What is the most rare T4WD option/accessory?

[dlb]

In some lucky Tercels, the cup holders pulled out from the centre console. I have only seen them in automatics. I think it was in place of the small shelf that normally appears below the single din stereo, but I'm not sure about that. It's been a long time since I've seen one.

Wasn't available in '85- only on A/T equipped '87 and '88 tercel wagons. Not sure about '86's (never had one.) They mount just above the radio.

I'm pretty new to T4WDs, but I've been in the Kyusha scene for a while now. I was wondering what other forum members thought was the most rare part for the Tercel? Was there ever a brush guard offered? Does anyone have period correct aftermarket wheels on their wagon?

Pics are good too!

Brush Guard: YES! Various markets including USA in 1983, don't have much pics though.
Cruise Control (Auto Drive): USA market, February 1985
Automatic Transmission on SR5 models: JPN market only starting in October 1983
Automatic A/C: JPN market only starting in August 1982 also shortly offered for Low DLX model during the same month and year

Cruise was not an option in 84, it was not available until 1986

Strange...my 85 has it. I think it became an option with the 2nd gen of the wagons. The 85-88s.

There was no 2nd gen of the wagons, just a 2nd period - AUG 84 to MAY 86 for most of the world except specific GEN destinations and AUG 84 to AUG 86 for USA/CND models. The Cruise Control (Auto Drive) came out first in Feb 85. I have a screenshot of proof of that if you wanna see?

here is the cup holder. I got it out of a 2wd hatch back thinking I could make it work, not sure it will fit now becasue the 4wd tunnel is larger. Anyone that wants to try is welcome to it, $25 plus shipping.

The it mounts over the radio. Those are the radio side mounts on it.

Only was found in Automatic Transmission models but would be cool in a stick shift model

When I converted my '87 4WD A/T wagon to M/T, I retained the cup holder. Does not interfere with the stick shift operation.
