are carrying a bolt cutter when they did the heist. Di pala kaya nung master na chain lock.

Nakuha ko spare tire lock ko sa casa as a freebie.
Wag ka kukuha nung mga mababaw yung lock, kunin mo yung malalim tulad nung galing sa casa. Yung mababaw check mo sa youtube natatanggal sya kahit walang gamit na susi kaya wala rin silbi. Mababaw meaning yung locking mechanism hanggang tip lang ng shaft.

Also yung kalso ng spare tire, may provision sya para sa padlock, use that too.

my opinion.
i get the cheap ones from the mall... sa motorcycle accessories.
no sense in getting the most expensive one, because a decent bolt cutter can cut them both easy.
these locks are simply deterrents.. i make sure mine is very visible. when they see it hanging under, they in all likellihood, will skip my vehicle and go to another one without such lock hanging under..

but i am curious...
how many of you out there, got your spare tire stolen despite the chain and lock? did the bad guy cut the chain, or did he distruncate the lock?

Correct. Unfortunately, the crook was not deterred by my chain lock. Mahal siguro bentahan nung blacked out rims ng fortuner kaya may nageffort na magnakaw.

well, you can do what i did, after mine was stolen.
i got an old revo steel rim and fitted it with a non-new but still serviceable tire. even without the lock, they didn't bother me again... even after 10 years...

I am using the thickest chain that I was able to source from a hardware store, with padlocks... Plus, an after market spare tyre lock... So far it is still there....

Yes, the black rims and tyres of the Fortuner are a fortune.... So there goes...

[A121]

Thanks. Nakakuha na ako ng police report. Will buy aftermarket lock and thick chain. Hanap na rin ako ng abloy na padlock hehe.

Good option din yung steel rim. Though, nagkaexperience din sa office ko dati na ninakaw yung steel rim ng adventure. Bago pa kasi yung goma. Walang patawad yung mga magnanakaw.

Hi, anyone tried the rancho quick lift shocks? What are the pros and cons compared to the normal rancho shocks? Thanks

casa sells only in sets of 4.
you can try the tire and rim stores in banawe and evangelista, po. owners will go there to trade in their stock rims for fancier ones. you can probably get one piece, if you look hard enough. sa dami ng nananakawan ng spare tire...
if the rim is for the spare only, you might consider one that fits but does not look like the other four.

Covered din ng insurance yan sa pagkakaalam ko

Thanks for the recommendation sir, try ko maghanap sa banawe. What would you recommend? Donut tires, steel rims, or just any 18s that fits? Baka may marecommend ka rin na lock for that. Thanks!

i'd look for one with the same characteristics as your current tires, so as not to stress the car when it is actually used.
when my innova spare was stolen, i got a cheaper revo steel rim and a used but still good-lookin' tire as replacement, para hindi na masyadong guwapo at nakawin, but still serviceable. i consulted the tire chart calculators easily available in google, to make sure the circumferences are the same.
i am not sure, if toyota used steel rims for your ride...

Marami sa mga second hand tire shops. Kung wala pwede ka nila hanapan.

btw... liquid above is correct. stolen spare tire is covered by compre insurance. an affidavit is all you need.
