Hi all,
Just found this with the aid of a link from prado point, but it relates to many other makes and models also.
It is a parts supplier.
Www.partsouq.com

If nothing else it was also great to be able to see all the exploded views to identify the parts

Got a quote today fromt toyota around the corner for new outer window weather seals for the prado and nearly fell over at the $865 quoted for the 4 of them 5 weeks to get them ex Japan.

Have just ordered these 4 plus the 2 back windows for $135 + 40 delivery from UAE.
Photos of other parts show them in original toyota packaging, so will let you know how I go.

Regards
Will

@MDS69 I'd be laughing at your comment. If I hadnt already done the same

The parts arrived yesterday as forecast.
All in toyota genuine packaging.
4weeks quicker than going through toyota dealer and less than a quarter of the price.
Now just need to fit them, will try and take a few pics in case anyone else has a similar job coming up
Regards
Will

And for those with a 120 prado here they are and how to fit them

part numbers for all six side windows

Before


With the front and rear doors there is a screw with a star drive to remove

Then just gently pull the end closest to the screw up from the door

then it is just a case of aligning the new screw hole and pressing the new ones in firmly untill they click

Rear windows were a little more tricky 1st need to remove the screw in the pop out clamp
then you can GENTLY open the window a little more than normal

3 tabs to pop up and a plug at the front to depress ( note you wont be able to easily get a new plug in)

then feed the new one in, align the holes and push down into place

replace the screw and youre done
finished all six in under an hour and was working it out as i went, wish i had done it before now as it was much easier than i expected

Very interesting, have to take a good look at it all. This is my favourite one in the USA, www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/ good prices and they can have it here in 5 days, better than dealers by about a month also.

Looks like a good one too @Drover
