My experience is they want to keep their trucks meticulously stock. There was a young fellow from Qatar who was going to college locally and I spent some time with him. He shared with me several reproduction parts that were supposed to be exact duplicates of the originals that the middle east buyers rejected because they had found a small difference. Maybe someone who has pictures from a truck show in the middle east could post them. It is amazing to see how many trucks they have there.
