What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

And also added this vinyl decal above the driver’s side blacked out emblem overlay.

Has a couple of bubbles only noticeable up close, but I like it!!

 

I think you’re just saying that. You’re actually not amazed.

 

is this something you did yourself? If so do tell!!

 

I'll put this on the list.

I used to carry my bear spray there in my old truck and annoying not to have that spot on my new one.

 

All photos of mostly stock tacomas from this angle just look like derp cat. Grille looks good, though.

 

I had to get brave and cut the hole for the cubby. It wasn’t that bad. Measure twice/cut once and go slow! I thought there were pop outs for the bed lights though. Mine came with them.

 

New grill @customcargrills and battery holder @Coupe! Super pumped on everything

 

I put some mods on my new Tacoma today! Toyo 35"s, Method 18x9 -12's, and a 6" lift.

Also new to this forum in general. Been reading and following for weeks, happy to be a part of the community officially now.

 

I think theres at least one manufacturer that makes some where you dont have to trim (maybe total chaos?), but if you do need to its not too bad. A sharp utility knife makes easy work of it. Heres mine:

 

I did! It was super easy! Plug and play! Just youtube "trd tacoma tail light installation" and you should get the basics on how to remove and install the new one.

Literally take off two 10mm bolts to remove the tail light (The second one from the top AND the bottom one). Then pull the housing unit toward yourself. Two clips are holding it in. Detach the three connectors (the reverse light connector was super difficult to remove though). Then plug the connectors into the new tail light. Snap it back into the two clips. Then put the two 10mm bolts back on.

The hardest part as I said was I couldn't remove the reverse light connector without also removing the light bulb. Since the original light bulb was only a month old, I just kept it there. No biggie. Just twisted it into the new tail light housing unit and it was good as gold!

 

Funny, they follow me everywhere now.

 

I thought maybe you took your tail lights apart and did some blacking out. Not just replacing. Look good though.

 

ETSY ......saw on ebay too

 

Welcome to the forum

Looks like you will fit right in here -- we like !

 

Ohhh!!! I wish I had that type of skill. Would've saved me almost $250 if I did!

Nah. I bought the TRD Pro Tail Lights (Nighttime Edition). I will likely sell the originals.

 

What did you do/use to paint them black? Been meaning to do this. Looks good!

 

Welcome to TW! Nice looking rig!
