    Stock as of now
    So I got 5100's installed all the way around on my 2012 dclb with the fronts set at 1.75" and it looks great, but heres my frustration..We were able to do the fronts without loosening the control arms, we used a big ass pry bar haha I took it back to the shop where we did the work to get it aligned and the alignment tech said it was in spec. Is this possible? To the eye it looks like the alignment is off, and a couple other people noticed too.. Just wondering if this is possible since we didn't loosen the control arms, or do I need to find a better alignment guy? Thanks I'll get pics up soon

    Picked up my 2012 TRS Sport Upgrade today... I did find out that the weathertech digital mats only fit in the rear. So they won't have to do any changes for those, for all the weathertech fans out there. The fronts need to be redesigned to accept the new locking system. Once that happens I will have a set of front digital mats for sale at a great price.

    Tomorrow, I am going to see if the weathertech rain guards will fit from a 2010 to the 2012.

    Really? I heard they had plenty left. They were only going to make 40,000 sets but the sales were pretty lackluster and they had plenty left. At least that is what I heard. We'll see...

    The weathertech rain guards fit perfectly on the 2012, from the 2010 model. AND weathertech is even going to send out some more 3M tape to reapply to the rears for free, now that is GREAT customer service.

    Thanks for showing me what those rims will look like on a MGM. Looks great aside from what looks like a quasi HDR photo.

    40k sets? Wow, I heard something along the lines of 20k at most.. The DMV lady at the dealership told me they were sold out.

    I am now part of the evil empire.... I just bought my first Yota.

    2012 Tacoma double cab TRD Sport in white. Brought it home, shaved off all the badges and now I'm playing with the entune system.

    Saturday I'll pull out the chrome toyota grille insert and paint it black and add the hose clamp theft deterent to the tailgate. Some nice mods that cost almost nothing. Thanks for posting all the great how-to's and mods in this forum. It has been a big help to a noob yota owner.

    That is all...
