    I got the same effect with plastidip.
    Definitely worth a try for someone who isn't sure if they will
    like the look.

    Thanks, it's actually plasti derped. I wasn't sure how I would like it so I didn't want to do anything permanent. Once it starts to peel I'm going to paint them, but just for curiosity's sake I want to see how long they last:D

    Those turned out nice. Did you cut the plasti dip with a razor blade before you peeled the masking tape?

    How many heat positions do those dial switches have? We had a couple Audi's that had that style and there were 5 heat settings. I was looking at doing heated seats in the Tacoma and the kit I was looking at had only low and high but it was also half the price as they ones you listed so I'm trying to decide which route I'm going to go which depends on the answer to that question.

    Finally ripped out my K&N Series 66 CAI and installed a TRD CAI. Yesterday I was sitting in traffic and the intake temperature on my Bullydog Monitor went up to 139 degrees. Both yesterday and today, the outside temperature was 90 degrees mid afternoon. After putting in the TRD CAI, the maximum temperature mu Bullydog would read was 109 degrees.

    love the ’12 Etaco23! and IMHO the DCLB is really long for a mid size truck. i got the DCSB. since dad has a tundra with 6’ bed and we have a big ATV trailer. wanted more cab room most the time.

    Just pulled the tape. I used many 1 inch pieces to obtain the proper
    curvature.

    The backspacing on the wheels made the spokes touch the calipers, so I decided to put on a set of 1.25" Spidertrax spacers. I love them!
