    :wave:

    If your over 6ft I'd message ImMrYo he has a bracket that raises the rear view mirror up to the headliner when installed. Also check out the BHLM mod if you have chrome headlights and don't like the look. Also try searching for grills, these are easy to mod on this truck and most look really crappy from factory.

    Be warned this site will make you want to spent lots of money.

    Wow what a great response guys thanks...im from charlotte..what parts are you from ajohnson? The grill options are freaking awesome..and because im pretty sure id mess it up...im looking at some on ebay..lights too! No pictures just yet the wheels and tires are some after market garbage...looks like previous owner stole them from a taurus or something..kind of embarrassing and since im far from rich it will be a little bit before buying new ones :eek:

    Welcome Aboard! The SR5 is a great package. I would drive the truck a bit, and then work through getting some new goodies later on.

    :wave: from Cary. I bought my SR5 as a clean slate to build how I wanted it. DIY if you are up for that and save yourself tons of money. There are plenty of knowledgeable people on here and even more that will work for cheap/drinks/pizza. Get your hands on a copy of the FSM!

    so sandman are you saying you took an SR5 and DIY'd the TRD options...or are you just saying in general DIY is the way to go with everything(thats what I planned on doing) hey atleast it has power windows and locks...no keyless entry though lol..Looks like all I need is the Module that goes behind the glove box..so are you a "Relocated Yankee"? lol thats what I was told Cary is ...confused and relocated yankees
