    I spliced the seat belt connectors from the bucket seat harness to the bench seat harness and then shaved the seat belt buckles down. No lights on and everything works as it should from what I can see/tell (from dash lights and hooking up a snap-on diagnostic computer to it)

    Awesome! thanks, what was getting the buckets mounted like? I'm assuming you pulled them from another Tacoma.

    Yea I bought them from a junk yard along with my center console. I think it was $600 for a full center console and both bucket seats which seems to be a pretty decent price. I only have 3 bolts per seat I think? I also only cut "X"s in the carpets to expose the holes for the hidden bolt holes

    Awesome! It looks so different than when I go and see it. I recognize most of the areas where you were but it totally changes with a blanket of snow over everything
