    There’s the link to the marine board and a screenshot of the cup holders.

    I traced the factory ridged panel and used it as a template for the screw holes. Once I had the panel off I measured out where the cup holders would go and drilled the holes with a holesaw bit. If you have one I would use a router instead of a jigsaw like I used to cut the panel. This thread is also pretty informative

    I wanted: access cab, Sport, Inferno, manual.
    Inferno color discontinued for 2019, purchased CPO with 12,000 miles, RWD not very common here in the North East. And you never know, I might "need" it someday... ;) (I do exercise the 4x4 for several miles each month.)

    That sucks. Whenever I’m parked half way in I always turn one of the two sensors up. If the two sensors aren’t facing each other the door won’t close.

    Did a few minor things to mine tonight:
    • Replaced the reverse lights to LED to tide me over until I can pick up the Total Tail thing from Meso (I want the amber turn signals).
    • Added a blue TRD Tri-Color badge to the front grill.
    • Swapped the radio knobs over to RAV4 ones.
    • Installed the MESO Gasshole.
    I have a ton of parts still sitting here, just need a solid weekend day to tackle it, or maybe burn up a PTO day in a week or two.

    no trial/error. I found the correct procedure to follow and should be done any time a lift is installed (front/rear/both)

    unfortunately I didn’t have enough time before we left and I regret it 100%. It was horrible driving at night since I raised my ass I had no distance to my lights, probably lost close to a foot in height in the long range.

    Yes, I decided that would be a good idea after the fact. I’ll t-cut it tomorrow, I’m sure it’ll be fine... plus it’s on the roof so I will be the only one that’ll see it if it is scratched.

    That's a horrible idea. What time?

    Mine does not rattle at all. It has two (per bracket) knobs you tighten. One to the rail and the second to the divider. No movement.

    The bottom of the divider does not rest on the cargo bed. It is about 1-2" above.

    I hear you. I don't like scratches either. But they are inevitable with the way I use my truck.

    Day before yesterday, but who’s counting?

    I went over and met up with @wahoobie and had him put his Frankentune on the truck.

    what an amazing improvement in regards to pedal responsiveness, smoothness of power and a lack of the truck hunting for the right gear to be in. Only driven it 50ish miles but I haven’t had to switch over to ECT to feel like I wasn’t driving a poorly mapped slug.
