What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Installed BD fogs, mounted my powertank bracket behind the rear right passenger seat for easy hideaway and test fit my new wheel/tire setup.

 

Just bought my Tacoma and wanted to do something simple to start off with as a mod. Easy MagLite mount on driver side seat. Success. After all, you can never have too much lighting

 

I've got the same one. Thing is solid.

 

Any pics? BTW welcome to TW!

 

Welcome to TW! Nice Maglight

 

You can buy it and if it doesn’t fit right sell it to me at the discounted not new price

 

OK - NEW Project: Rear Seat Dual USB Port 6.4a QC-3.0 (Quick Charge) with Blue LED Digital Voltmeter

Everyone seems to like to use those BlueSea waterproof USB connectors - because they are round and easy to install I guess...
That's fine. I honestly don't know when I would ever submerge my Taco into a lake or the open sea - so I don't need it to be watertight.

So, that being said - cut out a small rectangle on the back of my rear console cover...


Saw these Dual USB Port 6.4A QC3.0 'Quick Charger' with Blue LED Digital Voltmeter for Toyota (Surface Size 1.3 x 0.9 inches) on Amazon.
They are blue when they are on - and turn red when they are plugged in and charging.
Nice flush mount. (Built in a solid plastic mount bracket on the back)


Did a quick power test - see how it looks... (blue for on, red for charge)


Looks good - red and charging!


Next up - need to make a power cable to connect this into the area between the center console USB connector and the re-located 12v cigarette lighter connector.
I'll also be re-locating the Car-Play USB media connector from the front to the center console as well.

 

First Nice Day with no rain in sight. Washed her.

 

That’s awesome! If you don’t mind me asking, what size tires are you running?

 

I put on a set of TRD Baja's that I got a really good deal on locally.

 

Looks like 245/65/16s to me






His build page says 315/75/16 KM3s... My guess was pretty close.

 

Those wheels look awesome on your truck! Been thinking about getting a set myself.

 

So I'm not sure how useful it will be, but I think it looks awesome. I put my snorkel on this morning. Very impressed with the fit and install on the ARB kit, it is rock solid!

 

Like Gettin Lost said, 315/75/16’s. The wide angle pic just makes them look like 14 wides or something.

 

Thanks! I was looking for a while and gave up. Apparently they're discontinued now. This set popped up on FB marketplace and had them on the back of my truck within 15 minutes.

 

Very cool idea!

 

Thanks! That’s what I’d like to go with eventually once I get re-geared.

 

That’s awesome! Keeping my fingers crossed I can locate a set. Preferably 5, but 4 would work too.

 

With 5.29’s and a tune the truck turns the tires no problem. Definitely not lacking power over factory imo.

 

What lights are those. Don't recognize them.
