    1. If you do, mount everything onto the tray first, then mount the tray (I used red Loc-Tote) to the engine bay side. The Blaze Off-Road tray includes hardware and rubber grommets to decrease vibration. I used a 2' premade cable for the power source, and built one for the negative bus to the truck (Bluesea instructions indicate the battery negative terminal, however).
    2. A downside with this setup is the lack of physical buttons, but I plan on using my Android tablet (also used to monitor the powered cooler; and also from my iPhone) to control the switch from a mount. There seems to be no issues connecting multiple devices to the Powerswitch so far.

    Looks very clean, professional, and crisp on the grey...

    Might I recommend swapping out the chrome butt cheek covers for matte black to match the fender flares?

    Thanks! It’s the nicest non high clearance bumper I could find.

    At the Helm makes it. They are a vendor here and have a sub forum.

    Installed a garage opener switch for our automatic gate, but retrofitted it to work with our gate FOB.

    I used to have a Flowmaster 40 series delta flow muffler on my 2002 2.7l first gen tacoma. It was a lot of fun around town, but not so much on long trips with the drone. It's definitely loud and has a unique sound though. :burnrubber:

    I responded to your PM. In case anyone else is wondering I think it is the same part.

    My Tacoma is still rocking the chrome butt cheeks. :rolleyes: I intended to upgrade to the painted caps, but I figured maybe someday I'd swap the whole bumper for something more functional.

    Well FedEx showed up today after noon, dropping off the Engine skid plate, so installed that tonight. Before, after, and a look at the leftovers.


    Before, can't really see old skid :)

    A butt is always fulfilling a function... It's all about how it looks doin' it... ;)

    Just making a suggestion.
    I drive a pumpkin. Black and orange go together. (And I hate the Flyers; big Rangers fan...)

    Just offering my two cents....
