What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Whatever you are thinking… I’m sure if you produced it I might end up with one.

 

2 tacos?

 

It’s cheap enough so I just went through the dealer. It was $50 to buy it directly (plus they said it wasn’t for the 3rd gen) or $27 to order it online and pick it up at the same parts counter. Whatever. Super easy to add on, and yes it fits perfectly. I didn’t get or think I needed the end caps.

 

Nice and helpful.

 

my wife was hit twice and they ran....scum with paper tags

another time she was hit by a pos that ran a red light and within 2 weeks the 3 scaggs that were in that car (including a 16 yo girl) had sent letters to our ins. co suing for money. but their ins. was not paid up to date and theirs was totaled prob, haha on them

world getting out of control

Black '20 SR 4x4 4cyl is mine
Silver '20 SR SX 4x4 V6 is my sons

Been plenty of Tacos parked here for a long time.

 

Had the OEM bumper and spare off so was a good time to chop the exhaust.
Got the bumber reinstalled and am really loving the clean look of the RCI bumper minus the exhaust hanging out under the passenger quarter panel.
0 harmonics, resonances, droning, nor any excess noise at all.

 

I like how the rci looks, it matches the body lines really well.

 

I got mine from whatever OEM online parts dealer was cheapest $60. I also bought the end caps which were way overpriced $20.

I got these shortly after installing the header rail.

 

I started the project after seeing a ClassysTaco video. Now waiting on a replacement Blue sea systems USB plug. The one I received today is missing the cap and the USB ports were rusted out. Some straight lasagna.

 

Our 2020 doesn't have the JBL stereo. If yours does it'll have the logo on the front of the stereo.

The DS18s are a direct replacement for the tweeters on the left and right side of the dash. I believe they can be used with the JBL systems too, but someone else will need to confirm. The DS18s are plug-and-play using the same connectors. Lots of YouTube videos showing how to remove the originals and replace them with the new tweeters. Very easy upgrade. If that was the only thing I was going to do, it would still be worth it since the OE tweeters are real light-weights.

Others can chime in with respect to replacing the door speakers, adding a sub-woofer, sound deadening and such. Lots of threads on that too.

Hope that helps!

 

Took the wife and kids to the drive in tonight. For reference a futon mattress fits perfectly in a long bed Tacoma. Good times

 

Went on an overnight trip with 5 friends in their tacos and ended up taking a rock to my blinker, looks like I’ll have to upgrade!

 

What is this "drive in" that you refer to?

 

Bummer. But a good excuse to "upgrade". Easy DIY replacement. You can spend a lot or a little. I went with these High Flying mirror sequential turn signals (smoke) in the in-between price range:

$45 HIGH FLYING Car Accessories LED Side Mirrors, Sequential Dynamic Turn Signal Lights Indicator, Pair for Toyota Tacoma 2016-2023, RAV4 2019-2025, Highlander 2020-2025, Set of 2, Smoked Black

Okay, I'm ready...

Hahaha, yeah, they are far and few between these days, but luckily we have one where I live that still gets pretty busy on the weekends. I love that a few still exists so that I can show my kids what it was like when I was growing up at their age.

 

I like those…I haven’t even considered changing them in the past because they weren’t broke…now I have the reason to give to the better half on why I need to spend the cash! Thanks for the suggestion

 

Whoa! Just don't be mentioning my name!

 

Well, how cool is that?! But it looks like someone took all of the requisite giant tinny sounding metal speakers! Dang kids!
