What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Received this from Mountain Hatch for my Christmas present, have to wait to install it though. Nice people to work with too, great service.

 

That's a great shot. That's calendar worthy.

 

Bought a new 2019 Tacoma a few months ago. Here are some of the purchases/mods I’ve made based on research and helpful info I’ve found in this forum. I know there are a lot of other great options/competing products out there but I just hoping to give a consolidated list of options for new Tacoma owners to consider.

1. Matt Gecko Bed Lights (easy install 1 hour but really took my time with the basic electrical work and routing of power line to battery) – very happy with these LED’s - https://mattgeckoleds.com

Need Pictures!

 

Black Friday delivery!!! Tomorrow the install! Yewwww!

 

How far out does the jack base sit? Looks not so good and doesn't look safe like that.

 

that certainly is custom. Gotta love good ole fashion figure that shit out.

 

I’ll drink to that! Gonna have a shot right now with an 805 chaser!

 

Looking good!

 

You able to get the B pillar off yet?

 

One of the first things I did. That pinch weld just stands out to me. Looks great!

 

Remove both door sill trim parts (just pull up)
unbolt bottom seat belt bolt
remove lower trim
then remove upper trim

It makes it a little easier if you pull the weather stripping away too, then you have some space to get your fingers in there.

install in reverse order

 

Thanks, I've done mine multiple times. Was just trying to see if they still need help since I didnt see they got a reply.

 

Welcome to TW Bud!

 

Purchased an ARB Dual Compressor (MSRP $556) for $300 brand new, cables still sealed in packages. Debating on mounting location, leaning towards mounting in bedside.

 

Welcome to TW M8!

 

No further than the width of the bumper. Doesn’t block any light output from the headlights or fogs.

 

OK, must have. I’m a newb to these parts- where did you get the fire extinguisher mount and the medical box? My wife and I want exactly that!

 

Shoot me a PM and I can fill you in on as many detail as possible in the morning. The mount is incredibly strong, doesn’t impede on headrest safety or airbag deployment, and has survived a bad crash unscathed. The trauma kit is all pieced together based on my usage/needs, which I can also list out.

 

will do man! My wife and I are both RNs, just was curious how you did it. Talk atcha soon
