    That looks nice! I was thinking about a pro grill but after seeing this I might have changed my mind!

    Threw on the kings, UCAs, & got the rear together. Then swapped the wheels/tires.

    Finally took the time to upgrade the tweeters (subaru tweeters) and front door speakers (Pioneer). Also installed the noico sound deadener and insulation while I had the panels off. Back doors next and the roof...

    I followed Jesse Rizo's video for info on installing. Super helpful.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vxpT62AP0M

    I did find it easier to break the carboard templates into smaller 1/3 sections to simplify install instead of leaving each piece full length.

    Overall, I'm happy with how it turned out. Looking forward to doing the rest of the truck.

    Yesterday I did my first DIY oil change on the Tacoma since the free ones from Toyota ran out.

    Who the hell designed this truck and have they never done basic maintenance before? Cartridge filters suck and they always have, but did they need to put the stupid thing on top of a skid plate? And then put the two forward bolts to the skid plate behind a trim piece where a wrench will barely fit? And what jerk cross threaded 3 of the 4 bolts that hold the thing in place? Probably the guy that did my previous, 'free' oil changes, huh?

    I've never in my life had an oil change take more than 30 minutes, including cleanup, and this stupid truck took 2 hours out of my life that I'll never get back.

    Does the TRD Pro skid plate with the access panel make it any easier? Or does the oil just get all over the top of the skid plate when you remove the filter? I bet I can guess the answer to that...

    I also mounted this little 120V heater so that when the Dog is traveling with me in really cold temps I can give her a little more heat with the touch of a button

    That's killer! Maybe black out the center of the bumper.

    I may steal this idea but in a little different direction...

    The kit is one from Autozone. I plan on changing it to something different. I got something cheap to test the location and output. It's straight forward, the hard part was figuring out the +&- and wire color in the A pillar.

    I have a coworker with one of those super lifted f250s with big white rims and white front end lol I love the look of the truck especially at night because he has lights on the tires.

    Finished making my harness for my overhead switches.
    There are 4 switches up there -
    - Driving lights (yellow on light bar)
    - Spot lights (white on light bar)
    - Rear lights (bumper mounted)
    - ? (switch is a ? and says "push to turn something on") I dont know what this switch will be for yet, but it will probably have a wire run to the bed, then capped off... it will be for Halloween or Christmas decorations in the bed or just random things I need to run with 12v in the back.
