    Welcome to the forum! Now follow these instructions VERY carefully!!! Go into your backyard, dig a hole appx 2 feet deep, place your wallet into the hole, cover with dirt, forget where you buried it! Oh yea, stop reading this forum! I've owned my Taco just over a year and my "mod" count is just over 50! Hope the wife doesn't find out how much I've spent.

    Yes, I really do, and has held up very well for ~18 months. It is very easy to put it on and take off, which I do fairly often. My father has one on his Tundra for about 6 years and has help up great, and my cousin had one on his 2nd gen as well. For the price it cannot be beat in my opinion and NO I do not work for TonnoPro....

    My wife bought it here https://www.autoanything.com/tonnea...MIwqe4l6iw2wIVkR2BCh2WYQNdEAYYBCABEgJlz_D_BwE

    Number 1 mod is deleting your account and never coming to Tacomaworld or you'll spend all your money and convince yourself your truck is broken

    Replace the factory bump stops. I think they're probably the lowest quality parts on the truck.

    tires.
    265 75 16 will fit with no mods and you can get a better tire than what comes with the trucks.

    Bed mat if you use the bed. HIDs if you are accustomed to better light output. Tires if the stockers won't cut it where you roll around but if possible I'd do suspension, wheels and tires all at the same time.

    What you really need is a customized billet shift knob.

    • OEM Bed mat..a necessity IMHO - around $100. that bed is one slippery surface
    • Kicker speaker upgrade - can get all 4 doors plus good tweeters to be powered by the factory head unit and install yourself for <$250 and is a remarkable improvement over stock. (look for Premium Audio Upgrade thread)
    • Front window tint.. mine is at 25% and looks pretty flush w/ the rears - $100-150
    • Vehicle OCD console organizers and glove box organizers - very cheap mod/upgrade that makes those spaces SO much more usable and organized. Can find on Amazon - cheap!
    • AVS Vent visors if you like to have fresh air when it's raining - $50ish
    • Tonneau or cap if you want lockable dry storage... sky is the limit
    • Steps or sliders... if you aren't rock crawling the Tyger Star Armor steps off Amazon are a great deal at like $280
    • Tailgate letters to make the Tacoma POP (and look less F150ish) - $50
    • Chinese faux pro grill - $130
    • Seat covers (neoprene is my fave) - $350
    • Bug deflector - ugly as hell I think but it does keep MOST bugs of the windshield. - $100

    We've done many of the same mods lol. I forgot to add the ocd organizer to mine. Without a sunglasses holder in the OR, the center console tray is a must have.
