    Hello errrbody. I searched diligently but didn't really find anything on the forums so I figured I'd just ask. I have the 2016 TRDOR and needless to say, the interior electrical power options are pretty lacking, especially in the rear seats. So, I was thinking of getting an inverter and running it to a location accessible in the backseat. Anyone have any recommendations? I also saw a YouTube vid where a guy had a power distributor/router on top of his battery that he could wire several devices to and then power them with a button panel. For the life of me I can't find that video now, does anyone know what I'm talking about with that? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    If you have the factory inverter (power plug in the bed) then you can buy a adapter that puts a power plug inside the truck also.

    Search for "tacoma inverter mod" or something similar and you should get some hits.

    There are a few threads, they get locked right away. Long story short, acting like vendor without being vendor I believe.

    Dont talk too much about it or this thread will probably get locked too.
