    Hey, just got an 07' tacoma a few days ago, absolutely love it. New to the forum too, so just saying hi. Glad to be a proud tacoma driver like all of you now!

    Also, has anybody had any trouble with the latch for the hood on their car? On mine it doesn't give you much of room to put your fingers under when you open it. Just wondering if any of you have come across that problem.

    Cheers

    Welcome Ty. Took me awhile to figure out that reach through the grill thing too. But this is a great place to find answers to questions like that.

    Not sure yet. Just a camper shell at this point, not really a mod though. In the future possibly something though
