What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

TRUTH! Ha Ha

 

Sounds like something someone with small knobs would say

 

Can't do that with the steering wheel controls, can you.

 

8 out of 10 women say size does matter!

I like to polish mine daily!

 

I know you just ran out to the truck to try it!

 

Doing mine next week! Sweet set up

 

You know it! Lol.

 

I would buy that in a heartbeat. I absolutely hate those control layouts.
Pretty much only 2 things I hate about my Tacoma that I can't change, those audio controls and not having auto headlights. Every other weird design choice I don't mind too much or have fixed in some way.

 

Mine has the auto headlights and honestly I'm unimpressed. They react a bit too fast, even flicking on and off traveling under a wide overpass. I just turned my headlights on permanently and problem solved. I have a list of other things that do annoy me about the truck that I'm slowly working through though but the two things I can't figure out how to change are the audio controls and how to retrofit OEM-grade full keyless functionality into the truck since Toyota decided MT's can't have that for some reason.

 

Rescued my school teacher wife. School let out early but the 20 mile drive was too long for her Corolla and roads became bad. She parked at a grocery store 10 miles from home and we left the car there for now.
I put new Duratracs on the Taco back in November. They did great. Passed the snow plow in the ditch 4 miles from home.

 

I would, only problem, I still have shocks on the truck. I bought a lightly used set of pro fox’s so I could get everything done and not have to take the truck apart while getting everything done. I’m just going to let the shop handle it. I’m paying for all the extra work anyway, and they’re putting the new UCA’s on too.

 

RAM mounts come tomorrow.

 

You know what they say about men with large hands...

 

This is a very nice un-intrusive mounting system. Fairly solid and when you don't need the mounts you can remove the balls and you don't even see the bracket. I love mine!

 

Try going back and forth driving a 4runner and the Tacoma. It's confusing AF. The 4runner at least gets its own separate up and down volume button.

 

They change the license plate lights from the front? ...

 

I just recently took the steering wheel apart to install AJT's color matched spokes, also in the hopes that I could just flip the controls counter clockwise. No luck. Unless you're an electronics wizard like Dave, it's all hard wired in there. Oh well.

I didnt take a good pic of it, once I saw it couldnt be done. That being said, if someone figures it out, my credit card is ready. I hate those controls.

 

Seems you could just swap the wires in there (note I said "you", not me.. i'd break something.. LOL)

 

I'm going to have to dig through my wiring diagrams to see if I can find that module. Knowing my luck it's CANbus.
