What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

First pic here

 

Got these bad boys in thanks to @VLocos24! Awesome guy to work with and made sure they didn't get damaged in shipping. Now I can't wait until I can get them wired up Sunday!

 

Yes sir, WD 40 has many great uses. I actually use it on my kayaks. It's a good protectant for plastic surfaces, it keeps the plastic from becoming brittle under the sun.

. I've been meaning to get a dash cam but this works out lol

 

I picked her up at the dealer and brought her home... (well, to work for now).

 

Blacked out badge, added 4x4 badge, reflective Tacoma decals, claymore hitch cover.... It's the little things

 

from their FAQ section:

What surfaces or materials are OK to use

WD-40 Multi-Use Product Spray with Smart Straw, 12-Ounce

WD-40 Multi-Use Product on?
WD-40 Multi-Use Product can be used on just about everything. It is safe to use on metal, rubber, wood and plastic. It can also be applied to painted metal surfaces without harming the paint. Poly carbonate and clear polystyrene plastic are among the few surfaces on which to avoid using a petroleum-based product like WD-40 Multi-Use Product.

 

Wd40 works really well for removing duct tape residue...

 

No problem man! I'll post some photos when I get them hooked up. I want others on here to know about the good honest sellers since there's been problems with people getting ripped off.

 

Just be sure to re-wax in the area any of the WD40 touched! I've used WD40 as a solvent paired with a magic eraser on paint transfer and it works great for that too. Just a bit of 3M polishing compound to get out any fine scratches in the clear coat and a quick wax after that.

 

Never done much research into wax. My Harley is a matte black, so I don't polish it, and I have never really waxed my vehicles unless its a spray on wax. Are there advantages to using a paste wipe on/buff out vs spray? I never really noticed results with the spray stuff.

 

And removing the adhesive residue from emblems

 

can i ask you a huge favor and send me the pdf that you have for the bed light switch. im trying to hook up a rear facing light that works in tandum with the bed light

 

Truck is at Toyota of Orange for its first service.

Requested a oil change and all the other things we've all heard.

Just got off the phone with them. Transmission was low and they are running test now to see if there is a issue with it.

They've had to rebuild two since the beginning of the year at this place.

So due to that, they are documenting everything to cover themselves if any issues arise.

 

FYI WD40 is Water Displacement #40

 

I go to the same dealer. They are great there. Got to know one of the techs there on first name basis. Great dealership to work with

 

Blacked out the front grill until I can decide on what I want on there. Plasti dip. Thank you Toyota for making that easy!

 

I totally dig the claymore hitch cover!

 

Have you ever tried http://www.walmart.com/ip/Meguiar-s-Ultimate-Quik-Wax/16550248

Really does the trick on my black Tacoma.

 

It sounds like you have amazing service there, you are very lucky!
