[Crispin]

How about mounting two of these on your dash at right angles?

Seem to be plenty. Go to http://play.google.com and search for inclinometer. For example this one.

Out of interest, what's a reasonable sideways limit of a stock 80 (mine isn't quite stock with 33" MTs) before rolling? I have some pretty steep hills I go across.

My 70 series came with inclinometers and an altimeter as standard!

I've just downloaded this one for my Galaxy S2, seems great cost £1.24 but you can choose from a selection of vehicle displays and the Land Cruiser 80 is one of them.

I forgot to say it has a settings function where you can change things to suit, it also reacts very quickly, at least it does just holding the phone, yet to be tested on or off the road.

Just before it falls over

Lots of stuff makes a difference, biggest variable is road surface and speed.

I have always found you tend to feel the point of no return is approaching long before it is.......... I've only tipped over a few vehicles but have been on the "edge" lots and lots of times, I stopped my vitara falling over by pushing very hard against the tree it was going to land on!
