    I bought the Energy Suspension bushings on Amazon for about $90 bucks and the shop charged me $332 and some change. It's a night and day difference if yours are shot or have turned into pancakes like mine did. Heck I think one of them was completely gone. No more rattling inside and no more clunk when I go over deeper stuff.

    I took (left) mine out when my hood was re-painted... it affects virtually nothing.... rain isn't really much of an issue. Maybe if your a snorkler and need that... otherwise, now its an air vent to release heat.....

    Well, that's it then, i'm gonna have to go back and revisit shoehorning the sub under there. Turns out that thing sounds way better than expected, and if I can make it fit, I'll keep it. Not sure how the Access Cab plumbing differs from the soccer mom version, but I'll take a look. My main reason for going with a proper enclosure is protecting the unit. Having it on the floor behind the seat leaves a little too vulnerable to things doing damage.

    All of the smaller terminals that I ordered from https://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Elec__Products/Connectors/connectors.html were wrong :(
    Entirely my fault. They were close but no. The connectors/terminals for the power mirrors and inverter are correct.

    I have to stop in to my local dealer and get some terminals. I could try easternbeaver again but shipping takes a long time and they might still be wrong.

    Taco Tunes rear speakers. Did the fronts a while back and loved the difference. Backs sound much better..... if your ears are down by your ankles and sitting in the back.
    Ah well, it does sound better and I know I can upgrade to a bigger system one day.
