    Nice!

    How does it sound? Sound clip?

    How is the cabin drone?

    Thanks! That's a tennis ball hanging from the ceiling in the garage. I put it up there to help my ex park in the garage.

    Sound great! Really kicks in at about 30 mph with minimal cabin drone. Not noticeable with windows up, but sweet sound with window down.

    I did the fog light mod. The one I did is different from the any time mod. This one allows you to only turn on the fogs with the low beam and high beam.

    Here is the link that I followed
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/diy-fog-lights-on-with-high-beams-brights-free.214484/

    I also finally fixed the oem fog light switch itself. The light inside the switch had burnt out.

    Here is the link that I followed for that
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/how-to-replacing-2nd-gen-fog-light-switch-bulb.361300/

    Difference being that somewhere in there they mentioned buying the bulb from radioshack for a fraction of the cost compared to the toyota dealer.

    Below is a pic of the bag as well as the bulb itself that comes in the bag. The oem bulb had an orange silicone sleeve so I transfered that over to the new bulb.





    I had almost forgotten that the switch is even supposed to illuminate since it has been out for so long.

    I also finally added my logo to the shallow satoshi grill!

    Ha... lets see
    Changed the spark plugs @ 190,000 or so, several wheel bearings were done(front and rear),leaf springs, brakes, changed 2 diffs and transfer case fluid once so far, speed control comes and goes, AC gone for now, front springs replaced(plow weight),oil every 5,000, tires etc. Oh ya... serpentine belt (make sure belt hits EVERY pulley groove exactly)
    Radio good days and bad.
    Auto trans with tow package.

    I tow a two horse trailer most weekends during the summer, plow in the winter and drive 100 miles round trip to work daily (highway)
