What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks!! I'm really happy with this solution. Keeps the engine bay clean and un cluttered. SDHQ makes this mount. Like the rest of their stuff, it's very well thought out. Don't believe it's on their website yet but if you call and talk to Cliff @tubbsisland he'll get you set up

 

Thanks man! Looking at the SP8100 now. Might have to pull the trigger

 

It's from Southern Style Offroad. http://www.southernstyleoffroad.com/product/2016-tacoma-slimline-hybrid-bumper/?v=7516fd43adaa

You basically just remove the black center portion. The cutting is a 5-minute job with a Dremel and a ripsaw blade. See thread here:

You won't be disappointed! I did the sp8200b and I love it! The blue back lighting is a perfect match and for someone with ocd like myself, it's a clean, practical and simple solution to run multiple accessories

This is their dash mount, laser etched with the American flag

 

Oh dang, that is fancy! And very, very clean. I'll check out that model. That mounting plate is pretty nice!

 

SDHQ makes some awesome stuff!! I couldn't be happier. As I fill it up with more outputs, it'll just get cleaner and more factory looking. Nice to have all outputs in one central area... An added bonus is its Bluetooth connectivity and app.. gives you the ability to control all outputs from outside the vehicle, remotely from your phone

 

Weird, the 8200 B looks to be either discontinued or I'm just not able to find it...I found it on Amazon, who says it's currently unavailable with no eta of restocking. Where'd you buy yours, if you don't mind me asking?

 

I believe this is the newest model as the blue back light option is a pretty recent release. I got mine from SDHQ. They have them in Stock and since they are only 20 minutes away from me, it was easy.. But they do ship and I believe they have this particular model on their website

 

I think I'll have to give them a call tomorrow. I don't see the 8200 B on their site, just the 8100. No worries, thanks for all the info!

 

No problem man. Yeah call and talk to Cliff. He's the resident Tacoma guru and he'll take good care of you. Tell him Jerry sent you

Looking for the same mirrors, will order soon. How did you take off the original mirrors? Hard to pry off? I am afraid not to damage the original mounting bracket and be forced to replace the whole mirror assembly.
Are the RAV4 mirrors identical in shape with the OEM original installed? or close match?.

 

For sure! Cheers again. I'll post up a photo of it once it's all installed. Sounds like a good sue of my christmas bonus haha

 

Ha ha ha, the best use!! Seriously though, if you're gonna be running a lot of accessories, it's the best way to go

 

Gave that bitch some solar. Bitches love solar.





Details in build thread (link in sig).

 

Plus, a mini awning! That's pretty legit. My buddy has a front runner rack on his shell. Going to have to show him this. Good stuff!

 

Thanks! Mini-awning, lol, yeah. I'll be putting a proper 4" wide awning on the rear of the truck sometime soon. My tent also has a large awning up front, so I should be all good in that department very soon!

I'm somewhat tempted to add some long, narrow, enclosed containers (tubes?) in the other free space under this rack. Got to put it to use somehow!

 

Traded it in

 

If I were to trade I'd go that route. Solid choice.

 

I believe they like money mostly, but I could be wrong. Solar might be second.

 

I didn't wanna seem like a douche when i posted that but i felt like i was having an affair and not speaking up lol. Ive had it for a week now. I liked the tacoma a lot i really did but I've been having a crush on the 4runner for quite some time now and had to own one. Honestly its slightly above my means and i was actually pushing it with the tacoma but ill eventually catch up and be out of poverty soon. Its got everything the taco had, crawl, multi terrain etc.. minus the push button start and thats going to take some time getting used to. Fully boxed frame, 4.0, problem free tranny and built in japan. I do have an atv that needs hauling every 2 months or so but i can easily get a hitch carrier for that. I love it and if anyones thinking of making the switch, i highly reccomend it
