What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Epic!! What did that cost you to do all that sound proofing?

 

Someone here posted before that the dealer they bought the OEM bed mat from offered to install it for a fee of like $30. LOL

 

I have a 5 min commute and still on stock battery July 18 build. Haven’t topped off or anything and seems to be chugging along. I don’t thing it’s ever really started with a confidence though

 

I think for those complaining about removing a shell to perform the job should really look at what’s involved in the install instructions (even if it’s the trim ring only and not a replaced light)

I hate going to a job when the customer doesn’t provide enough room/space for me to do the job… a case of not understanding what it takes or lack of consideration for anyone but themselves. For me it’s a matter of safety- I won’t contort or risk injury to work around your mess (I’ve done it and been rewarded for it unfortunately which is why I won’t do it again)

fyi a bead of sealant needs to be put down around the whole perimeter and not just the top of the light. Pdf instructions are floating around on this site if you search it. Also I get the not broke don’t fix but my theory is part of the leaks are due to gasket degradation over time (they were originally thin which is why a new light gets the revised, thicker, gasket) so by doing nothing now may cost you a headache down the road- interior rip out due to mold infestation. Food for thought

 

It likely also has something to do with climate, and not just in a North or South way. In Oklahoma I went through at least two batteries in the 4 years I had my last car there, but in the last four years in Massachusetts I never needed to replace my battery right up until it got totaled last week. It had to be something to do with how the cold-snaps happen in Oklahoma that caused batteries to pre-maturely crap the bed. Up here they just get cold and stay cold for months at a time and they seem to be ok. I did have to replace the battery in my wife's car early after the move, so who knows.

 

I’ve had a damaged canopy roof panel sent twice because of freight shipper damage (both different companies). I had to persuade a resolution that cost me more but I can say it was worth the extra to get my 3rd roof sent Not damaged

 

Awe man, bummer dude, hopefully you get unmanaged replacements. I talked to Sparks Toyota a while back and they said they were not shipping any headlamps until further notice because of shipment damage. They said once they get a reliable process for shipping them then they would resume. Ive got the harness and will order from Merritta Toyota who has good prices and go get them.

 

Simple mod, but so satisfying and easy to install! Meso customs map lights. These bad boys are BRIGHT!!!

Pending other parts

 

I’d think or thought the fogs should be aimed below the headlight spot light. If that’s the case they are a little high, going off your garage panels I’d say 6” or so

this is where I’d aim them in red line

 

Something about the super bright light is negated a bit by the "Vehicle Data Transmission" sticker.

 

Wow that’s awesome and not terrible price wise.. thank you!!!

 

Which year and model do you have with that dash? Looks good!!!

 

Easy stuff today. 1 Mat but I installed it back wards at first should have paid $30.00 cause I had to turn it around. Put 4 Mud Flaps on before I got a ticket on the back tires there enforcing it here once in a while? Seat covers in a few days still waiting on them. Dropping off my Pirelli Scorpion Winter tires to be mounted on the extra rims I bought.

 

Is it a law to have mud flaps ?

 

Yakima Overhaul with medium HD bars. Also got load stops and a SUPdawg for the paddleboard. Went a bit overboard today

 

Gear Tech Customs splash guard install because mine were terrible. One was missing and my clips were destroyed.

Yes in Washington State your Rear Tires have to have Fenders or mud flaps at least down to the middle of the rear tire to be legal.

 

Makes sense. kicks less shit up for all

 

Washington does have a law (RCW 46.37. 500) requiring that vehicles have bumpers or mud flaps that extend to the middle of the rear axle, which would prevent rocks from being thrown rear-ward. However, virtually every pickup truck and half of the SUVs sold in Washington lack the required mud flaps.

 

Experienced some serious Fog driving the Taco into Work this morning.
The Pro RiGid Fogs did well.

OEM LED Parking Lights on with the fogs.
