What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

The center caps on the wheels come in handy, if you stay with the TRDs. They are $58 a piece at the dealer.

 

I suppose so.

It was upside down very briefly during the crash, but it's probably okay. Only had a little over 35k on it.

 

Some battery maintenance that was due.

 

Sorry I missed it….but exactly what happened? If you don’t mind my asking.
Glad you’re okay.

 

Before

After

 

3 outta 4 is not bad.

 

Went ham on leds from Diode Dynamics. Changed the all the interior lights to cool white. And did the rear turn signals, brake lights, and reverse lights. Also swapped the side mirror signals with sequential smoked ones.

Tail lights, led on the left, stock on the right.


Reverse lights. Led on the left, stock on the right.


I have videos but the iPhone format isn’t jiving with the upload a file button, something about the wrong extension. Boo.

Oh forget I added wireless CarPlay too. It works great so far. Connects pretty quickly.

thanks I’m really happy with them but they are some work to clean but worth it

 

pics?

 

What’s that I see!!!! (No pun intended)

Finally got rid of the 19W fog assemblies and put on some 55W glass assemblies. I’m glad I took the plunge this year to not being afraid of taking stuff apart on the Taco. No looking back for sure! I’m going to wait to put on the 30+ H11’s. I want to remember the 2012 nights!!!

 

Last of the 2nd Gen light shows.

 

Wife (fathers day gift) bought my taco a matching color two wheels. 300 miles round trip

 

While parked outside her building waiting for my wife to get out from work in downtown Cle. A somewhat homeless looking gent walks up to my truck and says “ that ma-fer is the SAUCE”

I would have to agree…

 

She picked a nice one, looks like something I would have chosen.

 

I want to do exactly this on my Lunar rock. I have been nervous about the time to get it off, clean the paint, and put it back on. How long did this take you? My kids will want my attention back all too soon once I start something like this!

 

I have the same brand.

It does connect no problems...but I wouldn't say immediately.

Every now and again, Google maps doesn't display on the split screen (Map/Music) properly so I just unplug and reconnect and all is well.

Since my iPhone11 has charging issues with the plug on the phone, I use Apple Wireless charger & supplement it w/center console charger pad in my truck--not too long because it gets hot!

 

@Signatureinc those are some fantastic looking wheels! Very shiny too.

 

I did think of that... what brand did you use actual Velcro?
