What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

If you still have the stock wipers refills can be bought for 8 bucks each.

 

On a serious note regarding wipers… the PIAA silicone wipers are as good If not better than Toyota OEM.

 

Are these available at auto parts stores where they sell PIAA blades normally, or did you have to order the silicone ones on line?

 

It’s probably got something to do with their not being located anywhere near Lower Alabama - novelty of sorts. Their packaging is “inspirational”….

 

I get mine from Amazon.

 

Hmmmm, didn’t realize the refills had to bed in . . .

 

I drove mine for the first time just now. Picked it up on the 1st but couldn’t get the hand throttle installed ‘till today. It drives as nice as I hoped it would. It was a little nerve racking buying a new truck without being able to test drive it.

 

black tape will make that disappear…..

 

Too late!

 

Is there enough material in rotors these days for them to be resurfaced?

 

More black tape and the "service engine soon" light vanishes ...

 

They must be out, as I searched for PIAA silicone wipers, and none matched up for the Taco.

 

Actually, from pricing similar super silicone wipers on Amazon, they seem to be nearly as cheap on the PIAA site itself. Might try that....

 

Looks like for a 2020 you need a 20” for the passenger side and 22” for driver side. Pretty sure they are universal fit and come with all the attachments necessary. Unless the Tacoma has something unique I’m not aware of.
Keep in mind I’m only a few days into being a Tacoma owner but have owned several Toyotas.

 

Yep, pretty much exactly what I found on the PIAA site. They had them on sale for $25 and $22 respectively, so I just bit the bullet and paid the $8 for shipping. Thanks for the heads up!
Been looking for some wipers for an upcoming longer winter trip to Estes Park, and wanted something that would continue to function well in the ice and cold.

 

It's always the first thing on the inspection list since 2009.

 

You bet.

this link kinda confirms you will be good. Amazon does say they won’t fit but I’m positive they will. Nothing special about wipers. But living in Seattle I’ve learned those cheap blades are worthless and OEM are good but overpriced.

 

Tailgate lock installed!

 

Winter Time Here in Alaska, that means free time to install stuff on the truck.

Finally getting to install a LED Bar that I ordered back in July.

 

Thanks!
