    I don’t normally like colored wheels, it works really well with your truck!

    I think the side decal pulls the look together!! :thumbsup:

    It’s a variation of a saying I used to give my guys when prepping explosives.

    Pretty demo is happy demo. Happy demo works.

    It’s never fun to go down range to check out a misfire when it looks like a rats nest.

    These were just for me but depending what your looking for I might be able to help you out.

    Although talking you through how incredibly easy these two harnesses were would make the most sense.

    Been awhile since I’ve added something new to the Wombat because of my latest project my ‘87 4Runner, but finally joined the club with MesoCustoms Gasshole. No more awkward placement of the cap. Haha

    Appreciate it boss, kinda one of those things you know you wanna have in the shop. Don’t need it just yet, but when you do, you’ll know it somewhere there. But definitely down to learn

    Agreed! PM sometime if you like. It’s really more about keeping things organized. I feel like most guys have wiring issues because they get something mixed up.

    Want to do this soon. Seems like a big difference. Did you put the damper inside the void? Or just panel, or both? Any pics of install? Which noico did you use? Thanks @5nahalf

    Nice project! Planning on finding an old 4Runner myself someday; maybe in the next year or so. :thumbsup:

    I didnt get any pictures, I realized I needed to take some after I was putting the door panel back on :(

    I put a layer on the outer skin, then I put some around the speaker mounts and most of the metal the door panel attaches to. Then I cut 2 inch wide strips and placed them on the door cards any place that there were 2 panels plastic welded together. I was getting rattles in the door cards before, now I have no sound but my speakers. I have not driven the truck yet, so I havent listened for a difference. I did sit in the truck, turned off the sub and played my speakers, sounds about the same, maybe a little more bass, but the biggest thing I noticed was there were no rattles or vibrations.

    I used the 80 mil silver stuff. One 18 sq foot box did both front doors and still have enough to do the rear doors.

    No problem, I will try to get some pictures when I do the rear. Though the rear I plan to just do the outer skin, around the speaker and strips on the door card. There is not as much bass coming from the rear speakers to need going all out, just enough to keep the road noise from getting into the cabin.

    Thank you! Took me awhile to find this one, but well worth it. Slowly but surely it will be perfected. Haha

    Hahaha. Interior needs some minor work and the body has its minor fixes, just really doing replacements and refreshes. About start putting together an album on here. I actually like Tacomaworld’s format better most of the 4Runner forums. Haha
