What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I miss when my kids were little but I don't miss car seats... Lol

 

Finally got my PRP custom seat covers in! Now I just have to find a day where I feel like destroying my hands to install them!

 

Finally finished up (well, almost) my DIY drawer/deck for the Grandpa Canopy.

Still sorting out if I need to box in the little cubbyholes in the back...I'll play with it a bit and see what works.

BTW, you know how you see these home built projects with the perfect finished metal trim? This is NOT that kind of project. I'm pretty certain that in order to get the perfect 45 degree cut and exact length on a piece of angle aluminum (and for the record, that is pronounced al-YOU-min-ee-um) you need to have access to Harry Potter-ish black magic. And you need to sacrifice a medium sized mammal on a pyre.

I don't have that. The magic, nor the furry creature. The neighbour's pet goat is safe. For the moment.

I had a framing square and a hacksaw.

And Redneck Cariboo lager.

3/4 inch plywood, some UHMW plastic, about a million screws and some wood glue and Rustoleum paint....my single concession to a 'cool tool' was a Kreg jig

I can add some dividers as I suss out my needs, p'raps some rubber matting to keep things from sliding about

And apparently I still need to add a second coat of paint, and dust, too.

 

Pick a hot day. Not that that will help the seat covers, but if it is warm you needn't feel guilty about drinking cold beer while you are torturing yourself. And the beer does in fact help relieve the discomfort in you hands.

It's a well-known fact. Look it up.

 

Thats the plan. The warm weather is actually supposed to help the covers stretch a bit easier as well so it's a win win!

 

Post photos!

 

I ordered from a dealership on Amazon. It was $30 less than from my local dealer!

 

Got rid of the Raptor lights today

 

What tail lights are those? Sick!

 

If you bring it all with you, what are you getting away from?

 

Well I think I have all the mods and updates that I wanted,
- TRD wheels, Yokohama all terrains
- TRD grille with the Rapter lights
- Kicker speaker replacement
- 4” sidebars
- rock deflector on the hood
Now getting ready to head out on the first road trip, leaving western Washington for eastern Washington, down to Utah to hang out in a couple national parks (Arches and Zion) then down to Phoenix, up and over the Sierras to the coast and back up to western Washington. A couple weeks should do it. Cheers all

 

Yeah, did the same, nice difference.

Can't wait to see how this works out for you! Please post after pictures, if it is not too much trouble.

One question for you. Do you have the electronic adjustable front seats? I heard the PRP seat covers won't work if you have the adjustable seat. If so, story of my life! I did contact PRP but they have not responded, so I was curious when I saw your post.

 

Sounds like a killer trip, enjoy!

You mean , like a thousand rounds?

 

Yeah really looking forward to it.

 

These are one of @MESO Customs hand made sets. I think this is one of the only sets with black chrome on the reverse light to keep my totally blacked out truck. He is currently working to make entirely new lights that are similar but may be awhile.
