Anyone know where I can buy a spark arrestor for my 93 Prado?

Thats what I was thinking but noone I\'ve asked so far knew what gauge the gauze needed to be...

Or perhaps an old flyscreen door around

Thats all I used, cut a few into squares and then I had spares :lol:

Tea Strainer was $5 so ended up ordering an inline arrestor that is screwed inside the exhaust so can be left in all year round - $15

ok it arrived but doesnt fit, so am making one, just waiting for the stainless steel welding rods. Am using the gauze they use on ships that doesnt allow flame through, you can take a blow torch on full blast and put it 10mm away and no fire gets through only heat

really cool. Tried welding it up, but need some special rods, so waiting for those....
