    Are they from the same vehicle?

    Here's a little challenge...

    Attached are pictures of 3 air vents.

    Do they come from the same make of vehicle?

    Perhaps its just different trim levels?

    Maybe it's different vehicles in the range?

    They certainly look reasonably similar!

    So can you tell what they are from?

    IIRC they're also used in toyotas, mazdas and possibly nissan maximas - possibly S15 200SX's too

    Looked at them, thought how bad they'd look in my 2A, then had a "Dundee-esque" thought...

    "That's not an air vent....."

    This should liven the discussion up:

    The right hand one is a Toyota RAV4

    The middle one is the Puma Defender SVX

    Now what could the left hand one possibly be from?

    ... believe me it will come as a surprise

    I suppose I should reveal why I posted this up. Things aren't always what they appear and some car parts don't really alter despite what the vehicle is.

    I was expecting a few more guesses by now.

    Like I said:

    The right hand one is a Toyota RAV4
    The middle one is the Puma Defender SVX
    As for the left hand one, well its off something that is worth about 15 times the price of a Defender
    If you watched Australian Top Gear you would have seen one. Yep its the 2009 Lamborgini Mecilargo. My wife and I both commented during the show that the air vents looked remarkably like on our Defender.

    Looks like the parts bin for a lot of manufacturers is quite shallow!
