    So, I've had this idea for a few months now and I finally executed it today. Whaty'all think?

    That was higher than it normally is. $20 of it is that damn cabin air filter you can just as well bang on a curb and reuse.

    Came with MGM topper. Added FJammer stereo. LED Bed lights on AOB Flux Capacitor Switch. Added AOB Spy Mode switch for TBD lighting, stay tuned.
    Getting ready to put some LED strips in the bed, thinking of wiring them to the dome light circuit, but I also have an AOB switch that i'd like to use with them, too.
    How is everyone here wiring theirs?

    The instructions that came with the switch say to always use a relay because the switch can't handle anything over 3A. I guess I need to go get a multimeter and see how many amps it's pulling, the documentation that came with my LED strip says it should use a 5A power supply, but it doesn't say if it actually uses 5A.

    Do I dare run it through the switch? Not sure what kind of relay I need, I've never really done anything like that before.

    I think stock sparks are right around 60k mark, bc they're copper. This is a good write up on how to do it yourself (https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/how-to-spark-plug-change-1-gr-fe.30479/)

    Not sure about the stripes, but I like the Toy Yoda.
    Mine is much smaller and hangs from the passenger side sun visor. Came from a Kinder Surprise.

    Everyone should have a toy Yoda for their Toyota. My two coworkers who each own a Camry have yet to jump on that band wagon.

    Swapped out the air filter for the first time since I’ve had the truck :anonymous: which is less 20k miles. Bought it with 67k and now have 84k. Embarrassing how bad it is. But driving from northeast Ohio to Virginia tomorrow so it’ll be nice to have a clean filter!

    Small stuff but not for long!
    Just got around to installing @ACEkraut license plate bracket and some bumper plugs. Rain drove me inside before I could get a picture. Up next- the search for a lower bumper light bar.

    Bought this shell today that I found a few days ago on craigslist. Been looking for one and it’s perfect. Quite the steal too! Only $550 bucks. So excited

    Had a weird dream that Bri from @ragofabrication was my neighbor back in my childhood home of Sunnyvale, California. We hopped in a car that looked like the @Kidwidataco avatar and that’s when I woke up to a splitting headache and an empty six-pack of Mazama Brewing Ale. I gotta learn to stay away from Oregon IPAs. Also, I think I’m gonna go ahead and buy the Rago molle panels I was looking at before I passed out.

    Everything I mentioned should be done at 60k (most of which should be done every 30k) per my hayes manual. Did you have it done at 60k?
