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

Before and after. Dads truck

 

Extended the AC drain hose to keep it from dripping down the frame rail.

 

I love that grill. Looks classy

 

Great idea. Where did you get that?

 

I found it on eBay for a Corolla.

 

Plug and play. Just need to tweak the contacts in the light sockets with a pick or a small flat blade screwdriver.

 

Started snowing pretty good. Me and my 3yo were so excited, we took it for a drive.

 

For people that are changing their reverse lights with 35w, are they not having any issues with melting? Or is this only on the 50w? I want to do this but I can't imagine it doing much if your quick to get out of reverse. Also, are people doing anything with the brake lights with stock housings or no? Just curious
Thanks in advance

 

Yeah, I think the melting issues happen with the 50w because of extended use. But even though I don't stay in reverse long, I still went with the 35W . Just to be safe. No melting issues for me. I've had them in for a while.

 

Cool

 

Thanks. Im happy with how it turned out. Looks like a different truck.

 

I have 35s and have accidentally left my key on acc several times with the truck in reverse for prolonged periods of time (1/2 hour+) with no problems.

 

My perimeter lights. Pretty bright and light up a pretty good area. I am pleased with them. Also added some Christmas spirit to the truck.

I went with the 50W due to the low time usage. I had to trim the posts and trim some of the glass off of the bottom corners of the bulb to get them to fit in the socket. They are a lot brighter than the CSJumper LED Reverse Lights that I bought in 2013.

 

Installed my CabRac, Heretic 40" and Pelican 1720s. Now my OCD has me sodering and shrink wrapping the wire looms and connectors. Still waiting on my @RECHELON headlights and my tail lights from @TRSAndrew

 

Thanks! for that info because my 35's are on the way, and I was a little nervous, now I'm grinning!

 

Looking good! How are the Pelican cases secured to your rack?

 

8 5/8" bolts and series 10 nuts with the ball bearing, drilled through each of the 8 oval feet and used a big flat washer and sealed it back up. Not that it would ever leak up there anyways. All and all it was a pain in the ass because my ODC wanted the crossbars perfectly spaced and drilling holes to match took some time and thought... @Maximus
