    Installed the Rigid spot lights I scored on Woot (thanks @Gregthespy!) Went with the Relentless Fab brackets and an OE “style” switch in the dash.

    My sliding rear window was leaking so bad so I took the opportunity to get a cleaner look and solid window. Never liked the sliding glass on these trucks (or any truck for that matter)

    Glad to see them mounted already! I plugged one of mine in yesterday and being the first Rigid light I’ve owned, it sure blows away the Cali Raised and Nilights I’ve used.
    I’m building a prinsu clone rack and I’m tinkling they’ll get mounted up there.

    I was looking at the bushwacker flares. How much more tire coverage do they give? How much wider are they compared to OEM?

    I finally finished detailing the paint on my recently purchased ‘08 Tacoma. The top picture is the day after I brought it home. It needed new tires and I wanted to paint the wheels so I did and the next day I went and bought new tires.
    Next I detailed the interior. Then I washed, clayed and polished the paint. Next I will detail the wheels, tires and wheel wells. I will use a plastic restoration product on all the plastic and rubber trim. Last but not least I will detail the engine bay.
