    Fog light anytime mod. Took me 4 minutes and about $5 (didn't have wire and I wanted to get a female connector). I recommend this mod. Super easy and makes your truck look awesome. :D

    The plate is the factory TRD skid, but it has been painted with the bed liner stuff. littledvl sold it to me like this, and I really like how it looks, and the textured paint job.

    Put in a new cabin filter and reconnected the little glove box damper. Who ever did this the last time must have said the heck with it and left it hanging there.

    Just sayin.

    Since I don't have heated side mirrors, or rear defroster on my new baby, had to do something else. The winters here are F'n brutal and scraping off the ice in the morning is just.........not fun.

    Here's my latest mod and solution, hopefully, to those winter-time morning problems.

    Took mine to the dealer to have a clunking in the suspension checked out. They didn't find anything, but they changed the oil while it was there.

    Animal proofed my cabin air intake, nothing like the vent air smelling like a barn. Stupid squirrels/field mice. It does smell much nicer with the new cabin air filter I put in....
