    There was a sale going on a few days ago. Paid $100 for the Morimoto D2S and $30 for the shrouds. Couldn't resist as I had an extra pair of oem headlights sitting in the garage!

    At the time mine broke I had a low profile tonneau cover as well luckily I was able to slide a screwdriver between the cover and the tailgate to get it unlatched and access into the bed. I want a tailgate stiffener so bad but I will not run both at the same time without a failsafe to open the tailgate if it breaks again. I do like the pop n lock though quite a bit its just not made to last.

    Hey man I found them on Amazon for even cheaper ($5) than what i purchased them for! Shouldnt be any reason not to be it especially if they are 30% cheaper than msrp! Check it out:

    Couldn't resist it.....bought one for one of my daughters back in 07....white auto 05.....this one was sittin by the road for sale going home from work one day and then in my driveway the next day. 88k, dry motor, working AC, 5 spd....worth 3k I'd say. I've gone thru it pretty far in the last month adding color changing oem Pioneer, 6 new speakers, new windshield, towhook, lower grills, bumper fogs, new intake hose, ground kit, center console, ventguards, LED headlights, wipers, all filters, plugs, eyebrow tint on new windshield, missing rear belt clips, cargo net, shifter bushing and aFe dry flow S drop-in on the way. New rear shocks and Progress rr sway will about finish what I want to do.....for a minute or 2. Things drives, rides like a dream, gets 33 mpg and only takes about 12 gallons to fill up. Lovin it for work car. Gas will last a month and the truck can catch a break now and then.

    Got the grill surround paint matched and got the clearcoat fixed after wet sanding and doing some polishing. Came out great, i have zero complaints and i did it all by hand with rattle cans off Amazon and from advance auto parts. Paint matched PERFECTLY, Super happy how it came out

    I had a grey '06...bought new. I through on some Tien S-Tech springs, AR1 16s with 205/50 rubber and rear hub spacers, TRD strut bar, TRD CAI, the factory accessory TYC tails and some JDM OEM fog lights. I loved it. I should've never sold it.

    The little 1.5 1NZ engine only makes 100 hp but they are durable. They saw duty in the Echo, Yaris, xA, xB and 1st 2 Prius gens.

    The manual tranny versions have the JDM gearing...meaning they're meant for the tight streets of Tokyo....not necessarily American freeways. They turn an rpm or 2 at 70 mph. :D

    Cool...vehicle. Known as the Toyota bB (Black Box) in Japan. :thumbsup:

    Today, I installed Tacomabeast (Spyder) projector headlights on the truck, also re-plastidipped the grill surround becasue it was peeling. I am also going to replace the high and low beam halogen bulbs with H1 LED bulbs as soon as possible! I would strongly recommend these headlights.
