    QUESTION
    A few weeks ago someone posted about an organizer for under the rear seats in crew cab models. I asked about an organizer for access cab bins, at that time they said about another week. Does anyone know who posted that info???

    Huge thanks to the guy who posted this mod for adding intermittent wipers! Did it this weekend to my kid's Tacoma and it works perfectly.

    Sun glare on my stereo was pretty bad with my new kenwood head unit. Seen people asking about solutions and seen 1 member who made a visor out of plastic. Picked up 22 ga. sheet aluminum 6" x 18" from hardware store and made a visor . Works very well and just slips in between head unit and mount . Easy on and off . Just make to size you want .

    Made slightly longer one

    Is all that inclosed where you ran the wire? I'm gonna be putting in some leds in the bed and I was planning on running my wire where you did. How secure did you do the wire? Is there any openings where a lot of water can get in?

    Been searching around TW for a headlight light replacement for the Tacoma beast headlights (3rd gen) I want LED’s but I can’t seem to find any good ones that fit in the cover. I believe it takes H7 for Both, I’ve seen super nova recommended but haven’t seen anyone actually using them. Any help is greatly appreciated!
