What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

What brand did you get?

 

I tried to get the automotive paint from NAPA but they no longer carry it where I live.

Took the VIN to Home Hardware and they mixed it for me and put it into an aerosol can.

Matches perfectly !

 

Nice! Was it a 2 part aerosol, or 1 part?

 

It was the 1 part. They have clear coat in separate aerosol cans.

 

Ill take some tonight and post them

 

Looks like duplicolor makes a small "Barcelona Red Metallic" spray can. Should be good enough for this cause!

 

Bought some pieces for a retrofit upgrade. from The Retrofit Source @TRSAndrew - Killer sale, hope I didn't miss anything.

During roadtrip, wife took picture.

 

Why and how did you do this? I seem to have a little steering column rattle on washboard roads and I wonder if this would fix.

 

Agreed! I've used other brands for various drinks, and none of them compare.
Lately we've been having Bourbon (or Pendleton), Bundaberg, and lime. I'm sure there's a name for it, but we just make it at home to keep warm.

Also, World Market had 50% off all Bundaberg products on Saturday, so it was great!

 

Kentucky Mule?

 

I installed the 2012+ Bluetooth stereo. Then I quickly learned that I can't pair my ****ing phone because I don't have the ****ing steering wheel controls.



Also, the screen cuts out with the headlights because I didn't ground the illumination wire.

 

haha, yes....
We were just in Kentucky, and hadn't even thought of that.

 

perfect !!!!!!!!!!!!! And good man for doing that for me.


thanks !!!

 

And now there's a good coat of wax on the truck. 62 degrees, but the sun was out. Wax dried quite nicely! Good shine.

 

Anyone recommend any new mods I can do the truck? Anything I’m missing?
Still debating whether to get 265/70 or 285/70 nitto grapplers but don’t want hit the uca

 

I have just gone through a blue tooth issue, due to Apples iOS 11 update. Apple ended up swapping out my phone and I had to redo all bluetooth connections.
Just thought I would throw that out in case you have just updated to the iOS 11

 

Well, I haven't installed yet, but these arrived today by a very attractive female UPS driver.



I'm doing an audio upgrade thanks to this post.

Premium Audio Upgrade for less than $250

 

What are you guys using to do this, I want it so bad!

 

I have the 265/75r16 Nitto Trail grapplers on my truck now, but I just pulled the trigger on the 17” Pro comp wheels thru 4 Wheel Parts for my upgrade. Been happy with the 265’s until now, and with less than an inch difference to the 285/70’s I’ll probably be going that route.
