    Forgot to ask what size tank are you running for gas and how long has it lasted you through all these projects?

    It’s easy. Just depends on ur painting skill level. I painted my shell also to match. It was a lot easier the then shell. Just need to take ur time and make sure the prep work is done correct. If u rush that the paint job will pay the price.

    Finally installed a driveline carrier bearing drop kit. Should have done this when I first lifted my taco.

    Pretty sure you can disable the belt chime. It was easy to do on my 2010.

    Yep.
    Easy, de-solder it from the board. It's black and round, 2 solder points on the face. Seat belt beep gone!

    Forgot to circle it before sending, but it's the two pins about 1.5" to the right of the speedo IIRC.

    The Seat Belt beep can be done away with by using Toyota's software. There's all kinds mods you can make to your vehicle if you know what you're doing with a laptop and the software.

    Looks really good man. Didnt look bad with the chrome either though. Silver is the only color chrome looks good on in my opinion.

    What is this Toyota software? And are we (we, the general public) able to even get it? And how much is it? (I can't imagine they just give it away)

    Yep.
    How's that work with the key in the ignition and the door open? Or ignition off, lights on?

    I personally don't want a beep, ever.

    *apparently my sarcasm was missed :rolleyes:. No buzzer = no beep
