What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Kind of remind me of Ghostbuster.

 

Same for me. I too purchased my headlights from eBay and also had to seal them because they were not done very well. I’ve never priced the TRD Pro ones before, but I think my next set will be those.

 

Hey guys my horn started working intermittently on my '14. I know early 2nd gens had this problem, and it looks like its the horn switch which makes total sense. Anyone have other ideas of fixes before i tear into the steering wheel?

 

Now that’s a lot of suds. What did you use for the wash? Nice looking truck.

 

I got them off Amazon, but the ones I purchased don't appear to be available anymore. They were maybe $15, so I didn't mind gambling on them that they would fit. They fit really well, but we'll see about the integrity of the double sided tape they used to stick on

 

Not really work done on the truck, but for the truck. Rearranged the garage so I can get her parked inside.

 

Ah yes the Taco/ Odyssey combo...I've got the same. Wife drives a '21 EX-L

 

My guess would be the spiral cable. I have also heard it called the clock spring.

 

what about stereo controls or cruise control? working or no? mine had recall for clockspring but never turned airbag light on....but my cruise control would not work. Changed it out and all good. Hell with dealership jacking with it, lol. Not worth the free one from them.

 

Did the Matt Gecko led mods for hood and bed (cause I needed a project today and ...why not)

build thread (Some long overdue attention for my 09)

 

How do you like your headlights? Thinking I might go with those when I upgrade.

 

I had them under my hood and in my toolbox on my 3rd gen. Loved them and my toolbox lights lit up most of my bed. Had them between 4 and 4.5 years trouble free. He makes good stuff. Will probably add these to my 2008 eventually. Need to repaint or replace hood first. Still have hood struts in my pile for whenever I do something with my lacking clear coat hood.
This was my 3rd gen lights

 

I'm running the AphaRex Pro Lights with GTR Ultru 2 LED's swapped in for the halogens. I like them a lot. I was worried that they might actually be too bright but after adjustment they seem to be ok and no one has yet flashed me (yet)...so we'll see.

 

Thinking of doing this as well.
Do you have any pictures of the output?

 

here are some pics of the headlight output. I may need to do some more tweaking of the adjustment but I feel its close.

Do you have a link for the place you purchased the overlays from?

 

Started shopping for tires...

 

Steering wheel emblem chrome was getting peely, so threw on an overlay… Not too bad.

Has anyone used those TacomaBeast rear bumper covers to get rid of the chrome? Cheesy?
Wondering whether it’s worth the $160 to preserve my unblemished bumper, rather than sand and paint.

I've had two sets of Discoverers, 1 set AT3 & 1 set AT3 4S on my Tacoma and I love them so much I traded out the factory OEMs on my Jeep Compass For Discoverer AT3 4S's as soon as I could.
