So, I prepared device description and compiled install instructions. Unfortunately, I was unable to attach it here as pdf too big (350K). If you do not mind I post it as the link to google doc.
Sorry in advance if there are spelling mistakes .
Feel free to comment if something is unclear with the instructions.

It seems that CJ3Flyr is busy a little bit. I tried to contact him privately, but got no response as well.
So, the mod cost is 60$ + shipping. It includes the block and LED. Install instructions could be found above.
I am ready to ship first two items without prepayment. If those blocks worked fine I would expect payment via paypal. If something wrong with them and you are not happy with the mod - simply ship it back. All your looses would be few dollars for shipping in this case.
Volunteers?

25 Rub. A little bit less that a dollar.
I guess it means that the mod too expensive, huh?

According to on-line EMS Russian post calculator it is about 3-5$. The block weights nothing, so, it is cheap.

Judging from the limited response maybe the price is a little high. Hard to say. I'd be interested in biying one but don't know when I'd get to installing it. Might take me a while to have the time so I wouldn't want people waiting for me to give them a review. You could also post on Toyota 120 forum as some there might be interested as well. I may buy one to try out anyway as I could really use it.

i think alot would like to have this but the average person may not be too keen on or have enough confidence to splice all those wires into the factory stuff.

Yeah, it does look somewhat involved. I'm not interested as I already did the mod and only spliced one wire. Doesn't bother me that the center diff light lights up when I hit the switch, I know it's not locked.

Sorry if you've mentioned it but I didn't see it... how does this work with 2wd? Can you just turn it on in 2wd and have it work or do you need to switch to 4wd first then on then 2wd like the original mod?

2 chaz: Valid point. The only thing I would like to note that if you succeeded with VSC ECU wire connection under steering column in original mod, you would definitely succeed with other connections.
2 00328: I agree that you as a driver always know what is the state of center diff and might ignore the light on dash. As for me, if there is a way to avoid misleading info - I'd rather do that.
2 rdrunner: To be honest, I've never thought about 2wd with the mod. Personally, I can see no usage for it in our terrain. Anyway, It will work exactly like the original.
Thank you for advice with Toyota 120 forum... Wanted to register there long time ago but had no need.
From my point of view the price is reasonable. It will hardly fall.

Too bad. For me being able to quickly disable it in 2wd would be very nice. For instance pulling out on a busy street from gravel when your back wheels hit the street the inside wheel slips a bit and vsc kicks in. Now your pulling into traffic at a virtual crawl.

It makes sense... Will think about the way to hack ECU for 2wd...
