What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

2016 RAV4 side view mirrors.
Trying out the driver side first.
It has heating element too.
Top mirror is the Tacoma
Bottom is the RAV

 

I live about 45 mins from the shop, i was able to drive down and pick it up.

This rack also has mounts for Rotopax, Hi-Lift and quick fists for tools.

 

Not many seem to mention if they're supporting themselves outside of their car payment. If you are late teens/early 20s living at home while your parents pay the mortgage, for your food, cell phone, etc. and you say you can afford a brand new truck, I think there are better things you could be doing with your money. If you are supporting yourselves, have a job, and can afford a truck at that age, that is awesome.

Note: This is coming from a person who wishes they would have been more wise with their money when I was young and buying things I didn't really need.

 

Hey, whatever puts food on the table.

 

Great looking truck! Where did you get that grille? Badass!!

 

Bamf recessed grill

 

Raptor grill is in...got the LED lights placed too but didnt have proper connections and wire at work to wire them up..should get theM done tomorrow. Love the new face lift though

Also removed that ugly front valence they put on for "aerodynamics" honestly dont care if i loose 2mpg because of that hideous thing

 

The grapplers look sweet. Much road noise?

 

I'll chime in.. I'm 26, first in my family to go to college, let alone graduate (degree is mechanical engineering). I have bought 2 houses, my 17 tacoma and my wife's 16 honda crv. no kids yet, planning for next year. Oh and I paid my way through school. I am definitely blessed.

 

I would think you hold the high hand in this. Maybe a set of sliders or at least a bed mat comped for your troubles

 

Which LED lights do you guys use? And what do you wire them up to?

Curious cuz I want to do the same with my grille

 

Me too... BUT there's always seems to be some jackhole who thinks they're funny by parking right next to me (instead of one stall away)!

Prob. the same numbnuts that take the urinal/shitter next to yours when there's more further away

 

For grill light? I used these

 

Installed TRD PRO grille.
Removed air dam. (Looks taller)
And installed TRD PRO shift knob.

2 little exterior changes that made the truck look completely different.

Shoutout to Jordan over at @Titus_Will_Toyota, grille came perfectly packaged with lots and lots of bubble wrap and arrived very fast.

 

Does it feel solid? It looks like there is 1 less clip on the rav mirror. I think this is a cool mod

 

I hear what your saying...don't really need or want anything...was an accident..new bumper and it will be good to go.
I will say they are not balking at my pending laundry list;
1. New headliner - ordered (was separating above drivers door, too short)
2. New speedometer - ordered (had the intermittent tripometer reset)
3. AT transmission fluid - checked, was full
4. TSB 00716- rev 1 - (done just because)
And yes...
5. New front bumper ordered
Cheers

 

Yes it's solid. It's held on by four clips just like the original mirror.

 

I'm 26 with a 17 sport and a 16 Highlander and have a kid. I work at Toyota though so the discount is nice.

 

Can you do a DIY for this swap? That blind spot mirror is priceless!

 

Weird. You got it murdered out, yet you have chrome fog rims. Looks kinda strange. But I'm sure there is
a logical reason.
