    On '01-'04 Tacomas it actually just piggybacks off the existing pos and neg wires of the speaker. I'll post the diagram in a minute - I don't know if it's the same on 4Runners. I don't think it would be as simple as splicing your old speaker harness though.

    I bought some component speakers when I did mine that way I didn't have to mess with wiring, I do remember that the sail panels required modification to fit correctly one of the mounting pegs doesn't line up. These are the speakers I used

    The dude in the brown truck stopped by today. Brought me another part for my 4x4 swap.

    Add this one to the list of times my wife has been disappointed in me, when the brown truck arrives announced. :notsure:

    Take it from an old-timer, it is much easier to work on these vehicles, compared to the old days. You can find a video for most any repair job, plus you have these forums to ask questions, and read about how others have done things.

    So here’s my problem,
    My kings are in need of a rebuild, desperately. I don’t dare attempt to do it myself, just don’t dare for some reason. Thinking about seeing if a local shop can rebuild them or know someone’s that can.

    So just Incase I need to ship them somewhere should I buy some cheaper shocks like Billy’s or just buy some blocks for the stock shocks I still have?

    This sent up would be very temporary.

    That could just be your antenna. But glad it works.

    And yeah you'll have to ship them anywhere unless you do them yourself. A bike shop might do them but idk if they would do a trucks. Have to set the IFP right.
