    I know that i don't post much on here anymore.
    Still got my 07

    Lately, i have been getting tired of trying to find a place to keep my sun deflector that isn't in the way of someone.
    I had some paracord and some aluminum wire around so i made a couple of hangars for the coat hangar hooks in the rear

    I also swapped out the a/c controls with the aluminum knobs. Cut out some vinyl for daytime indicators

    I got the kc lights that I found on craigslist tonight. He is apparently a jeep guy. Had a pretty nice rig too.
    Tomorrow they will go on after work!

    Doesn't even have a license plate yet!
    A little pissed...

    Thrilled to get my Whelen CenCom Sapphire installed in the last couple weeks. That high lasted till about Monday when I noticed the throw out bearing chirp, and it's gotten worse since then. I've heard about guys getting another 30k out of bad TOBs, but i have a feeling that I'm not going to be that guy...

    CenCom came out pretty nicely though!

    20180518_161924.jpg

    Bolted the brain and the fuse panel and terminal strips to the rear seat panel on the driver's side and it folds up nicely.

    20180524_210032.jpg

    Control head is backlit and attached to the front of the center console. Very beefy and the slide switch is very convenient!

    Question for ya'll;
    Purchased the truck already de-badged, so I really don't know which model I have. If I call the dealer with the vin#, can they tell me if I have a pre-runner, base model, etc?

    You can put your VIN into the Toyota VIN lookup tool online.

    It'll probably say BASE, but look at the options installed at the factory, that's where you'll find if you have a TRD Sport/Off-Road, SR5, etc...

    Thanx dome. Looked it up on Toyota.com. States is a standard model.
    The truck is a V6 D-cab 2WD auto trans. It is lifted like other 4X4 trucks. I thought that made it a pre-runner, guess not. If I'm missing something, let me know.
    I does not look like an after-market lift.
