What’s the Most Overlooked Upgrade on the LC250?
- Thread starter Matthew@LC250Mods

my vote goes to the silicon pad that covers the phone charger. keeps the tray free from scratches and keeps the phone still. bonus is I got mine for free from a fellow member here.
The issue I experienced with the RAV4 knob is that when tapping it to turn off the radio, it gets stock and resets the radio…. Anyone else?
I was too ashamed to use my horn prior to the Premium horn upgrade, now I'm loud and proud!!
Having a 1958 and when I stalled the 17x8.5 +25 offset Method 318 wheels and 275-70-17 tires the little extra poke the wheels provided was a nice touch but the finishing touch that made this all look amazing was the installation of First Edition/Premium wider flares on the 1958.
Now the tire sits perfect with the flare and the extra 1/2 inch of flare vs the OEM 1958 flare has made small difference in debris getting kicked up but the major factor is the looks, it just looks so much better with these flares and it’s also an OEM look which I really like.
Those that don’t have a 1958 just don’t know the difference in looks these flares make. One of the pictures shows the difference in flare width.
Now: Who needs a full set of 1958 Flares in like new condition?? If you are near or around Tucson I’ll sell them for a very fair price $250. They could be shipped but I would say it’s probably not reasonable to do so.

I fully agree--the wider flares really transform the look. It's subtle, but once you see it, you can subconsciously immediately tell when you see each type in the wild.
I've never had this issue. Did you remove the

Busted!!! I didn’t. As always, you are scholar and a gentleman. Thanks
I am 5’ 10” and have used these for a few years now on my other Toyotas. They give me some much better lower back support, keeping by butt more to the rear of the seat and lower back more aligned to the seat back.
I would have never thought these would work as well as they do for such a simple part installation.
I can't take any credit, it's all @EOD Guy!
Do you have a link for the engine cover? Didn’t find in Google search. Much appreciated.

I also couldn't find that engine cover based on the original posters words. Did a deeper dive and found it at Victory4x4...
Apologize for typo. Corrected the posting.
Correct - Victory 4x4 is the aluminum version I used (I added the GR logo). Ordered cover & got delivered in 1 week.
eBay has some conventional poly covers for $100 or so.
Looks like this euro version:

Matte PPF, Paint Protection Film for the center info touch screen, it’s a game changer for all those fingerprints. We added it to the dash display as well, it helps prevent those micro scratches from cleaning off trail dust.
….Got 99% of all stuffs the gang mentioned….
