    i have been recommended many devices for this task
    but most seem to be very lacking in the resolution dept.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I use a USB one with a super long cable that I got on Amazon. Has bright LEDs 800x600 resolution and you can attach whatever you need to it to get it where you need to see. Came with mirrors and magnets too. $22

    do you have pics/videos of what you viewed with it?

    If I can find the darn thing I'll take a couple. I don't typically need this tool much.

    it would be great if you can take internal shots of a frame to see what a 'clean' inside frame should look like!
    its super dark inside there

    $140 is quite a bit to shell out unless the resolution quality is magnitudes better

    It'll be a land cruiser frame but I'll give it a shot, I think I know where the thing is.

    I think they cut something open to get that picture, I don't believe I've ever seen a borescope that clear and focused

    i called the tech support at Eastwood where i found that pic and he was not sure what device was used to take that

    there may be plumber's tools like that but probably run into the 1000s of bones
