Very cool build any pics of the oem ditch light switches?

8/18/2017 Camping trip to the Pinery road in the Chiricahua Mts with @DrewDown
And a few if there Toyota guys.
Added a tembo tusk skottle to the list of camping gear! We all put it to use camping food will never be the same!

 

Build looks great man!

Could you send a lint to these switches please. Looking for a reverse light switch in the same position.

 

@BamaTaco56 thanks!

Here is the link for the switches. they will work for the 2012-2015 tacoma in the center console. I moved my factory switches around so I could group my lights. The hardest part was getting the blanks out without messing up the dash.

The last few weeks have been busy parts have been sitting around but finally got a chance to put everything together.

Tucson-Alpine-Durango-Silverton-Ouray-laramie-Fort Collins-Denver-Buena Vista



Coming into Silverton Co

The trail out to clear lake






Because there was some bad weather coming in it was really windy and un campable at the lake so we drove back down to the tree line to spend the night.




Camp the next morning was wet frozen and cold so we packed up the gear and drove back into Silverton for some coffe and breakfast! The CVT tent kept us warm and dry and all the gear in the front runner boxes even though not water proof was all dry.





Such a cool little town can't wait to go back next year!
after breakfast we were taking a short drive to check out Ouray for a little bit then make the long push to laramie Wy







Coming into Ouray Co we did get a little sun shine here and there but mostly over cast. What a beautiful drive tho

Stoped I Ourays box canyon falls spend a little time here it as much as I would have liked because we needed to make it to Laramie this evening. But the plan is to come back next year.


Ended up hitting some bad weather out of Ouray in the pass into Wyoming lots rain, snow, fog, and lightning. Made for an interesting drive but we made it but got in late. Next day we went out to medicine bow peak with my friend Brent and his fiancé, their wedding is the reason for the trip.




Can't say I made it to the top between the bad weather and my lack of shape we turned around. We did get pretty high up tho.

Spent a few days in Wyoming caught a football game. And also made it out to Saratoga hot springs resort. Pretty great place I loved the fire place.






We left Brent and Jess after a few days to check out Fort Collins and Denver. We would meet up with them again in Buena vista Colorado for their wedding at Mt Princeton hot springs.








Cinnamon rolls to die for followed by the Odell Brewery tour the patio/weather this day was great. I'll spare you the touristy pics from Denver. Basically did the touristy thing there. Museums, aquarium,food,and beer for 3 days

Next stop Buena vista.


Went for a little walk along the river and had to explore the abandon building.





The wedding was a ton of fun the drive home was brutal but well worth it. Can't wait to do it next year and just explore Durango Silverton and Ouray.

 

Mogollon rim camping/fishing

 

Not to many changes to the truck in the last few weeks. Switched out the relentless ditch mount brackets for some SDHQ ones. They moved the lights a little more off the hood hinges less hood glare. Also ordered some more Baja designs lights it's an addiction. Bought the dome lights for under my tent going to be using them as cargo lights.

I also ordered tires today. 285 75 16 falken MT01 unfortunately they will be back ordered until December. The rugged fails were just not cutting it any more.

Oh and I also got my total chaos bed stiffeners on. I'll post some pitctures when my tires get mounted up.

 

Nice setup and a good lookin truck even if I am biased a little. You've had some cool adventures already

 

Thank you and yeah just a little biased lol. And for sure a few cool trips I plan on many more.

 

How do you like those baja design dome lights?

Thinking about mounting a few on the lid of my habitat, so that when it flips over, it has lights underneath for area lights.

 

I really like them! They do a great job lighting up under my tent/bed of my truck. They aren’t super bright like the rest of baja lights but they are more of a functional light at 200 lumens. If my tent was mounted higher I would also put some under the tent so my annex had light also. But right now I don’t ever use the annex.
