    Plati-Dip Badges & Removed a few, added D-rings in Bed, added recovery D-shackle, Added Front Recovery Hook, TRD Skid Plate-Rhinoed, added 2 mini tie downs, removed rear seat headrests.
    Took a cheap "Head Utility Light", cut the strap, took off the Pinch clip & drilled a hole, then removed the center screw & replaced with a longer one, ta-da! It clears no problems when closing & adjusts, 90 degree pivot, works for me...

    Finally found one for the 2012. LeBra. $105 w/shipping. I'm one of those guys that hates gravel chips, finally an outfit got one designed for the 2012. I wanted Colgan because I think they have the softest liner, but this LeBra seems ok and just in time for winter.

    Check build in sig.
    replaced the spark plugs and checked the diff's/transfer case to see if they needed to be done as well. Front and transfer were clean, rear was a tad darker but still good.

    Put the Taco OEM shift knob in my Subaru. Drilled out the counterbore section inside the knob to fit the Subaru's 10 mm stalk (Toyota is 8 mm). :)

    I rustoleum bedliner'd my bed bolts, no more rust in the winter, here's hoping. Not the perfect but works, sorry for the dark picture, not much light in the garage.
