What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Nice! the heat will actually help the adhesives to stick much better. As long as the surface is clean.
I always warm up any double sided adhesive tape before install…

 

The ugly chrome was cleaned with liberal amounts of alcohol which I let dry before applying the overlay. Doesn't take long for the alcohol to evaporate especially since we have a nice breeze today. 84 and sunny

 

Installed morimoto clear lens sequential lights. Easiest 10 minute mod yet

 

There is probably a hairline crack somewhere. Take the headlight out, put it in a warm, dry place until all of the moisture is gone, and carefully inspect the headlamp; you can repair the crack with a two-part epoxy. If the crack is on the lens, use something like 3M DP-100 and apply as little as needed. Then, wet sand the epoxy down until it's almost level with the lens and finish it off with polish. If it's cold and/or wet, allow some extra time for the epoxy to set up and fully cure. If you're not comfortable doing it yourself, a local body shop might be willing to do it for you.

 

Took advantage of Black Friday/cyber Monday and ordered bilstein 6112/5160’s and 17x8.5 method NV bronze. Now the wait game.

 

Today we got dirty, got clean and then turned my tailgate into a diaper changing table. Woohoo

 

Drove 75 miles across the island to ditch my OVtune that I’ve been rocking for like, 5 years. It was the beta 4.88 91 pump tune
Got the Overland Tailor Tuning medium lite sport. Holy guacamole! It FINALLY drives how a vehicle should! I didn’t even touch s4 for the mountain climb back home like how I’d have to the previous 5 years. Push the pedal and it’ll hold it in the right gear, and power band. i used to average 18mpg on the same trip, now I’m getting 20mpg (I also have 35s and 4.88s).
150 mile round trip was worth it!

 

RCI rock sliders done today , started raining as we finished up.

Now , what's next!

 

Did the Christmas mod

 

Just went out for a drive today.

 

Nice!! I'm next! Ordered my RCI sliders last week!

 

Installed some new Form headlights

 

way to get in the Xmas spirit. I will be a escort vehicle in a local XMAS parade for the high school this Saturday, looking for decoration ideas before the kids get too crazy. Are you running the lights off the bed outlet?

 

Installed the Anytime Front/Rear Camera, ditched the Qi button and moved the Seat Heater Switch over there. Also installed the Overland Equipped Aux Power Kit and stopped for a whiz at Jomax on the way to the airport.

 

That is probably the best looking mounting set up I’ve seen. Very cool. I really like the relocation of the small relay block as well. I don’t know much about AuxBeam (I did some reading on Switchpros at one point, but it wasn’t for me), but that is a great looking bracket. Just based on that, I would give AuxBeam a good look if I was going to do one of the switch panels.

 

Finished up a cargo/dog platform for the back seat.

The fit is great, and the tabs on the outside edges fit into the belt buckle indents to help prevent the platform moving forward/back.



Dog tax:

 

You should be good.

 

Installed the oem power tailgate lock! Doing it myself sure beats a few hundred bucks at the dealer!

 

Looks great; I guess those are the 5%. I'm buying a set tomorrow! I just need to decide if I want the top plates or not (I'm leaning towards not). Since I can pick up 'locally' I may have them install since I don't have ramps.

 

One of my favorite mods so far. I’m still surprised this isn’t installed from the factory.
