What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks good. Which vendor?

 

Anyone have a link for oem bed step or aftermarket they would recommend?

 

I tend to use my truck bed a decent amount, so when I went with the trail edition I wasn't sure if the bed boxes would end up being a pro or con. But I have to say I am pleasantly surprised how useful they are. Can still load up bags of mulch or whatever it is that day and have storage for the tools that otherwise would be sliding around or in the cab. Also been able to fit two bikes on the mounts I installed on the header rail, fingers crossed I can fit two kayaks now that its getting warmer! I know the boxes come out relatively easy, I would just rather avoid the hassle and the clutter in the garage if I can.

 

I’m also interested in one of these and have a soft tonneau. They're a little pricey to not fit “just right.”

Haha, I bought mine at a swap meet in on Maui during our honeymoon almost 27 years ago - still love it.

 

Agreed. I've been looking through Google shopping and have found a few for around $270. Some as high as almost $300. So prices have varied considerably. Saying that, I don't wanna buy one, and have my soft cover not sit right.

 

If I recall reading a ways back, someone said they will fit with a cover but you have to switch the part that mounts it to the side rails so that the knobs that secure it face down. I’ll try and find the post if I can.

edit: found it.

edit edit: with how this mounts, I would imagine it would need to be more of a semi permanent divider setup as the tonneau cover being mounted to the rails also would hinder movement/removal of the divider.

 

If you do @Goatfrog, TIA!

Installed my new phone mount from offroam . No more wobbly phone!

 

you didn’t happen to bust that tiny top oem toyota screw like I did did you? Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t think it’s doing a whole lot structurally anyway (hopefully)

 

Where did you get the TRD badge from? Do you have a link ?

 

try this:

got these for my weathertech mats...

 

Yeah - I'd seen that thread earlier, but he only has TRD stickers and I only have a humble SR5 4 banger. I've complained plenty on here about how I wish I had the V6, so as a way of helping me love my 2.7, I'm searching for ways to dress up and customize her.

 

here's a link for the oem bed step, plus free shipping:

wonder if you contacted him if he'd make you a customized one...??

 

Funnily enough I had just contacted him to see if he would let me in on his super secret process.

 

awesome, hope he can fix you up! post some pics if he does...

 

Does anyone have a link to the adapter for the redarc brake controller? I wanna avoid splicing wires.
