    After a 6-month wait, I finally received my SSO rear bumper. Raptor lined it to match the front bumper.

    I found using a really small flat head helped open em up. Agreed that was probably the more annoying part.

    the cable covers are marked//look different where the clips go so I didn’t feel like I needed to mark the spots but had done so already so oh well lol

    Yet somehow the headlights are half the price of doing it yourself

    Installed my 23Zero 180R awning this past weekend. Here are a couple of quick shots showing the awning extended.

    Got my Taco at the beginning of the month. Lost my original to flooding during Ida. Since I got my new one I've:
    -Did the chrome delete from AJT Designs, just wished someone made something to cover the center cup holder for MT that isn't a vinyl sticker. Also used the black door handle covers from MESO.
    -Put on my old Covercraft seat covers.
    IMG20220426095636.jpg IMG_20220426_100634.jpg
    -Replaced the interior lights, backup lights, and license plate light with LEDs.
    IMG20220426095720.jpg
    -Installed the Anytime Backup Camera.
    IMG20220426095553.jpg IMG20220426095657.jpg
    -Added a molle panel to arm rest (Victory 4x4).
    IMG20220426101946.jpg
    -Hardwired an always on power source for when I need to bring my Dometic with me.
    IMG20220426095538.jpg IMG20220426095515.jpg IMG20220419070504.jpg IMG20220419070449.jpg
    -Removed the rear headrests.
    -Harwired my dashcam (Rexing V1P with rear camera).
    IMG20220426095247.jpg
    -Did the OVTune (I'm loving it).
    -Chrome deleted exterior lettering and tinted windows.
    IMG20220426095123.jpg IMG20220426095206.jpg
    -Removed OEM tonneau cover and put on my old tonneau cover (TruXedoSentry CT).
    IMG20220426102527.jpg
    -Added the black inlays to the tailgate.
    IMG20220426095148.jpg
    -Added molle panels to truck bed (Victory 4x4 for sides and CaliRaised for front).
    -Install bed stiffeners (Victory 4x4).
    -Installed OEM LED bed lights.
    -Installed power tailgate lock.
    -Added my original bed mat.
    IMG20220422161441.jpg
    -Tried undercoating for the first time, I think I did a pretty good job. Used Woolwax Black.
    -Installed Talon's Garage cat protector (and undercoated it).
    -Did the AC drain mod fix (you can see the new outlet by the cat protector).
    IMG20220426095819.jpg
    -Installed a motion activated security camera to monitor my Taco.

    Honestly, it is perfect size for a couple of people. For my needs it works great. 23Zero makes a bigger version of the 180 also

    pretty much everything
    Installed the Southern Style Off-Road Slimline full plate bumper. The instructions on their YouTube video are great and easy to follow. I was a bit nervous to start cutting but the end result was well worth it. I also installed a Smittybilt X2O GEN3 10K Winch and Baja Designs 20 inch Amber light bar.

    How much of a PITA was it to change the key housing? Been thinking about doing it as well.
