    Has anyone installed an aux cable or a good system for connecting an Ipod to your stock dash unit? I assume since there is no AUX option that it would be more complicated. ANy Suggestions?

    This would be the DIY method.

    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/au...iy-aux-input-2005-2008-factory-head-unit.html

    Grom Audio/ USAA Spec: these just plug into the back of your stock headunit and you route the AUX cord to where it comfortably reaches your ipod. This is what I reccomend.

    So I went to add D rings in the front of the bed and I found out that the gas tank has to be dropped in order to get the driver side one mounted. Wasnt too happy. You would think Toyota would realize that only having them in the back isnt enough.

    Not if you simply remove the bed bolt and use that as an attachment point. That's the easiest way to go and I wouldn't recommend using the drain holes like I've seen others do. Drain holes are in your bed for a reason.

    Why do you keep doing that on all of your posts? I already told you in another thread where you did this but when you click 'Quote' don't type ANYTHING until after the text that's already there. You keep typing your replies in the HTML code which makes your posts unreadable because it blends your post with the person you quoted and makes it so others don't know who said what. Don't type anything until after the last [/QUOTE] tag that you see. You keep replacing the 'QUOTE' in the 2nd to last [/QUOTE] with your own text between the brackets and I don't know why.
