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

I would be a no!

 

Bumper turned out okay

 

This is the same boat my husband’s in. Had a laminectomy for L3-L5 back in May for Cauda Equina syndrome, and he’s making slow but steady progress. It is a long recovery though, and not one I wish on anyone.

 

OH also I got my new 17” wheels and tires installed today!

Ready for some ho ho ho’in around

 

I have SG2 and have been extremely happy with it. I keep a paper and pen record of my combined MPG for every tank of fuel I put in the truck and I was averaging 16mpg before I got scan gauge and now I get 18-19mpg on average. I think it’s probably paid itself off by now. I need to re-do my calculations.

I’ve also programmed it to read my transmission temperature and all sorts of other stuff. Mine is mounted right above my mirror. I went with SG 2 because it’s smaller and more out of the way compared to UG.

SG2 you can also customize background color if you’re into that.

 

Nice install. I moved out of Texas two years ago today, and I still have my txtag up there.

Which wire did you tap for illumination?

 

Well there are 3 wires coming off each set of LED wire harnesses and its pretty much just matching the wires until I got power to the lights. 1 wire I didn't use on each of the push buttons, I believe this is the one for constant illumination.

 

Removed these:

To stop these from rubbing:

 

I've never even heard of this thing. Gonna make me Google this stuff?

 

I'm a big fan of mine. I track my coolant temp while off road, engine load to see if I need to downshift on the highway, battery voltage to see if it's healthy, and air temp intake for no good reason at all.
