    OME 886s, ARB front bumper, WARN M8000S, sweet camo seat covers. Allpro dual swingout rear bumper, SOS Sliders, ARB RTT on AP Pack rack.
    I ordered my Decked bed drawer system today. I can’t wait to get my backseat back. Well my dog can’t wait.

    I also got an ARB snatch strap for Christmas, put it in the back seat for now.

    Put new clips on my drivers side rear fender after almost a year of having them broken. There was only 1 complete clip left holding the fender on all others were broken lol
    Glad its not flapping in the wind anymore. Got the clips from fastenal and all work perfectly got about 10 for 12$ which is better than the dealership. Also took the time to hit everything in the fender well there with the pressure washer, there were spider webs and cocoons under the fender flare and inner black plastic lol

    Thanks that is pretty nifty right there. I wanted to mount it somewhere on the dash but from what y'all have shown me the top of the windshield seems to be the best option

    Fiancé got me a second jerry can and smittybilt mount! So I drilled up some flat iron and painted it black and mounted to Tacoma bed rails. Now I can go farther!

    Also got a pair of bed D rings but have to figure out how to get the bed bolts out first. They aren’t budging.

    I used the suction cup mount and put it in the lower left corner of the windshield. Easy to reach to silence alarms and doesn't impair my view at all (only blocks my view of that corner od the hood).

    The ultragauge is pretty light so you may have better success. I find a little spit on the suction cup before sticking it on the window does wonders for keeping it in place.

    Life hack:

    Or maybe I'm just a hack.
    5 minute job turned out to work great and has awesome positioning while driving. Out of the way and doesn't block anything else but a small portion of that vent.

    You can even see where I routed the wiring.

    The only downside is the slight reflection of light on the dirver's window while driving at night that is exaggerated because of my dark tint. Other than that, I'd recommend it.

    My dad was in the Navy for 25 years and I am very proud of this fact. I bought these two magnets at Nautilus (the Navy museum in Norfolk)!

    Thanks that certainly looks like it'll work. A little 2 sided 3m tape and waala

    Shortbed @KB Voodoo Tacoma bed rack on a long bed, with just enough clearance for the rear section of the tri-fold tonneau. Had a couple issues during the install, but it's on, and seems like it'll work for the new RTT.

    I always thought it was a waste to throw them out. I usually rotate the latest used one to my glove box or center console because they still work great for smaller areas. I just want to clarify that I'm not a hoarder.:anonymous: But glad I had a spare one.

    I borrowed a buddies UltraGauge and just needed a quick mount for a trip. He ended up liking the "mount" so much, he kept it and still runs it to this day almost a year later.

    Never had one. I am assuming the wiring runs to the plug in below the dash above the gas pedal?
