If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay us to do it?

It will be interesting to see who can get the new ones retrofitted first. I guess we need a few new one written off before the seats are openly available. Interesting that the challenger offers the noise proofing. That would be a useful addition to the Triton too you would have thought.

I'd be more interested in fitting up the electric folding mirrors and roof-mounted antenna. I wonder if the new "dial type" height adjustment has a separate adjustment for the front and rear of the seat? 8-)

Not with the ABS/TC. The aerial was the easy bit

Yes I have no idea whether it was a "new" new Triton, or a slight update before the new model as mentioned in the opening post. There didn't appear any signs or info near the display

top picture looks like a current model gl-r except with new mirror indicators and side mouldings. same wheels as a gl-r, don't think they'd downgrade the glx-r to those... fugly things.
bottom pic looks like an update glx club cab, same grill, but has mirror indicators and side mouldings (previously only on glx-r), plus diff tub stickering (vehicle could also be another country's spec, ie, thailand or south america. usually stickering/badging differs market to market). note that 2013 update info was for glx-r only... lower models may not change as much, ie, retain a-pillar aerial ala rc colorado lt-r vs lx/dx). was at a dealership this week and had a 2012 glx dc and a 2013 glx dc next to each other... i didnt see anything diff between them...
