What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Yep. Performix Brand from Home Depot. And while looking at it online, I realized that they have glossifier for plasti dip. May be an interesting option

 

Installed my Console Vault. I'm quite pleased with this purchase. It took me about 10 minutes to install it. (I'm

$18 Vehicle OCD - Center Console Organizer for Toyota Tacoma (2005-2015) - Made in USA

selling my console organizer as a result, $20 shipped CONUS, PM me if you are interested.)



Here's my iPhone 4S mount. Dash mount is from

$30 Panavise Custom InDash Mount for Toyota Tacoma '05-07

Panavise and the device holder is from ProClip (I think my model has been discontinued). Since the bottom of the device holder is a pass-through connector, I bought a nice 1" USB charging cable and a 1" AUX audio cable. The AUX cable is great. I no longer have to use the headphone jack on the phone, so it is a cleaner looking install. I also don't have to mess with the input source (headphone jack vs. Bluetooth) when I make a call or use Siri.



Next up, is to install my new powered Pop & Lock tailgate lock.

 

Those console vaults are so badass

 

Pics!

 

Hmmm.pic is getting cut off

 

Works for me, and nice!

 

Good save, glad it wasnt worse than that

 

I did that, but I have to say that cutting in all that 3M tape was a tedious chore, too.

 

This. Take them off with some fishing line, paint them, and then put them back on.

 

Installed some goodyear duratracs and a bug deflector.

 

How'd you do it? I was imagining just running strips across and using a new razor blade against a piece of plywood or cardboard and tracing the letters out with the razor to remove excess tape. Would think it wouldn't be more than a few minutes per badge this way but I've not done it.

 

Looks nice csayno!

Did you jump to 265 Duratrac? what size/load range are they?

 

Thanks!

Yessir, 265/75/16. C Load!

 

Plastidipping badges is super easy. Just get some painters tape and make a border around the letters while they are on the truck, with about a 1/2-1 inch area around the letters to start to peel it off. Use some extra tape to expand it outwards, because otherwise you will be cleaning overspray off. After your coats are done, start to peel it off from the edge of the tape, going slow around the letters. Took me about 5 mins per badge, no toothpicks/razor knives etc.

 

Ordered 4 pairs of these 6 watt LEDs to use as undercarriage/rock lights.

Been looking for an affordable solution, and at about $5 a pair, this may be the answer.

 

Talking about painting them. derp is a different process

 

Seems like a good alternative for bed lights, no?

 

And this way my truck stays derp free which is how I want it

 

Gotcha. I just like it better because if you don't like it, or want to change it, peel it off. Plus, if you want a gloss finish, you can do that too.
