What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

For $100? Well worth it, the highs are now much more defined, love listening to my tunes while I drive my Taco!

 

R4T's lock is quiet! I have to stand near tailgate to hear it, otherwise I don't hear it.

 

Did you make that or where the heck did you get it? It’s frickin sweeeet man!!

 

I made them both. The larger Minime RC is a 3d printed panel kit from Mfab. The smaller one is a Hotwheels. Both are just basic Tacoma's and I made and/or added accessories to look like my truck. You can find more info here.

I will try it out and. At be make a video for you tube.

 

Shock relocation going on today!

 

Added an amber LED hidden light bar. Needed amber for snow storms but didnt want to change the fogs, like the look of all white for everyday use.

Update to the @tacomalifestyle third brake light...

It turns out the trim gasket (00948-CHSML) doesn't fit well with the tacomalifestyle third brake light. No matter how you position the trim piece there's a solid 1/4" gap on one side or all along the bottom. With that said, I removed the tacomalifestyle third brake light and installed the new OEM Toyota light I bought previously along with the silicone (00948-CHSML-HW) and trim gasket (00948-CHSML).

OEM parts for the win.

I did email my concerns to @tacomalifestyle about their third brake light not being waterproof and the nut posts being too short making the install more complex that it should be and got a response of "thanks, we'll take that into consideration." So much for customer service these days.

 

exactly what I did, looks better in person

 

I'd rather just buy replacements than fight with them. Just haven't mustered the time and energy to do so.

 

Went to the Temecula Rod Run cruise night and saw this gem parked

 

That was the fad back in the day. Worst thing to do to a 4x4.

 

Really remember those days in SoCal. Big and small Trucks either went crazy big or crazy low. I will say they both looked good when set up correctly.

 

Added some Pelican cases to my topper rack. Only regret is that I noticed as I was drilling the holes that the Vault series of Pelican cases are “hecho en Mexico”

 

new windshield!

 

Those look awesome! He should definitely go public with those.

 

I want to do this repair on my daughters truck myself. Can you tell me what was included with each of these part #'s and are both required to complete the repair? Also although this fix looks pretty straight forward would you have a copy of, or a link to the official Toyota technician instructions for completing the repair?
TIA!

 

I have 4 wheel drive. Now what do I do ?

 

What brand are they? Hard to change? Wiring harness included? Actually how hard is it to get the speaker grille off ?

 

Gang, Mine are going in on Monday, Don't let them forget to fill the shocks with Nitro, those are still empty.
