    Installed RM Clutch and ammo can on bed divider so i dont have to keep taking out divider when the bikes are in. just push it up against the front of bed and the bikes still fit. then slide it back when theyre out so the dog can still ride back there.

    Spent more money today. Seems to be a ongoing theme with me and my truck.

    Bought a UltraGauge and installed it. I love this thing so far and I haven't even scratched the surface of what it will actually do. Install went perfect as they allowed "just" enough wire to mount it exactly where I wanted. I didn't buy the window mount because I didn't like the look of it on their site so I bought the swivel mount with the 3M tape and it worked out perfect.

    Then I bought a set of Nokya "Hyper Yellow" fog lights. I'll post better pictures tonight. I'm anxious to see how well they work

    Mind if ask where you picked up the 2012 radio at and how much it was? Also is it just a direct replacement to the factory radio that you replaced? I didn't know I "needed" a new radio but after seeing yours I think mine just broke ;)

    Thanks in advance.

    Great looking truck btw!

    So here are what the Nokya "Hyper Yellow" fog lights look like at night. I really dig the look especially from the side. As far as what they look like while inside the truck (I couldn't really get a good picture to show)... they are yellow instead of white that's about all I can say. I assume they will be better in the fog / dust? I dunno....

    But they look cool as shit!

    Lol I will definitely have to remember that line, "I didn't know I "needed" a new radio but after seeing yours I think mine just broke."

    I actually picked it up here. I paid $200 shipped. I only got it a few weeks ago and put it in as soon as I got it. It directly fit as you see in the picture but some people don't like how it does not sit flush with the 05-11 dash (I don't mind it).

    Here is the thread link:
    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/bu...-less-than-500-miles-sale-175obo-non-jbl.html

    As far as the electronic plugs go, the general use plugs are plug 'n' play. I am not able to use the bluetooth yet as it's giving me an error code that says I don't have a mic installed. That, and the touch screen, are the main reasons I purchased it so I will be looking into fixing it very soon. I just need to get a few other things accomplished first.

    Thanks for the kind words. I saw a post of yours earlier today and was thinking how nice yours was also.

    Wow! That's a hell of a deal. I'll have to keep an eye out for one because I definitely like how it looks in your truck. And yeah... the bluetooth and touchscreen would be the deciding factors for me as well. Hope you get it figured out.

    Have a good holiday weekend and thanks for the reply!
