    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I know what you mean about the tint. My Dads Escalade has a limo tint and I cannot see for shit at night. Never been pulled over for it but I can see how it looks suspicious. Those seats cleaned up really nicely. Mine were so shot there was no saving them, whoever owned the truck before me must've had a sharp ass cause the padding was gone right in the middle.

    How would a person test or look to see if they have a bad cat?

    I guess I need to clean my air filter too. I hate Kn's.....

    I probably wouldn't let a bad cat in my house. But that's just me.

    IMAG0811.jpg IMAG0813.jpg IMAG0812.jpg Did this today....Was finally able to get some true buckets and get rid of that 60/40 (Yes, I know they're the wrong color!Seat covers will solve this.) Feels so much better on the back already. Also found a grey center console at the junk yard, that will be installed after carpet cleaning. New LED dome light bulb.

    If you have a temp gun you can take the temp going into the cat and coming out. If it's the same temp going in as it's coming out then your cat is bad. But if the temp changes your cat is good. This is a good way to find out if it's the 1st or 2nd cat going bad.

    I haven't got them yet. I bought them from a LT guy, Anthony. I'll look into the 1157. It's somewhere to start.
