Dipped the wheels, turned out pretty good. Used Rustoleum Gloss Black.

 

Did you use the Rustoleum Peel Coat paint?

 

Yes. Normally I would use plasti dip but the store was sold out. Used this and my initial impression is very positive.

 

Looks good! Been thinking about doing my wheels.

 

When I ordered interior door handle bowl lighting from KTJO, I wasn't sure if I wanted WHITE or ICE BLUE. I bought WHITE bowl lights and I bought a roll of ICE BLUE DIYAH LIght Tint Film (light blue tint color) film from Amazon, 6 bucks.

The bowl lights are a cool product & are easy to install. Just took my time feed the black/red wires downward to the switch area. But, I wasn't a fan of the white color. So I cut rectangles of the tint film and place them over the LED's. There is a protective layer over the top of the film & another protective layer on the sticky side of the film-pain to catch and peel off with a fingernail. Then, I just pushed the sticky side of the tint film against the LED rectangle of the bowl light.

I like the blue effect, matching the blue glow of the dash button lights. I was distracted by the whiteness of the the phone charger down light. It took three layers of the blue tint film to go over that down light. I cut an oversized oval of tint film over that LED). One layer of tint film on the bowl LED's worked for me on the blueness effect.

 

Just got my new rear camera switch from air on board installed. It’s the “new blue” color they have that is a very close match to the OE switches. I must say I’m very impressed. It’s very very close to the OE switches ice blue illumination color. Much better than the white one I had previously. The picture doesn’t show the color the best but if your looking for a switch that matches I would def recommend these.

 

Do you have a link for the film? That’s a great idea. Been wanting to do something for the phone charger area light.

 

New wheels and tires. Method 305's 17x8.5 and Toyo Open Country AT3's on 265/70/17, no lift.

 

Bronze wheels go good with any color Taco.

 

Installed an auxbeam lightbar. The screws that came with the lightbar didn’t fit, luckily I had extra laying around haha.



I also put the pro grille back on

 

New shoes - Nitto Ridge Grapplers in a 265/70/17.

 

I had several of the big Jeep Wagoneers, Cherokees + a J 10 pickup -- all serious rusters, that is how I learned to weld... The Wagoneer was the nicest vehicle to live with that I have ever driven --- giving a bit of allowance for the 1962 design.

 

Painted the ladder and finished the wiring. Funny story, was re-drilling a hole and drilled straight through the strip light above the electrical panel...and it still works..lmao

I’m assuming that you are relocating the traction control button up to the overhead console. If you don’t already know, this harness extension is available to simplify that: https://accessorides.com/products/t...ness-for-3g-toyota-tacoma-2016-2019-plug-play
