About 3 months ago I picked up my 06 extra cab Hilux with 200,000 K's on the clock. All pretty straight apart from a ding under the passenger door. Picked it up for a steal and the dealer was also an ironman agent who did me a great deal on a snorkel and bull bar.
Flew to Melbourne and picked it up. Drove it back and on the way from Vic yo QLD had a tyre bubble, so as soon as I got back new shoes were in order. I kept the 15x7 white sunnies and wrapped them with 235/75 R15 Kelly Safari TSR tyres. I went close to stockish on the size to get through roadworthy.
Now for the fun stuff. Firstly took it to a trusted mechanic to fit up the bull bar and snorkel (pic). Following that I wired up the 240W 42" LED light bar on the head board and installed a GME TX3400 UHF with a 9db aerial. I also have a 4.5db for running around town. Also fitted a rhino toolbox to the tray for a little tool space.
Next up some lighting, meet 2x 5" LED pods and 2x 7" HID spotlights for the bull bar. It is bloody close to daylight in front of my car now.
Moving to the interior, now have put in some fusion 6.5" speakers in the rear using the factory wires. Upgraded the front speakers to Kenwood and next on the list is a slimline sub install under the rear seats and a new head unit.
Black duck canvas seat covers and RM Williams deep dish bucket matts provide some protection from the nasty stuff we 4WDers get covered in.
In the near future I'm having some sidestep/sliders and side rails made as well as some new suspension components to replace the sagged ones I currently have. A dual battery is also high on my list of priorities as I just today purchased an Ironman fridge freezer for the rear seat. Also I'm going to redo the tray as the foam board looks crapola.
Thanks for reading

. Color is plum if I'm not mistaken. There's another xcab in the same color floating around the builds. Sliders are a good idea, looks as though the current ones came pre-dented
