    Drove it to the dealer and picked up new window run weatherstrip and door belt trim.
    I'll be installing power mirrors (not wired yet) and when I have the mirrors out/door panels off, I replace the weatherstrip/trim and sound deaden the doors.
    Once the humidity dies down.

    Leave the spark plug in if you are toying with the idea of drilling it. Blow the hole out very good once done. Don't want shavings dropping into the cylinder.

    Finally got around to laying the matte black vinyl on the roof yesterday. It wasn't easy doing it alone but it turned out great!!!

    Update:
    Tried all my tricks to get it out. No dice.

    Tried to use an extractor. I figured it couldn’t make anything worse... right?

    Wrong! Extractor broke off in the hole i drilled in the broken bolt.

    I ate a burrito bowl earlier that hit me just as i was putting the last coil pack in before it broke. I’m blaming my cross threaded bolt on the fact that my intestines were actively attempting to leave my body so i was in a rush.:facepalm: :crapstorm:

    Over the weekend...
    Installed 5100s all around. Stock springs in front. ICON rear leaf pack.
    Found I had a snapped rear leaf and they where so clapped out that the overload springs and second springs actually remained inverted after we took them out...pics of after the install and the snapped leaf.

    Oil change done.
    Front pads and rotors done.
    Also mounted some supports/hangers to the inside roof of my cap.
    Headed to TN in the morning.

    Peep the build
    Haven’t posted in a while. I’ve upgraded my lights to BX Built retrofits and got me a fresh set of wheels and tires and gifted the hand me down set to my 3rd gen 4Runner. Stoked on how the Tacoma is looking!

    Looks good! I did mines earlier this year to my truck. What was the reason for wrapping your roof?
    I did mines more for protection from saltwater since I carry kayaks often.
