6 extras you should fit on a new Toyota Land Cruiser 70 Series
The Toyota Land Cruiser is primed for customisation by owners. You will be hard-pressed to find one in standard guise, and if you do find one, you're free to fit whatever you want, but we recommend these accessories.
Offroad accessories
Toyota's Land Cruiser 70 series is engineered to last four times as long as a regular car. Toyota knows that these vehicles will be utilised in the harshest conditions. It is almost a given that not a single one remains standard as the owners almost always modify or add aftermarket accessories.

1. Seat Covers
Protect the velour-clad standard seats in your Land Cruiser with a set of hardy canvas seat covers, water resistant, mudproff and dog approved, these seat covers are a lifesaver.
2. Fashion Bar
Not purely functional, the fashion bar improves looks and can save the roof line when long loads such as pipes and wood planks need to be carried. It also makes a good place to mount spotlights and rifle stays for hunting.

4. Weather Guards
Weather guards are a bit of a throwback to the 80's, but there's a reason they are still around. These window trims prevent rain from getting inside when the window is cracked open and reduce wind buffeting when driving at speed.

A staple around the farm, the cattle rail extends the bedsides upwards, allowing you to carry taller loads from teh fields or even load small livestock.
6. Step Sills
A set of chrome step sills will make sliding into your Land Cruiser a little easier and keep rocks from damaging your paintwork.
