What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Yes, get Mustang wheels and put something cheap on them.

 

leave the mustang install a 5.0 problem fixed!!

 

bought a cvt, should be buying adams bedrack as well.

dont be jelly.

 

Washed it for the first time in a few months, got 17.4 mpg on my last tank(!) and primed and painted some of the spots where the paint came off 2 weeks ago. Got a few others to hit, but should be a quick, easy job. Getting the window replaced sometime this week!

 

Anybody use these types of switches to run their lights or any other accessories???
Thinking about picking these up off ebay to run my LED's coming soon

 

I prefer to buy switches locally, cheap switches can burn out literally even melt. quantity usually means less quality

 

i use them, love the blue LED

 

Thanks. You mean like at RadioShack or somethin?

You got them off ebay or elsewhere? I know I want switch with a green led and one with a blue led.

 

I used these for my LED lights: http://www.colehersee.com/home/item/cat/17/58328-100BP/

Spendy, but rated at 25 amps. Not really a need for a relay when using LED lights with those switches. They're also bigger than those circle switches though. I just used the factory switch blanks and they fit perfect.

 

This is the only spot where I can fit switches (see pic). I originally wanted the OTRATTW switches but not enough space without it getting too crammed. It would probably also be easier to drill a hole rather than cut out a rectangle spot. Idk though. I don't even know how to do any electrical wiring so I'm hoping I can find someone nearby to help out.

 

How many are you going to run? Do you have a switch for the passenger side airbag?

 

Just 2 switches. And yea my passenger airbag is the "key slot" switch located right above the climate control next to the air vents.

 

j88logue has his mounted right were the fusepanel pull away thing is. legit spot if you ask me.

 

Darn. I was gonna say you could put them there lol. You are right on the circle switches being easier to install due to just drilling a hole. A toggle switch would be just as easy and you may be able to stack them closer than those circle ones. But if you're just doing two of them it should be fine.

And as far as the electrical work goes, it is not that hard at all. Once you do it once you'll think its cake. Just get someone familiar with it to help you out and you'll be set.

 

Thanks fellas! When I get around to it I will definitely be asking more questions then

 

Put 2 coats of primer on the Hidden Hitch after grinding a few rusty spots out. I'll have to wait until the weekend and better weather to put the gloss black on.

 

Not a damned thing....

 

Did a Bi-Xenon and clear corner install on my 04 TRD

 

Looking for a stock air box if anyone has one laying around that they would sell.

there's a difference between a good and bad switch for just simple led lights? ...
