  1. Nope - piping is reversed on an LHD. Look through the grille on your car and you will see where the refrigerant lines connect is different.
  2. Thats the same seller I bought mine from too. Just waiting on delivery at the moment.
  3. Nissens is a good brand but beware - most of the cheap ones are for LHD models. The RHD ones are double the price unfortunately. part number for the RHD one is 940710
  4. Thanks for the feedback on how yours went! Just waiting on my new condenser to hopefully sort mine out too. Have you tried one of those Aircon refresh blaster cans? I know some of them do claim to kill bacteria in the system. You just turn up the aircon on recirc and stick the opened can in your cupholder and leave it for 15mins or so Holts LOYTEC1 Air Car sanitizer 150ml https://amzn.eu/d/7Rb9j1A
  5. It passed a vacuum test the first time I had it re-gassed at a garage last year. I guess I was hoping the leak-seal additive in the DIY kit would plug up whatever leak was present this time round. No such luck. Next re-gas after I fit the new condenser will be at a garage where they can test it again before filling.
  6. I regassed mine a week ago with a diy kit and it worked great for the week. Checked the engine trays under the rad with a UV light and the dye lit them up like a disco lol. Condenser is hanging in bits so have bit the bullet and am fixing it. New nissens condenser ordered up just yesterday for £144 delivered on eBay. Was lucky to find one there, they usually get snapped up quickly it seems. will pop into local Toyota dealer to get the O rings and will fit it all soon. I’ll take a few pics for my build thread if anyone is interested too. will have it all finished just in time for the colder weather coming in lol.
  7. Considering replacing my condenser rad soon too as it’s hardly got a fin left on it and is leaking round the joints. Were the O rings easy enough to get or did you have to get them in from Japan/UAE? How did your replacement go in the end? Any problems along the way?
  8. Interested in this too - I haven’t seen anyone selling them yet. Assuming that as more start rotting the market will pick up lol. Could be lucky and find a scrap car with decent sills that could be cut off.
  9. From memory it will only come on if the ignition is on. And there is a person or a heavy weight in the passenger seat and the seatbelt is off obviously.
  10. There is a pressure sensor under the passenger seat. If it’s triggered but the seatbelt isn’t clicked in, it flashes red
  11. Nice shiny rear subframe from a seller in Wales. Already rust-protected and good to install
