    Where the lights would be installed if done at the factory. The verticals on each side of the tailgate facing forward. When you pull the plastic filler, a break out in the harness with a capped plug is right there. At least it was on mine. Not sure what model year they started leaving access and having the plug there whether it got the option or not.

    I ended up painting my fender flare after some girl that was texting while driving ran into the side of my truck and scuffed up the fender flare. It didn’t do anything to my truck other than that. Her car, unfortunately had her painted flare ripped off the side of her car and it was flapping in the wind as she fled the scene.

    On a sidenote, the SEM Trim black trim paint is a perfect color match

    New shocks look great. But wow. Just a couple of winters with salt? They must use nuclear salt there. For a 2020 it looks 6+ years old on your frame already. Have you ever thought about rust prevention on your frame?

    Oh there will be some mods all right
    It's funny, my coworker thought the same thing. It does indeed look like rust in the picture but it actually is a dirt and road grime layer on top of a rust prevention coating. I'm not sure whether the previous owner put on fluid film or something else but I can scrape off the "rust" with my fingernail and it's black paint underneath. All of that being said we do use nuclear salt here and an unprotected Tacoma will become rusty far quicker than one would imagine.

    Ah lol... makes sense now. I know rust issues are a known issue on these trucks to some degree but just 2 years old... Lol.. Thanks for the clarification.

    Nope! Definitely not. Should have recognized that from the plug side of the trim I guess? Lol

    Oh yeah!

    It does get relatively hot.

    I guess my driving doesn't have too many/if any bumps because I haven't had that problem.

    There is a certain position I place the phone and the light turns on showing charge.

    It's not really my "goto" charger...use it when I pretty much don't have other options. lol

    It’s Meguiars aerosol. I typically use Stoner trim shine but the Meguiars is good also

    Aren't they only held on by a few bolts? Why didn't you just take it off? ;)

    I believe the plates and wiring wasn’t an option until 2020.

    It depends on your trim whether you get them or not. Probably cheaper to add them yourself than moving up to a higher trim.
