    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Should be because double cabs didn't have it. That or you have to swap the whole center, but knowing Toyota it's gonna be a blank.

    Ouch. I kept putting this off because I could never find the time, and I finally just paid a mechanic. Turned out my Rear Main Seal was shot and that’s where I had a lot of my oil leaking. Now I’ll be able to clean it up and see where the other oil leaks are. Hopefully that was the biggest leak point. I know my oil pan is suspect.
    But my truck feels like a spring chicken!

    Yea I ain’t about that haha. I think the radios mounted in a great spot, I just don’t want to have my mic loose anymore. Probably gonna try and buy a air bag switch black if I can find a dealer that doesn’t charge 10$ in shipping

    If you go down to a 4x4 store, I'd get the Mastercraft Safety Baja RS seats, they're the reclining version of mine, I really like my seats. Suspension base is a nice feature, keeps back pain away.

    I don't think so. That switch was added due to regulations addressing when a baby car seat is used in the front row. The car seat had to face backwards, so if the A/B deployed, it would possibly throw the baby out of the seat.

    I imagine it was mandatory once pass side A/B was added.

    Double cabs didn't have it because they had rear seats, and if a full rear seat is present, using the fronts for children up to "x" weight and age is unlawful.
