Spent mega bucks on new coded/remote key and got a couple of non coded key (entry only). Few days after getting new key, sorting out gear, shoved hand thru sleeve of Gore-Tex jacket (has pull in sleeve cuffs) and yep keys fell out on the ground (now 3 coded). Stuff.
Now, always when up bush or stressed, have a non coded key hanging around my neck and stays there. Coded keys in safe place (not in my pocket).
Long live the spare-key-lanyard!!!
My advice is: not to follow my advice.

Saves so much time, was always feeling to see if I had them (keys that is). Now I don't have to worry about them falling onto the ground after trying to hide them up in the bull bar somewhere and making sure no one is watching "paranoid" no more..lol

Went a fair way to loose those key there mate. Would have been a great time though I recon. Did you have spare keys?

Just finished fitting up a Kaymar OzBar I picked up second hand. Don't have any swingaway's yet. Everything fitted up flawlessly, direct bolt on.
To me it sits a bit too low, as in the gap between body and bar is a bit much. But it's spot on according to fitting instructions. And regardless, physically cannot be altered up or down anyway.
Just gotta get a flasher relay now, as my indicators are going nuts due to the LED lights in the bar. I'd prefer that to the resistor packs.

What did you do to your Patrol today!
Looks good Hodge
I’m looking at my car with sad eyes as soon I’m trading it in and I don’t really want to but that’s life sometimes.
Unless someone wants to buy it prior, let me know

Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
