What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Swapped my 5500K Morimoto fogs to the new amber model.

New set of General Grabber ATX - 275/70/17. Replacing a set of K02s that had a odd wear pattern due to poor upkeep from the previous owner (not rebalanced/aligned frequently enough) - felt like driving on permanent rumble strips. The Grabbers are smooth & silky in comparison and the road silence is deafening.

 

I couldn't help but notice, that you have cloth seats in your truck, but it looks like you have factory seat heater switches as well. I'd like to do factory switches to my recently installed, aftermarket heaters, if its possible. Any chance you could enlighten us! I'd greatly appreciate it - Bill in MA

 

Old lady ran into me last night on my way home from work. Busted the driver's side tail light, good scratch in the driver's rear quarter panel, and the rear bumper cap.

 

Well on the up side it could have been a whole lot worse. On the down side......it still sucks pond water!
Minor damage, major disappointment.
Hope all goes well for ya!

 

First call was to the insurance company this morning. Not a major repair, but still a pain in the ass

 

Guess these other novelty items are off limits then as well?


Love laws written in such a way where intent is irrelevant.

 

good price!

 

Depends where you are and how many snowflakes are around. Perfectly legal here.

 

Hit Fiddy-K on the OD

 

Whoa can I get the details on these? Never seen them before

 

Time for TRD PRO tail lights mod!!

 

Here's a mod that I borrowed from another TW member. I wish I knew who it was so I could tag them and give them due credit for it.
This gel pad fits almost as though it was designed specifically to fit the door panel of a Tacoma. Like that member I have a habit of resting my knee against the door while driving. Very comfortable, inexpensive and looks and feels like it belongs there. I liked it so much that I put one on the passenger side as well.
To that member....., Kudos for thinking outside the box! I love it!
Got them on Amazon. $5.99 each and free shipping with Amazon Prime. Not too many mods out there that you can do for under 12 bucks. Affixed it with (3) 1/4" strips of 3M tape.

Apologize for the lousy picture. A gloomy rainy day here in NE.

 

Holy shit that's genius. Don't let Toyota know or they'll add it to the 2021 and up the base price $300.

 

Amazon Prime froze up on my phone. Overuse. What is the 3M Pn? Or link?

 

Cheaper you say? What was your price.? And size

 

@Easthill Bob, should this be post under cheap mods?? LOL.

I will be doing this as well! Thx!

 

Here:

3M Gel Wrist Rest for Mouse, Soothing Gel Comfort with Durable, Easy to Clean Leatherette Cover, Antimicrobial Product Protection, 6.9", Black (WR305LE) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0016OV5MQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_GQNEDbVNYMRHJ

 

I was skeptical at first, but for $5.99 and a several (3) strips of 3M emblem tape I figured why not give it a shot. The real plus it that once installed it actually looks like OEM.
One thing that I forgot to mention. The pad has a slight recess at its base. When you put the tape on and put the pad on the door panel it fits perfectly flush. Tape is completely invisible.

 

The 3M Emblem tape I already had from a different mod. I purchased the 3M tape at O'Rilley auto parts. Stock #38582. Don't remember the price but I always try to keep some around, handy stuff to have on hand.
