Ignition light mod and some other goodies I picked up today.

Today I went to the local scrapyard and picked some parts outta a 2000 4Runner that was C4C.

I got a ignition light ring that fits perfect where the tacoma one goes.


Tweeter pods for the Triangle part of the door by the mirrors.




A big TOYOTA logo off a 95ish Toyota Pickup. Satoshi maybe

 

Of course Satoshi! I think that would look sick man. Wish I could make good junkyard finds like that around here. Much luck with your mods, be sure to post pics of the goodness after the fact.

 

What do you guys think of using the 00 Prerunner grille for a satoshi?

 

i cant say ive ever seen that done before, but im not sure as to how it would turn out. the <01s arent really my specialty but i think it would be pretty decent.

i just wish i found cool stuff like this at junkyards. in all of massachusetts, ive found 2 gen 1 tacomas. both are about 1 1/2 hours away in opposite directions.

 

Did you get those tweeter pods out of a 4runner?

 

yes sir and they fit perfect.

 

Oh man, i gotta have one of these, time for the junk yard crawl!! Nice call.

 

Thanks. I want to get the tweeter pods and the ring. I use to have a 91 camry with one of those in it I loved that light.

 

For the ignition ring I spliced into the clocks power wires (since my truck did'nt come with a clock)

 

Wouldn't you want to wire it into your dome lights so it comes on when you open the door? That is how I would wire it, unless you want it on all the time.

 

I know in my old car the ring would stay on for a while after I got out of the car. I never stood there and timed it so I don't know how long it lasted. Not sure how you would hook it up to do that either. But if i was going to install it i would hook in with the door/dome light.

 

i wanna say ten seconds, maybe 15

 

Want it on all the time

 

Forgive this resurrection. Are there any more details on the illuminated key ring? Any other parts needed? Any part numbers.? All other info is appreciated

So you didn't have to change the bezel on the Tacoma? Did you just take the old part off around the ignition and add the new on from the 4Runner with the bezel?

 

What does C4C mean? When you said you got the ignition light ring out of a 2000 4Runner C4C

 

What bout that black grommet? Would I have to buy the whole bezel? I can't find the grommet part number

 

I hate to raise this thread from the dead but I haven't seen anyone else do this mod.

Did you need to replace the whole key or can you just add the light ring? Also what did you wire it to?
