What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Upgraded the stock headlights on my blue Tacoma to the OEM TRD Pro headlights. Made the same upgrade to my 21 white Taco about a year ago.
Washed up both trucks using Turtle Wax hybrid solutions ceramic wax spray. Really easy to apply and works really well.

 

Nice!

 

Damn those grey TRD wheels pop! Sharp looking rigs

 

it wont look good very long

 

Started swapping my new to me motor in this afternoon, and got it running and driving this evening.

 

This was very helpful. Thank you!

 

I have only had it on for a day so far but the quality and functionality seem good.

 

The front view shows the lower grill light bar - it is a combi pattern and does a great job of stretching the headlights and lighting the berm, but it is too bright to run with anybody traveling in the opposite direction! The scoop light throws more than I thought it would, it is more of a “look at me” option, works great when picking up grandkids after school. The front camera is right under the grill badge, nothing too exciting, but I do use it often when parking. There are smoked turn signals on the mirrors, also not too exciting. The interior shot shows the footwell lights (dome & map are also red), and the light bar switches (Left two), the front camera switch is in the Left switch panel. I sold the Nova SS, so the shift knob moved to the Tacoma.

 

Beaching it up today

 

What is the ac drain mod

 

It looks “totally awesome” bro

 

Keep an eye on the wall, the rain water will run down the roof of the shed into your house wall. maybe basement if you have one. I bought out that the roof pitches away from the house. i know they prob didnt have that style in the size you wanted but just a precaution. Id add a lil gutter on your shed lol

 

This makes me wonder what the holes in the stock skid are for, and the access panel in my RCI engine skid. Aren't those for oil changes without removing the skid? I'm still under 8k miles so I haven't been through that yet.

 

Target acquired! I chose to stagger them vertically so I could get a better spread.
Thanks, TW, for occupying my Saturday morning. . .

 

RCI engine skid has 1 always-open hole in the back for the oil-pan-drain. There is a removable panel to access the oil-filter in the front but is covered most of the time to protect the engine from rocks/splashes.

 

Welcome to TW, and I see you are joining the herd of front-range Colorado Tacoma folks.

You'll be deleting chrome for a while if you become too obsessed with it . I did the basics in the first couple days of ownership and now I'm doing small things bit by bit.

 

How many kits for a Taco? I've always done Zaino on vehicles, and it works pretty good. AK though fills those gaps and is sacrificial, that may be a better choice. I got Luna in February and haven't done a full clay/polish yet, but then at 1900 miles I got hit and still haven't agreed with insurance on the repair to the front bumper. I've ben procrastinating, but since I got my carport space back, I should get this done.

 

Stock AC condensate tube drips directly on the frame and over time can cause rust. Attached a piece of heater hose to the drainage tube with a hose clamp and rerouted the drainage past the frame and down to the ground. There's a sticky post about it around here somewhere.

 

Removed sway bar to see how the truck will ride this week.
Had my suspension system upgraded to Ironman FCP Stage 2 for about 4k miles. It's time for some comparison test.

 

What are these?
