Hey everyone, has anyone checked out the latest gear popping up for the 70 Series lately? I was out on a weekend trip up the coast last month, hauling the camper trailer, and kept wishing my towing mirrors were a bit more adjustable without all the vibration messing with the view. Ended up staring at blurry reflections half the drive—super annoying when you're trying to merge safely with a big load behind you. Wondering if there's anything fresh in the market for better visibility or maybe some interior tweaks like those slide-out cup holders that actually stay put on bumpy tracks. What's new catching your eye these days for making these old beasts more livable on long hauls?

Yeah, I hear you on the towing mirrors—mine were stock forever until I swapped to some MSA ones that rotate both ways, made a massive difference for trailer towing without the constant shake. For the 70 Series especially, they've got options that feel sturdy and don't fog up as bad in the wet. Lately I've been eyeing those higher amp alternators too, since my setup with lights and fridge was draining the battery quicker than I'd like on multi-day trips. The interior stuff like magnetic armrests or those console upgrades keeps things tidy without looking too aftermarket flashy. You can poke around https://cruiserstore.au/ if you're curious about what's actually available right now—personally I think their range hits the sweet spot for practical upgrades without breaking the bank, just my two cents from someone who's tinkered with a few LandCruisers over the years. No pressure though, it's all about what fits your rig and adventures best.
