What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Do it. It changes the dynamic of the entire soundstage of the truck. It really gives a good overall sound and introduces more highs into the muddy jbl system if that’s what’s you’re running still.

 

Yep. I have the rails, love them.

 

Added sound deadening. Forgot to take pics of all the doors, but you get the picture. Havent done the roof yet, and don't know if i will. The Taco puts up a good fight. After the doors , i may need a skin graft, lol.

 

I’ve been thinking about doing this, not sure if bed liner on top will negate the sound deadening effect. I lined the entire tub of my old 4Runner with bed liner and really want to do the same to the truck. You’d be surprised at how much salt builds up under the carpet during these winters, even with the floor mats. Doesn’t matter which brand.

Lots of people in the NE, or anywhere else that uses salt, forget that a vehicle can rot from the inside out also. If you spend a lot of time and money to rust proof the undercarriage, give some thought to doing the other half! It goes unseen, so most doesn’t get caught until it’s too late.

 

Oh i agree. Most of the family is from Iowa. I personally am not, but when we visit i see the carnage from road salt. The bedliner would help in the spare tub in the back. But maybe under the seats wouldn't sit exactly correct? But, i've seen it on the interior of Wranglers, so it can be done.

 

The DIY roll on stuff works great. I took a B&D mouse sander to scuff up everything, mixed a small amount of dish soap in a gallon jug to wash everything, rinsed thoroughly, let it sit for a day then rolled 2 coats on. Little bit of work, but worth it imo if you live in the salt areas and plan on keeping the vehicle. Drove it for a couple days with just the drivers seat, talk about road noise! Here’s a pic I could find

 

Installed Victory Off Road console Molle panels. They had a sale on them and just couldn't say no.

What radio do you have there?

Whomever has installed 05-UP TACOMA MULTI RATE RXT LEAF PACK W/ ADD IN LEAF is it worth it?

My buddy and I each bought one. Nothing fancy. We had been out at a place and had zero cell signal and had to keep stopping to discuss which way we wanted/should to go. For 100$ this is a cool little solution.

 

How's the leg room? I've been eyeing those panels for the last month, and since they're still on sale...

 

I've had mine in my truck about 6 months (same brand), and I've never had any legroom issues.

I'm also 5-5 and have seat jackers on front AND back.

 

I'm 5'11", no issue. The radio does touch my right leg a bit.. so I may move it. I'm sure I'll move things around on them.

I will also add I received these rather quickly. Definitely opposed Victorys proposed lead time of 10-15 days or whatever the site says.

 

I’ve also been looking for an alternative that won’t break the bank

 

Seems fairly decent.. Haven't had the opportunity to use it yet. Only had it for 2 days. We figured it can't be that bad. Should serve its purpose. It has a cable to plug into the truck to recharge the batteries. Kind think it should have come with those 9 AA rechargeables.. but for 100 beans I'm not going to argue.

 

The black are smoked and these are clear lens and blacked out housing and smoked macaroni noodles the white part of the lights.

 

They look so good

 

Yeah the rechargeable packs are always nice. Do you have to use the magnetic antenna or can it be used with a larger mounted bracket?
