    It's a prototype military tire that is pretty cool. Watched a video from the teaser for it. Absorbed the terrain all the way to the center hub and doesn't get flat.

    I thought it was from the FJ Cruiser, but I double checked the part number a few weeks ago and it's from a 70 series Land Cruiser (FJ70).

    They are still available, about $45.

    Ya. Michelin has been playing with the technology for about 7 years now. They're hoping to get it into Earth Movers and expect a huge weight savings.

    No more TPMS, no more worry about nails or glass.

    I added radio controls and Bluetooth controls to my steering wheel. Now I just need to piece together the stuff I am missing for an 09-11 JBL conversion to use the Bluetooth.

    Took a little drive up to an ATV park in North GA and rode the Polaris for a few hours with my wife and little girl and had a blast - couldn't ask for better weather in January!

    Where is that steering wheel from? Never seen a 2nd Gen with one like that.

    Looks like my wife's Rav4 shape, but hers is all black.

    It's from an 07-12 Camry SE. It's all leather and feels soooo much better than the original one.

    I think it matches the interior quite nicely with the silver inserts in the spokes.

    Spent 8.5 hours today completely cleaning the interior and exterior of truck, including waxing and lubing the weather stripping on body and doors. Wife thinks I'm nuts for all of that, but it really needed it.

    It's fogs anytime WITHOUT having to worry about leaving them on when you turn your truck off. Just keeps them on whenever you turn your brights on if they're on. Check my sig for more details. :cool:

    Thought it might be but wasn't sure.

    I thought it may have been a 4-high mod for aftermarket projectors.

    I may put it on next weekend, I think I like it better on though!

    Not a fan of the devil horns on the satoshi, shortly putting all 3 Hellas behind the grill and then putting an LED light bar on where the lights are currently.

    Thanks for the input good sir!

    Hahaha if I don't use it, I shall let you know bud

    Looks good buddy! How'd you adhere the logo to the mesh??

    What he said down below! Bought it off a member here about a year ago.

    This is correct!


    AND IT'S DONE!!!!!!
