And that's where written guarantee on the receipt kill all doubts, misinformation, lies and shenanigans.

Fabric may look same but it has lot of difference as the foam or the rough area at back is the secret to hold the glue. And not just the glue or the application. Thing that fails in UAE heat is the foam behind the fabric and not just glue alone. I'd go with 5 year warranty guy if you intend to keep the car for a long time, as you also need to factor the downtime and inconvenience of leaving the car for few days and not alone the cost.

Wonderful trip report @Wrangeld that left me and sri with lots of less words in our trip reports, if we still feel necessary to write on lazy Saturday evening. Many Thanks @Srikumar, @Frederic, @Lucky sAm, @Wrangeld, @Obaid.Sultan.1987, @Ale Vallecchi, @Jeepie, @Xaf, @Rizwanm2, @Edward Davies, @AKR, @Adam Marston, @Amit0103, @tjsingh, @Brette, @Mahmoud Hamzawy, @Seldon, @Matti Brockman, @Joe Biju Joseph, @IMAMP, @adelishakk, @Kavindu Avanka, @Tbone, @Junaid Khalid, @Martin., @Mostafa Taha For waking up early and showing up on the meeting point on and before time. I truly love when people are on time to respect each other time. This was my first drive after a long break and I was equally charged up and waiting to see the dunes and new faces after a long time. Looks like Carnity wanted to welcome my Pajero come-back with so many new faces that I think it was a second biggest turn out for the newbie drive with 28 cars. With the help of rain and hard surface, all newbie got a leverage to learn at a much discounted rate and everyone did wonderfully great within their vehicle capabilities and attentiveness during the briefing. I really appreciate everyone's patience and enthusiasm to learn off-roading in a proper structured manner than just hitting the dunes blind-folded. Few minutes of reading, listening and slow pace drive might look boring in the beginning, but I bet as you slowly climb the ladder you will appreciate the slow and steady learning curve. All our off-road briefings are kept to bare essential to get started as fast as we can, so that remaining part newbies can learn on the drive, during the recoveries and by observing the technical recoveries. I highly recommend every newbie to go through each pinned topic on the offroad club homepage: https://carnity.com/clubs/off-road-club and general discussion section: https://carnity.com/forums/forum/588-discussions to learn more about what we aren't able to share and explain in the morning briefing. These topics will answer lot of your curious questions and put you in a right track if you wish to pursue further: How to get promotions? What are different level of drives? What all offroad and safety gears are required? What is Carninty grading structure and how to get offroad certification? Please share your feedback that will help us learn new things from newbie perspective:

Whatever you choose go with the one offering the maximum guarantee. No brainer. Why should you TRUST there words and empty promises when they cant Trust their own workmanship.

Allow RHD cars in Dubai, so I can buy actual Pajero EVO. Allow different engine swap, so we can have more fun without guilt. Allow all modifications (of course quality ones) so we can mod cars to our heart desire. I'm sure next day, they will fire me after those three changes, lol.

This is a good site for calculating tire sizes https://tiresize.com/calculator/

Thanks Matti, is your steel bumper has a tow hooks in front and back? As looping the rope might tear the rope.

Well actually Humvee are not even H2, it's name given for H1 only - real military grade with zero comfort

I came across same stuff, as people who remove, clean and reuse same fabric with new foam charges less as oppose to who use new fabric with new foam. So get the same quote from all guys to compare and ask them to show sample cars or car pics of the job they have done. If done by amateur, it might spoil the interior and it might sag again soon.

Go here: https://goo.gl/maps/9NbapZTbqmhttbXq8 And drive straight in service lane, there must 20-30 shops dealing only with tires and rims. Btw, my contact of Pajero scrap parts do keep the old shape spare parts and I am not 100% sure if he can help you with your request, but worth calling him and check.
