    You can change the lane change blinks yourself with the Carista app and OBD2 device 0-7 blinks. You can also turn off the drivers and or passengers side seat belt warning chimes and other stuff too. Or the dealer could do it if they know how. The dealer I went to told me that it couldn’t be done. I had to show them that it could.

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    Here you go. Hope you get yours replaced. Meso has 2 types, off road and Pro. I personally like the off road better but will take a Pro set too. Here are a couple quick pics plus and old one showing all the LED's. Awesome light IMO.

    In 3 years I never used that lane change 3 blink more than once. I am old school. I just use the blinker like all my other vehicles.

    This poor guys bank account is about to have a bad day.

    @Hnnng you can find any and all recommendations here. Just ask away and I am sure people will direct you appropriately.

    For your mountain bike project, you can get front fork mounts that fit into the bedrails -- thats how most people carry theirs unless they have a tonneau cover or something in the way. I actually have my front fork mount bolted into my tonneau cover so I can carry the bikes upright with the cover flipped back. Be aware that you will have to order a front bedrail, as toyota thoughtfully only included them on the sides for this generation.

    KBVoodoo also has some mounts that are well regarded.

    1st I upgraded to Mamba MX2 wheels and put on cheap tires. Then I went with the 4runner trail wheels with BFG tires. Wish I would have tried the new tires on the Mamba wheels because they were wider with more neg offset. I do like the 4runner wheels though.

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    Killer work. Looks stout.

    I got the Decked system and have set it up for an array of outings. I bought a few of their DBoxes/Crossboxes and have 1 for each application (shooting range, camping, fishing, tools/recovery).
    But to help give you some ideas regarding range setups. I was throwing my drag bag in there. But the bags were taking up too much space. Found a solution.
    I went to Bass Pro Shop and found a couple cheap rifle cases. They were more like single rifle cases, than a double as those are too wide for this use. I then took the case top/lid off of it by removing the pins in the hinges. This left me with a case that had Pluck foam, and a hard shell base that I could open the Drawer and just grab the gun of choice.
    Cases were cheap you can use the lid if it has foam for a second box.
    Worked well for me.

    You most certainly should have been the OP of this forum. I don’t think I have ever logged on and not seen you active in here ;)

    Kept this mod simple, it was needed. The stock knob was way too light for my liking. FJ knob with a 1" grommet holding the shifter boot trim in place.
