What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I'm not sure what you used to support the front of the platform but this is what I installed recently, collapsible shelf brackets with 3/4"x2" wood attached to the outside. Note, I have an Access Cab so I have installed the dog platform over top of the jump seats.

Bought with Pro Grille
Removed chrome side steps and plastic front air splitter thing
Added red shackle under front bumper
Added black fill letters on tailgate and blacking out side "Tacoma" and back "V6"

 

Towed my little project car to get an alignment.

 

Nice S14!

 

Second this...

 

Thanks. Hoping to make some power shortly.

 

Dope 240!! Sold my S14 Zenki just after getting the Taco. Crazy what they're going for now-a-day. Bought mine in 2013 for $4k, sold it in July for $6500.

 

The OEM storage box is supporting it. Which reminds me...I need to add a 2x4 down the middle to keep the middle of the plywood from sinking down.

 

Built me a HDPE tailgate deck.

 

@MESO start button! Looks great, I'm not quite as chrome averse as some, so I kept the OEM ring. I kind of wish the button was a semi gloss rather than matte finish so it would match the 2wd/4wd button next to it. But so happy that it lights up like stock!

 

Yeah, the price is ridiculous. I paid $5k for mine in 2015. It was almost completely unmolested. Only had a drop & exhaust. Everything else was completely OEM.

 

So got my trd pro stealth shift knob thanks to @ToyodaTruck for hookin me up and did some repair on the broken wires. Used spare parts from an old car alarm i had lying around and made the wires long with a connector, coincidentally the wire colors were the same as the shift knob so made easier to not cross the wires and soldered the wires and Heat shrink wrapped them together, tested the buttons and they both work. Still gotta get some acrylic paint to repaint the buttons but overall not too bad of a fix

 

The heated mirror function still work?

 

I was thinking of doing the same thing, what thickness and where did you find the board? And is the surface slick when it’s wet?

 

...Yeah, but looks like your's is a KOUKI. Which, even if it's an auto, is like GOLD. LOL.

 

I had the same issue with support for my 70 lb lab but I used a 1/2" x 1/2" x 4' long steel shelving wall bracket.

 

did you buy that? have to cyt it to size? I'm brand spanking new to power tools, hardware stores, and DIY, so I'm completely green, lol.

 

Where did you get the HPDE from?

 

Thanks for sharing this! Answered a lot of questions I had

 

I have used the search function until my eyes bleed but I cannot figure this out for the life of me. Head is spinning!

Trying to run grille lights to a cab switch (CH 4x4 with the 4 wires Red/Red/Green/Black). Want them switch operated instead of on all the time or whenever my lights are on.

Relay? Add-A-Fuse? Both? Any diagram/explanation will be greatly appreciated! I am admittedly an electric noob. I popped the lights into the grille, connected the wires, grounded one and have tried everything with the power wire and switch wires! Thanks TW!
