What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I ended up ordering

$15 TOYOTA PUSH TYPE RETAINER

These from Amazon, hope they work out.

 

Haha no problem!

 

To me, it feels great. It's solid, doesn't feel cheap or anything.

 

Can I tap a rear USB port off of the USB port in the console? Classy's video taps off a lighter plug which my 2021 doesn't have.

 

I put 85k hard miles on it and it just felt like crap compared to friends newer Tacoma's. Found a nice feller on here with nearly new takeoffs in my budget.

 

Just pulled my tube at about 29k and there is gunk in it also. If you look in the tube you can see where it
comes from the engine recirculate tube. The engine could use a oil separator between the PVC or whatever
it called now and where it dumps into the intake tube.

 

Or the lighter plug in the console

 

I would not bother with the adapters more stuff to go wrong. Just clip the extra piece off. The clippers are available
from Amazon and work very well. Or just pull the little green thingie off. Then the lows and highs are the same.

 

I got one of those exactly and it's too fat to fit into the little hole where the retainer clip lodged

 

Thanks it feels great! And that was out at Caddo Lake…. there isnt crap around McKinney lol

 

These clips are intended to be put on the triangle trim piece first then snap them in together. This way you won't push them thru the hole (like I did).


I know they're linked above but here's the Toyota part # 67771-58010
Or I used These

 

Yeap, unfortunately, the Tint guy was all into removing door panels and reinstalling them, so I was out of the picture to do it right.

 

Put in 110 power into the front. Now don't have to power phones laptops in the bed
Recharges phones much faster than 12v.

 

FWIW - I lost one of the clips that holds the grill enclosure on. I went with this:

$8 Rexka 25pcs Fender Liner Bumper Cover Grille Retainer Clips Compatible with Toyota Lexus 52161-16010 52161-02020

bought a left side cubby switch panel on etsiy for my anytime camera switch. will use
the top blank for my Hi Low lights and the bottom rear for my redarc towing brakes
oops also my Co-pilot nav while moving upgrade

 

Is the plug secure in that location? Some have claimed the tabs don't hold it very well there and it needs a bit of glue on the back? Getting ready to install mine and thinking about putting it there or on the back of the center console.

 

So far have had no problems. hasn't popped out and is secure. But I guess a little glue wouldn't hurt.
I use it about once a week. Start small on the hole and make it so its a tight
fit for the switch.

 

I just used a straight scalpel and cut the extra tab. I was also looking into the adapters and thought the same thing.... Why add another point of failure

 

Thx! I’m glad I decided to do the throttle body too. I’ll try to do it more often…that rag was filthy.

 

Right??
How often do you clean yours? I’ll try to do mine every oil change (5k). I have one coming up soon. I been thinking of getting an oil catch can.
