We learned this the hard way too, went through two rounds of cheap crates before finally committing to sourcing from an actual manufacturer. The cost difference upfront felt significant but compared to replacing cracked crates every year it's not even close in the long run.

Totally agree mate! Finding a trustworthy place for Toyota maintenance in Dubai can be tricky but 800Sayara nailed it for me. Last time I went in for an oil change and AC check they were super thorough explained every detail clearly and everything was done with genuine Toyota specs. No surprises on the bill either which is rare. My Prado feels solid now and I keep going back. Great choice for anyone who wants peace of mind with their Toyota.
