What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

That's why I always have a hitch on.

 

Yup, the Maestro setup saves a ton of time. I’ve used it on several cars, you can actually buy the harness through crutchfield without the radio typically. So it’s all plug/play for the new radio.

 

wondering if they have something like that for a 3rd gen and is capable with a hard cover. Would be nice to keep stuff in the bed and locked up.

 

Silly it didn’t come with it. I had my rear pods mounted to the sides for a while and it looked weird so broke down and got the front bed rail

 

Bought the super cheap heated seat cushion from Amazon when it was $4 off. At $35.99 I was willing to take a chance. Just tried it out and it does work. I'll be taking it out on the road for an extended test in the morning.

Well, that doesn't look bad at all!

 

Installed Slee slider steps. Perfect fit and finish.

 

I bought a couple of those around Black Friday but mine look a little bit different. The ones I picked up have the control built right into the seat of the cover.

I emailed the manufacturer and supposedly they draw a max of 3A each. I ran the cords up through the bottom of the console to a cigarette lighter splitter to power them. So far so good...they’re working fine.

 

Yea, the control is built into the seat. It's on the right side. it has an on/off button and a mode button. Appears to have 3 settings.

 

That's... not good.

If it's in warranty, take it to the dealer. If they balk, say "Let's go take a look at the leaf packs on any other Tacoma you've got on the lot."

 

Oh, sorry, I see it now...I didn’t the first time I looked.

It can be a little bit awkward to adjust while driving but not too bad. i’ve been having to turn mine down to one pretty quickly because two and three are just too warm.

I took a couple of stick on felt cabinet bumpers that are the same size as the buttons and stuck them on there to make the buttons easier to find by touch.

 

Really should have took mine off and put it on my 17 when I traded it.

 

Thanks. Nice to know it does get warm enough. I was afraid that at this price it would only get lukewarm at best.

 

It is still under warranty, the truck only has 12,000 miles on it. I schedule appointment tomorrow at the dealership to have them look at it we'll see what happens.

 

Let us know what broke!

 

Got some Husky liners for an early Christmas present.

 

I mentioned this in another post but with the 2" inch and 285/75 r16s you will get rubbing on the mudflaps, just rip'em off

 

If you think the black bezel would be too much I've also seen people run a bezel that matches their paint. I thought it looked pretty cool like that. Surprisingly better than with a black bezel.

 

If you don't mind another question, did you get more caster with your UCAs? I have a 2.5" OME lift as well but with stock UCAs and I'm wondering if I could fit 285s. I kept around 2° caster which was as much as I could get with the stockers, so I'd be interested to know what yours are at, if you happen to know. Thanks
