    None YET...some to come.
    Those Tundra wheels look great on your truck. Never even crossed my mind that they could be used on the Tacomas. Good looking truck, of course, too.

    "Bulk Buy" Did you get a good price? I looked online they are about $275 for front seats and 275 for the rear. Do you remember who set up the bulk buy?

    Don't remember who set it up, but I ended up paying about $450 shipped for front and rear, so it was a nice little discount.

    Thanks man!

    Nice build! Gonna be setting my wifes truck up very similarly. Starting getting the parts ordered this week , should be doing the build in a couple months. Planning an epic 1 or 2 week build, we will see how that goes! What armor are you planning on using?

    Ok, small update today. Got the GPS and CB in.

    For the CB, I went with a Wilson 1000 antenna direct mounted in the roof (cutting sheet metal required) and a Cobra 25 unit in the truck. Mounted the microphone in a clip on the front of the center console to keep from crowding the dash or console storage and to allow me to quickly grab the mic by feel without looking.

    The cost of course was crowding the passenger's legs a little. Tough shit for them.

    If you look closely in the first pic you can see the stinger on the antenna. It's fucking ridiculous, something like 7 feet, but it's tuned PERFECTLY. I SWR 1.1 on channel 35 and 1.2 on channel 19. I think on channel 1 it's still 1.something...didn't bother to check.

    Didn't pull the headliner, just snaked the coax. from the antenna. Did all the cutting work outside, and mounted the coax from the inside by pulling the dome light and running arm up through the little hole.
    Then just pull the a-pillar trim and molding and route the cable. Make sure you stay ABOVE the curtain air bags if you have 'em.

    Stinger is removable, but the antenna is designed to whip. I can go under any limb that gives the roof of the cab 12" of clearance or more. Anything that's a tighter fit, I'll have to get out and remove it before doing the obstacle...no big deal, just unscrew and put in bed.

    The Wilson kit actually comes with a gasket set for just that purpose. You just lay it over the hole, route your coax, and tighten everything down.

    Bumper's not an issue much longer :D

    Looks good! Glad people are finally starting to invest in quality antennas!! Can't go wrong with the Wilson 1000! Just for reference the whip is 60" long.

    As far as the bumper goes.. we'll be taking care of that soon enough. :D

    I've got one hell of a pile of steel sitting here just waiting to kill your gas mileage! :thumbsup:
