What JDM parts were produced/available that U.S. didn't get?
Recently delved into the idea of a JDM inclinometer for my 'Runner, leads me to wonder what other parts may be across the pond that we didn't get here. Most of my buddies didn't even KNOW 2nd gens had an inclinometer. What else is there? I love having hard-to-find options.

I met someone with a JDM Surf and had a look underneath. There was a sticker on the rear axle that clearly said in bold red letters "LSD". I can only assume that as a limited slip, and it would make sense to put a sticker on the axle so limited slip additive would be added when servicing. Anyone able to confirm or deny that there was a limited slip option for 2nd Gen Hilux Surfs?

Yeah, I read somewhere earlier today, that a good number of the overseas Yotas came with LSD's.
Say, what does the "SSR-X" mean/stand for?

some other options included a "field monitor" [an electronic compass thingy there are threads about them here]
depending on the year/market either solid orange front corner lenses [jdm] or lens with integrated turn signal repeaters, or front fender mounted turn signal repeaters[euro/aussie].
various styles of factory "bull bars"
factory vent visors
some markets got factory installed emergency kits,
