    @m603holden you asking about any extras referring to the truck i didn’t get, or the truck i actually wanted? And Yea, Nashua does suck. I got a homie that had an issue with them too, regarding them not coming through on a deal with a tundra, and they were just about to sell his trade in. And Yes, they do suck.

    This weekend, I decided to install an auxiliary light in muh skewp. Everything is wired and ready to go, but somehow I fiddlyfucked a connector, and a new one is on the way. Great customer service from Spartan X Customs. Pictures later. Also ordered (yet another) switch panel.

    @CoastieRon if that height is above 42” may the soldiers of the Crown leave you be. Can’t wait to see how it looks. Also, do you know of any powdercoaters in the area? I need some quotes for an exhaust. Thanks bud.

    The place I used once upon a time for a skid plate on a 2000 Tundra was Rapid Finishing on Simon Street in Nashua ((603) 889-4234). They used to do a ton of Harley Davidson black out work, so I caught them on a day they were doing a big run. This was in 2002, so I'm not sure how willing they will be now adays, but it never hurts to call and ask.

    Temporary set up. I don't like the sub knob so I ordered something else for it.

    light swtich.jpg

    Why can't I find a good friggen dial that fits nicely and looks proportional to the redarc dial.....

    panel.jpg

    This dial is 25mm x 15mm
    the one before was 12.5mm x 16mm

    Audio 15

    So the Entune Premium non-JBL will handle both a USB with over 4k songs as well as an iPod with over 15k songs on it at the same time.

    Bed cover is fixed! Yay!

    So the birdawg mirror riser will fit 3gen trucks, however, it will not fit the 2018 due to the radar on the windshield unless it is trimmed (the piece that is, not the windshield). I'll have to re-evaluate.

    On a side note, I retuned the gain on the subwoofer output on the amp last night. I wasn't getting the best output from the sub, at all. What a difference now. Ridiculous punch.
