    Mike, I say if you're going to get new lights go LED. I'm pretty sure there's a how-to for 1st Gens.

    I paid 26$ for the 4 bulbs from superbrightleds.com, you can get any color you want and its decently easy to replace them. If you want a walkthrough on how to DIY i'd be happy to help, just PM me :p

    Yeah, that's the downside to those 01-04s... I LOVE where my switches are, but damn those square cup holders! :p
    He doesn't have to put them in the same spot... just something along the same lines would be easy enough.

    Looks great. Gotta love raptors.
    I was planning on a set for my 4runner but they're 5" backspace only in 17s and don't want added cost of wheel spacers :frusty:

    Welded in final supports to frame and then bedlinered my rear bumper. Also FINALLY completed all welding on my bed. I've been driving around with gaps still in the bed from the dovetail for a few months. :anonymous: lol With no more gaps, the bed feels just as strong as it was before I hacked it up! :woot: lol Very happy about that.

    I'm guessing 16x8s with 4.5" bs though right?
    Yeah I've got a white 98- one of the few with a 5speed in it. It's going to be my project rig.
