    Man, that's really shoddy. My local dealer gave me the new air filter when it was due and said, "we just left the cabin filter in your passenger seat, Your filter was still clean so we didn't change it". Due to me changing the cabin filter prior to this service. I guess, I can trust my dealer??

    You would have to look around for a specific 9mil wall mount for an AR 9 mil. With that said, make sure whatever wall mount you buy has a locking retention simulating a magazine. Some of the wall mounts on the market do not engage the mag lock. Those will not work for the Hex Rack set up as the AR will just slide in and out. Also and super important, if you plan on running 2 ARs in the same direction like I did, make sure whatever brand wall mount you purchase has the simulated mag on both sides of the piece that goes into the mag well. I know that sounds confusion, but imagine mounting it on a wall you should be able to switch the direction the barrel is pointing and in both of those directions the mag lock on the AR will be engaged. I go over it in the video, it's easier to understand while I'm holding the AR wall mount.



    The wall mounts I used lock into the mag well simulating a mag. To remove, the mag lock needs to be pressed. I went into better detail on the quote above and in the install video.
    Thanks, it's a Specwar 308, I use it for my stamped 300 BO SBR thats in the pic.

    Added the OEM Tail gate auto lock. Took about an hour with 15 minutes of that getting tools out. Probably going to be one of my favorite practical updates right below the bed liner. 20210725_203318.jpg

    Thanks man, option 2 is what I think I wanna do when I get the RXTs. I currently have a Deaver aal and I'm hoping to get another inch or so from the Icons to get a little rake back.

    I can fit a 3rd car in here if I wanted to! The challenger is in the perfect center. but now I got the kids bikes not all piled up on the side... plus I got the extra space to buy the small 2 person bass boat I want.

    Sounds like you've got a good dealer, there are some out there, just not here...

    My air filter was just as bad, I've temporarily blown them out using my compressor but will get some ordered. I had told the service rep that I've done a lot of dusty off roading recently and specifically asked them to check both filters. On the checklist he ticked that he had checked them. Lame work shy dumb ass!

    i'm not sure what kind of wheels you have and if the part number i posted for the toyota oem black lug nuts would fit your 2018 tacoma but here's a link on black lug nuts that might help you out:

    Made it out after dark this evening on an end of weekend ice cream run. Have to say that the LASFITs are a nice upgrade over the stock halogens. Was impressed with the low beam brightness and color (only got flashed at once), and the high beams really lit things up. I wasn’t looking to drop a lot of $ on light bulbs, but would say these are a pretty good option at just over $100 for all four. Time will tell how they hold up though.

    Finally got my topper. 16 weeks from the order date. That was a test of patience! I do really like it though.

    The funny thing (at least to me) is that I hated the oem decals on the truck bed, so I removed them soon after I got it. But then I was looking at decals on a site I found here and decided I just had to have the one with mountains. When I went to put them on yesterday, I had an idea...

    If I had to do this over, I would definitely move the bed side sticker down a bit. I think it looks pretty cool though.

    Def. put more space between the decals. It looks ok up close, but it is too close together when viewed from a distance.
