    Oh there will be some mods all right
    You should be able to hit the little triangle next to thread tools and then click add poll. If it won't let you I can do it for you if you want, just give me the options that you want added to the poll

    Working on a lien delete for my title…..
    If I do one thing to my truck, it’s this….

    Seems like this would be a must have for anyone who uses their truck for truck stuff, or those who may suffer from OCD.

    Any estimate on when the coupon code will expire? Moving soon and want to make sure I don't stretch myself too thin, but I have been following this for a long time so I am very excited!

    Daaaaamn. I’m so jealous. Waiting on the manual version, if it’s gonna happen. I keep thinking it’s a good opportunity to really detail my whole truck, down in the seats, all those little crevices, tighten up the clazzios, clean up some wiring, add more wiring…. And finally, push all the little red, white and black clips back in place.

    Really interested in how the cabin noise level is affected replacing all that fabric with this liner.

    I am really close to pulling the trigger since my dog is a shedder and his fur is nearly impossible to get out of the carpet- this would be fantastic provided is doesn't reduce ride comfort.

    I'll keep you updated; currently my cabin volume is loud due to the lack of no back wall paneling (its mainly from that cabin vent).

    So, I couldn't wait and did the install at 5 on Friday. I did follow their instructions, which were provided online here.

    I think the noise level is nearly identical if not somewhat more quiet than the OEM carpet (also havent put the rear seat delete back in yet).

    My installation time might vary as I did not have rear seats (had a rear seat delete and only had to remove two bolts):
    • I believe it was around 3.5 hours (kept having to stop due to the heat)
    The following is what went wrong during my install (some them are no fault of
    armorlite):
    • I was too rough on the driver & passenger side kick panels and ended up breaking one of the clip retainers in my effort to remove them
    • I accidentally unplugged extra cables removing the driver seat
    • Some of the pictures & instructions didn't quite line up with my model year and trim (2021 DC AT TRD Sport)
    • I accidentally destroyed some of the threads on one of my driver seat bolts (tap & die set FTW)
    • Some bolts are covered near the back wall (the OEM carpet stopped before these bolts)
      • I'm not exactly sure what these bolts are for
    tacoma_floor_rear_bolts_covered.jpg
    • Accidentally cut too much insulation on the passenger side (behind the seat mounting bolts
    Tips for installing the floor:
    • Use a box cutter or a razor blade knife for cutting the insulation
    • Use a pair of scissors to cut the carpet that goes above the transmission tunnel
    tacoma_floor_driver_carpet_cut.jpg
    • Remove the plastic pieces attached to the OEM carpet in the door sills (its stapled in and makes removing the carpet easier)

    • Remove the bolts in the center console so you can lift up on it

    Seems like dynamat / noico / killmat and maybe some mass loaded vinyl might be worthwhile to swap for the OEM underlayment? Which could also avoid cutting, enabling a return to stock? Dumb idea?

    Just got mine done yesterday, no more dog hairs infiltrating every dang carpet fiber there is. Stoked on the new look and ease of clean up in the future.
