    I will probably be doing some of the DIY mods too, like the lighted glove box and center console mods. I'm a big fan of the Scion TC 16" antenna mod too.

    Sounds good so far man. I like the shifter knob that's pretty cool.

    Thanks! Tad pricey for a screw on shift knob, but I really like it. I looked at all kinds including the FJ Cruiser ones since it also uses the same threads as the Tacoma. Here are some pics. Although it looks like its the day in the pics its just the LEDs in the map and dome lights.
