What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

You can still see the square depending on the light, but overall not too shabby. Still better than the stickers.

 

Looks pretty damn good. Yeah there's a slight "ghost" sticker but like you said, way better than the dumb stickers.

If someone wanted to make a buttload of cash they would come up with decent visor covers or a full on aftermarket visor assembly...that doesn't suck Shit I'd pay way too much money for a set.

 

Took off my hood decal because it was starting to crack and looking old. I also finally cut my bed mat to fit my 0-tracks.

 

Not to hijack the post but I installed a switch to the left of the steering wheel and ran power directly to the battery. I didn't want a switch at the back of the bed like some have done. The lights are really nice and bright.

 

I installed my PRP seat covers. I’m really impressed with the quality of their product. Took me about 2 hours to install them. I also installed heated seats for it as well. Got them off of EBay and they come with factory looking controls that fit in the dash. And sorry couldn’t figure out how to rotate the other two pics!

 

Dang!! Shade for an outdoor Livingroom.

 

looks just like the back of mine!!! Have had my 1UP for about 7 years now. Always on the truck (and previously the RAV4). I ride more int he fall and winter, and it works well in those conditions too.

that looks freaking great!!! I really got get that mod going...no more excuses

 

Mounted this today. Will have to finish the wiring another day. I had to make sure it works well as a front cam for my DMH-W4660NEX. Seems like a good quality cam. I was hoping for the rca jack to be already grounded but It wasn’t, so I have to physically use the ground wire. I’m using the red accessory +wire of the HU as a trigger wire. I’m thinking of routing the cable in one of the rubber boot in the passenger side firewall…any good advice where to route it? Thanks!

These are the ones that I am going to get. There is a really good Youtube on the quality and the install here, for those that are interested:

Question for you, if you don't mind. Were the ones that you ordered compatible with the side air bags? I was waiting to order mine until the new version came out that was side airbag compatible. I called PRP and they said they were in the works ... so I was on hold.

I am looking forward to getting these ... with two dogs and a kid that thinks he is a wolf, apparently.

 

Yeah that is badd and it has the 22R motor you cant kill them things I had one in my 87 it was great

 

Do you mind me asking how much length it adds to your taco … I need a hitch mount rack, but I’m pretty limited in addition space in the garage. Sigh

 

Im new to this forum! just picked up a 2018 TRD Off Road.

I just swapped out the interior lights with LED's. Headlights also got an upgrade, Halogens are now LED's, and installed a Tailgate lock. Not too bad for day 1!

 

Finished Installing my axe/shovel mounts after getting a new shovel. Also added some new hand tools to the tool bag I keep in the truck.

 

Yes! Mine are side air bag compatible. And yes, I watched the same video when I installed them. I didn’t take my seats out, and it was still pretty easy with them in. FYI I ordered mine 5/19 and just got them on 8/11. I’m not sure how long it is now, but definitely worth the wait!

 

Sounds like you get stuck a lot.

Welcome to the Money Pit.

 

Ordered a Pro grill from MC Autoparts....kinda excited!

 

Tru-cool m7B trans cooler. Significant drop in temps!

Ignore the missing hose clamp. This was a photo as I was in progress

 

Was this a direct swap?

 

For me it wasn’t. I have a 2021, so it had no cooler and I plan on towing heavy (for a Tacoma) loads. I bought the cooler and fittings, 3/8 tubing (to make my hard lines), factory Toyota hose clamps and all of the parts (e.g hard pass through dual line, mounting bracket, hoses etc) for the factory oil cooler from an older MY 3rd gen. So it’s basically using all the factory pieces and an aftermarket cooler. I went a little overboard but wanted a factory type of look and didn’t want rubber hoses draped everywhere.

 

Yep, if he tried to weasel out of it, that would be one thing, but he didn't - at least not yet. We'll see once the estimate comes in. Haha.

Plus, honestly, it was really just about a perfect day except for this incident and I was having so much fun, I didn't want to let this put a damper on it. Once he apologized and offered to pay for the damage, I considered it settled. It was a dumb mistake. Guy got caught up in the moment and made a bad call. Happens to the best of us. Time will tell if he's a man of his word.
