What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Traded it for a new one!

 

Lol… what made you trade it? The scoop?! Color?! Trans?!

 

The fact that they gave me more then I payed for it new, Transmission, color and premium package! This SOB was HARD to find!

 

Yeah. Makes sense, I understand the 6mt’s are hard to come by. I waited six months for one to show up and didn’t even get that one… dealership emailed me and said they had a similar one that hit the lot, don’t think I’ll ever sell it because it was such a pain to find.

 

Get a video of start up and rev for me. I wanna hear that baby purrrrrr...

 

Personally, I want mine as dim as possible. LED not needed.

 

And that's perfectly alright. There really isn't any good reason to change the bulbs. The stock bulbs still shine on the backup camera, which is the entire problem the glare blockers and wiring harness are designed to alleviate. It annoyed me enough to spend 7 bucks to fix it.

 

I tried to upload my video, but no dice…….any advice on how I can?

 

Upload to YouTube and post the link.

 

Tomorrow

 

I am not sure if I like this. Or hate it. Either way it confuses me....

 

Anyone know a part number or where I can get this switch? Or where I can get something to fill the hole? It's a weird shape and not the size of my USB switch. I honestly don't even need the USB, just don't want it empty. Thanks in advance!

 

Agree with all that...except I don't think Tundra has anywhere near the ground clearance of a Taco. Any stock Tacoma beats Tundra on approach, breakover, and departure. The "running ground clearance" numbers manufacturers and magazines use (the one that tends to vary between 8 and 12 inches) is completely arbitrary and ridiculous. Hope they maintain that in 2024 Taco but spy photos appear otherwise.

 

What size did you run for power?

 

Had to modify the gatorback brackets because I was rubbing bad on full lock… stock tires (50% wear) no lift etc. got a heavy discount but wish it fit as expected especially for the damn price. Unfortunately it’s still not quite enough (full lock over any bump ex. Pull out of the driveway). Passenger side was worse than drivers but both needed modified.


Added lights on the carrier so I dont get hit


Then I used it and took a road trip

 

Gotta look up why. Believe it or not, the LEDs look great but the design of those housing shines straight up into the camera with or without them. If you put your hand over half that housing you will see the cutoff stop at your tailgate. In the threads about this mod it actually shows the difference in the image the camera gets after doing it too. I wasnt a believer, but I tested with my hand there and saw the cutoff pretty clear cut so I decided to order a $10 set and try it out. It's a nice little difference for a cheap mod. Pretty surprising and the camera quality is actually very noticeable, especially in person.

 

How does it sound???

 

Post Pictures.

 

THIS @andersen24

 

I agree it is a great Mod, 10.00 was worth it and its the same material as the bumper and a perfect cut out fit.
