    Got my local detailer, who is an Xpel dealer/installer to apply the Xpel Ultimate (paint protection film) on the "Nose" of the Tacoma. Xpel calls it the bumper kit and grille kit. There's just too much paint that's likely to get chipped on the front of these trucks.

    No, not at all. Quarter turn of the stock bulbs out, insert the Opt7's and quarter turn to secure back in. Plug and play. Then just attach the little control driver box somewhere secure so you don't have it and the extra wiring hanging out everywhere. I used zip ties. I've had them in for about 3 months now. Very easy.

    Does the OPT7 come in H9? Thought I saw folks say they use H11s instead. Just tried to install some H9 Sylvania Zenon bulbs and they don't fit as the three prong base is different than the H9. Are people just jamming them in or what?

    No, H11's for the lows and fogs, at least. I'm not sure about the high beams...maybe those are H9's?

    ToyTec Ultimate lift, FX Pro wheels, 295/70/17 Ridge Grapplers, AFE drop in filter.
    Just so you all know, H11 LED bulbs work just fine in the high beam housing. Fit the same, same plug, good to go.

    Little tree air fresheners. Clazzio black leather seat covers.
    Are these just stickers? Or are the thicker like emblems? I already have the rrentop sticker enlays. Just curious on how these stack up.

    Readjusted my 6112s from the 3rd to the 4th clip. Front end settled too much on the 3rd. A little nose high atm, hoping it settles just right this time.20170102_121901.jpg

    3rd clip gave a hair over 1.5"
    4th is supposed to give a little over 2"
    The ride is more stiff but I like it.

    I have a progressive AAL with the overload removed. Gives an 1.5". 5160s as well. Thinking about getting a set of Dakars though. Got everything from @HeadStrong Off-Road.

    Added AVS Aeroskin II hood protector and removed chin air dam. OCD is kicking in and might have to readjust hood protector, didn't line it up right.

    Tinik we could get a front on shot or a 3/4 shot of your rig with those tire/wheel setup. I'm looking into the exact same thing, thanks

    Got tinted up. 15% back and 35% up front. I would of blacked it out, but this state sucks for tint laws. Also added a roof rack, TRD pipes, husky floor mats, Toyo glass security.
