What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

When I was a kid, I had 4 cerwin vega re-38s in my room. I could rattle the neighbors house with those things. Sadly I think I threw them away along time ago. Wish I saved them, they are worth some good money now.

 

Anybody have any bed mat installation instructions? It didn’t come with any and this doesn’t look right.



Just kidding! Free shipping the best $89 spent

 

The install on the long bed looks a lot more difficult than the SB.

I hope you researched how to do it first.

 

It just took a little longer

 

Gotcha! That's how I'd do it too.
I learn more here than the Google machine.

 

I hope you used the wet method. If not you ruined it.
If you installed it dry then roll it up and ship it to me. I will pay you $45. Consider it the cost of a lesson learned. I will refurbish it in my shop. My labor rate is $50 an hour so I am losing money just accepting it. This is more of a public service than anything else. I will repair it and post it on craigslist locally and hopefully get $65 or $70 for it. So I only lose around $25 on the deal. Then go buy a new one and install it using the "wet" method. No need to thank me. I would extend this charitable courtesy to any member.

 

I got mine on eBay for $99 CAD shipped

 

I installed my @MESO Overhead Hexrack this morning. Took me about 30 minutes start to finish to get tools together and finish the install. I took my time, though, so those of you who are more mechanically inclined will do it faster. Typical excellent MESO quality, tools and even some spare parts included just in case. I will eventually replace the screws/washers with black ones - worked too hard to eliminate the chrome to go backwards.

 

It is new. It came out on May 12th. I'm pretty sure he has had the regular Hexrack, for those without a sunroof. I've been waiting for the model for those with a sunroof.

 

That looks awesome, and functional. Great... now I need that too...

 

Yeah. Just did mine yesterday. It's a 20-30 minute install. That includes gathering tools and putting them away.

 

I didn't drive the truck for a few weeks, mostly taking the family SUV and walking to the stores. Had to give it a wash, bought the bucket deal from AZ for $25 and had the kids help.

 

Same! Mine is arriving today.

 

Yeah I'll be swapping out the screws too. Need to find some quality black screws. Almost all chrome is gone with the exception of the Toyota logo on my grille

 

How much did the charger and install cost?

 

Decal was wrong color and bigger than I wanted. Found a place for it while also Increasing my HP by 5.

 

So Toyota actually sells black emblems (not overlays) that are included on SX models. I owned an SX and had the dealership look up parts numbers on them.

The difference is minor but to me is huge, being that the "A" in tacoma and the hole in the "6" aren't filled in like on the overlays.

I always like to ask what tools were used during this complicated installation process

 

A sharp knife, that saran wrap they put around the actual mat is some tough stuff
