What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

LOVE those steelies.

 

Gave it's keys, the rav4 keys, the xb keys and even the p5 keys a place to hang out together thanks to cool item from fs section here.....



Then modded it with some red and white cardstock...

~$35 on Amazon, well worth the cost. Now if I could just figure out why the alignment on my tailgate seems a little off and I have to "lightly slam" it shut each time..

 

How hard was the lower center swap, where did you get the 2015 console?

 

It was medium difficult. Have to take most of the dash apart

 

Anyone know where this is supposed to be attached?

 

I really want to do this. I hate that I have to duck down to see the plugs and buttons on my 2010.

 

Started my early winter prep.

Changed the Air Filter so i don't have to when its 5 deg.

Welcome @Tomkat51 & @NCHACON1984 !

X2 on the Steelies & don't 'cheap out' on lighting or anything else for that matter.

 

Oh, and, can anyone give me a recommendation on a rivet-nut tool & kit? There are several on Amazon.
Thanx in advance.

 

Like @fatfurious2 said, medium. Its just like a little time consuming. You have to remove shifter console, AC unit, pull vents around radio out, remove radio and lower pocket by steering wheel etc. It sounds like alot of tearing apart but its probably like 6-8 screws and everything else pops out.

Also added a Scosche wireless charger and a rear elocker switch for a future mod.

 

Most likely will go with Diode Dynamics and will install 2.5 frontend and bumper at the same time.

 

I thought guys were having problems with those on the tailgate, cables kept getting in the way ?

 

I heard the same and also heard the tailgate still goes down fairly quick from strut not being strong enough.

 

Maybe CV axles? Could be the joint in the steering shaft getting old. Really depends on if you can feel the shake elsewhere too

 

Thank you sir! I will check there

Mine has been hanging like that forever and I couldn’t find out where to stuff it so I just put it up in the frame crossmember. Never rethought it until now. Good to know lol

 

Standard halogens aren't going to come near proper projector setup with HIDs, especially in terms of distance and cutoff. Also, running HIDs in any reflector is just going to blind the hell out of oncoming traffic. Your fogs will be throwing light everywhere and actually defeats the purpose of a proper fog light
