    Not too bad. The brakelines on the driver side were the toughest part to maneuver. The drilling isn't as bad as it was made out to be. I picked up some titanium bits and started with a small pilot hole then bored it out with 3/16
    " bit then moved up to the 3/8". 5 minutes max per hole.

    Yeeeeeup. 14 bays total. We cover a pretty large area though so I suppose it makes sense.

    I've got a set sitting on my desk waiting for install. I'm told they are very easy to install.

    Today was a great day off work...long overdue after some long hours this past weekend.


    Cool stuff has been showing up in the mail ever since I bought my Tacoma.


    Did a couple easy upgrades today in between tending the smoker.......

    Now....to find a dark finished metal tailgate cover so I can use this tailgate even more for my grilling. As you can see, that OEM bed mat was thirsty work, lol.

    Next, I transitioned into more of this thirsty work.....

    Less than 5 minutes to do this one. My current cellphone is an iPhone 7+ in a LifeProof case. It's way large 'n heavy by cellphone standards and it fits inside the Perfect Squeeze mount just fine. Not sure how much larger this thing would go....but it's perfect for my current iPhone (and I don't plan on changing for a few years).


    I'm gonna run it in the right-hand driver's vent for a few weeks and see how it does. I may......may...move it it over to the left-hand passenger's vent. We'll see. There seems to be plenty clearance as it sits now.

    Word of caution. That steel tailgate guard is heavy enough that your dampening will no longer work on the tailgate. When you open it the tailgate drops down fast and hard like a 1975 F150.
