What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Picked up a barely used (9k miles) TRD Performance exhaust and got it hooked up today. Love it!

 

Not a big deal. If I paid attention more I'd be someone else!
It's all good!

 

I dont have a button to replace is what’s stopping me. Haha

 

Yeah I didn't pay attention to your info on the left... My bad.

 

@MESO full Chrome delete. Vent Rings, All knob rings, and cupholder ring, and most importantly fhe red TRD start/stop button. Couldnt be happier

Probably get rid of that bottom red stick on accent now

 

All good man. I didn’t see your follow up messages until after I posted lol

 

Last weekend, I got around to installing my WARN Zeon 10S Platinum via @SDHQ OFFROAD hidden winch mount. Overall it went really well and I am stoked on how it came out. A few pics from the install.

Solenoid post removal from main housing being prepped for SDHQ solenoid relocation kit:



Close up of the details from SDHQ. I have several items from them and everything is super well done and thought out. An example is the additional heat shrink here where the lines will rub on the winch body.



Front shot of the winch mounted up with solenoid relocation in place. The winch is a super high quality piece of kit and it can be seen inside and out. All the connections, fittings, hardware, instructions and even how everything was packaged was done very well. I suppose this is to be expected from WARN, however I also felt it was worth mentioning.



One big reason I went with the WARN Zeon 10S Platinum was the wireless winch controller and clutch. I have the winch power wired through a WARN Power Interrupt kit via my Switch Pro, meaning the winch has no power until I hit the Switch Pro Winch switch, which activates a solenoid, giving power to the winch. As such I never need to open the hood to turn power on, operate the clutch or hook up the winch controller.



Here are a few close up shots of the SDHQ recovery points and beautiful welds they do.





How the bracket sits in relation to the bumper with lower valence not yet installed. It is really nice that the winch drum/ line is pretty visible through the lower grill opening of the Tacoma. This really helps with ensuring the drum is properly spooled.



Final product:

 

Maybe if you apply water and fertilizer and some mud, they will grow bigger!

 

Very nice Bud!

 

The push button start absolutely sucks, I now have two cars with it. I do not find it convenient at all.

They sell it to you as an upgrade, but in reality is a real cost savings to the MFG.
Same with TFT gauges, they charge more for them but they are way cheaper to make. In five years every car will have keyless pushbutton start in TFT gauges, not because they are better, because they are cheaper.

 

Red accents look great with MESO red!

 

Absolutely beautiful, truck looks so damn clean I love what you've done to maintain the stock look. I'm officially sold on the hidden winch mount. Got any pics of the light bar on?

 

I've tried everything you suggested except for fertilizer lol

 

Installed @MESO red TRD button .

 

Thank you very much. Trying to walk the line of as clean, lightweight and capable as possible. No good pictures on hand, but you can see the lightbar turned on in this video.

Lights day. LED interior lights and DD SS3 sport fog lights will need to adjust the fogs lower.

 

Finished this little project today. A lot of cutting and grinding but the end result looks great and i’m sure will work amazing on the trip at the end of the month. Archive shackle flip kit, shock relocation kit and 12” king 2.5’s.

 

Customized and 3D printed some raptor light bezels for my stock TRD OR grille. Lights are coming this week and I can't wait! (Light in picture is borrowed from my brother-in-law for creating the bezel).

 

Can't wait for the kit so we can start buying them. Put me down for a set on pre-order when your there. White if possible?

 

I'll take Silva
