What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Which CDT models? They make some neat speakers.

 

Bummer. I've just started using mine this past year after owning the truck for nearly 5 years. I think I'm going to stop using it and go back to my cable charger as my truck is just about completely out of warranty.

 

Never even used mine and got the bubble. Luckily I was still under warranty at the time, and the dealership took care of it. No problems since getting it replaced, but still avoid using it.

 

Not who you quoted, but I recently mounted some DD SS3 pods using the BAMF behind the grill bracket. Pics below.

The bracket is extremely well designed, and theres even one up for sale in the 3rd gen marketplace!

Finally got the OEM roof rack installed. What a saga…not to mention a PITA. Missing hardware kit, replacement shipment (also missing hardware kit), more missing parts identified during first failed attempt at installation, multiple calls/emails to the vendor (who finally just stopped replying altogether…ask me if you want to know who not to order OEM parts from), finding a source for the hard to find missing square metric nut (have quite a few now if anyone needs one), etc. It’s on there, but only after dealing with a stripped and stuck bolt that about pushed me over the edge. Why such a simple rack is so difficult is beyond me. Shouldn’t be any leaks since I replaced the neoprene washers with better rubber ones and was generous with the RTV, too…but I’m apparently already snake bit on this job so time will tell. On the positive note, no clearance issues with the shark fin.

I do like the look and that the crossbars stow away when not needed. Know there are better and beefier rack options out there, but I only need this for occasional use when I need to tote a canoe (in concert with a hitch stand). Just didn’t want it sitting on the roof.

 

I finally found a cement hood with a scoop yesterday. Grabbed it for 850. And installed it today. Really easy process.

 

Thank you, sir! Exactly what I was looking for and hoping. Much appreciated

Who makes the molle panel for the rear of the center console?

 

Have you noticed any difference ?

 

Christmas in July. Ordered yesterday and just delivered 30 minutes ago, installing mañana

 

thats a sexy r34! I want to get an S14 or an AE86 some time in the future if I can ever find one. those older jdm nissans and toyotas are sick.

 

Cough it up, Who's the vendor?

 

thanks. It’s a Midnight Purple 3. Prices are going stupid so better jump on it now

 

Awesome!
How do I bookmark this as its something I want to come back to visit soon, lol

 

Do you happen to have a link for the knob or know which one it is?

 

@MGMDesertTaco Unity 8.0 in the dash, HD6915 in front and HD-6EX.2 in the back. Really impressive, especially considering the price point. Need to figure out the tuning, but with minimal eq adjustment (just tuning by ear) it already sounds great.

@Renden it makes a HUGE difference, primarily for rattles of course (not so much for killing road noise etc, not designed for that). Also use butyl rope between the crossbars in the door and the outer door skin, and seal up all the holes in the inner skin as much as you can. I do prefer Resonix cld, you don’t have to use as much as with Dynamat for the same results so it ends up costing about the same but is less work and less weight.

 

West Kendall Toyota…out of Florida. They had a good price and free shipping, but never again. They actually wanted me to pay shipping to return a rack that they sent me without the hardware kit, but they quickly reconsidered that.

The parts specialist that I worked with was actually pretty nice, but he had to ask his manager for approval for everything. And the manager was apparently not customer service oriented.

So two roof racks, both shipped without a hardware kit. Ended up receiving the hardware kit in a separate shipment, but turned out the rack was also missing some pre-installed hardware (that’s not part of the hardware kit). That’s when they stopped returning calls and email.

 

New tires mounted.
