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

I never found that the gloss plasti dip spray did much... I've tried it several times and it was a minor difference at best.
I agree it is nice to do if you want to change it or don't like it.. i ended up just debadging mine though for the smooth look. Makes life so much easier when waxing.

 

You won't be disappointed with those lights. I have 6 pairs under the truck.

You have a switch inside your cab for them I assume? Got a write up or one you followed?

 

Yes, the switch is inside the cab. You can see how I ran them in this post.

I ran a dual conductor wire around the perimeter of the truck and tied each light into the hot and negative as I went around.

 

Im taking off my headers and cleaning up the rusted welds and coating them with high temp clear coat.
Hopefully they will hold up.

 

That looks awesome
Would you recommend as bed lights?

 

Are you too good for the derp? lol

 

That's my plan as well. Good to know others have used these with success.

 

Likey TRD can you link me where you purchased?

 

I have a couple of sets at the house that I'll be installing in the new bed once it's built. They put out a very nice diffused light so they should work great. And at $5 a piece you can't go wrong.

Yup, they work great. Good luck with your install.

They all seem to coming from China, and I'm in no hurry, so I ordered them through ebay.

Made it a little more utilitarian this afternoon.

 

Could you trim the organizer to fit the vault interior? Also, how much usable interior space do you give up with the vault?

Love my organizer but security of certain items in my console is a big concern of mine...

 

console vault is best mod to the truck... love mine

 

You probably could, but I think that it would be hard to use the furthest forward/rearward sections due to the height of the dividers and the "ceiling" of the vault. If that makes sense?

I don't think there is much space given up, per say, but the vault "top" covers up a lot of area, so it hinders things a bit. Again, if that makes sense?

For me, it is an acceptable trade off. I can now, IMO, safely keep a handgun in the truck at all times, as well as safeguard my dashcam, and various gear, without worry of theft.

As far as I can tell, a thief would have to put forth a LOT of effort to destroy/remove the safe. It is also suppose to prevent any prying open attempts. I have no emperical data to prove otherwise, but I do strongly feel that it would take a LOT of effort to remove or break open this safe.

 

Got a tool box at a little over half off from lowes today. It is hanging up in the garage drying where I painted it black.

Got the kobalt slim box. Had to drill one hole on each side to use the j hook method but at 75.00 I don't mind two small holes.
