What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Installed the Rearview Mirror bracket from "ImMrYo"
Now waiting for my friend to get off work so i can borrow his jack and rotate my tires

 

got some more work done on the rock camera project. got one working on the front bumper hoop, and welded on a tree guard for it.





driving angle



wheeling angle

 

Checked for the cause of a metal clanging sound coming from the back end and found this:



So I guess I'll be posting soon that I upgraded my suspension and re-sealed the rubber coating on my brake line...

 

I have to do mine soon.

 

Installed a Flyzeye Designs light, got the wired model.

 

I did the cup holders yesterday, Couldn't find orange to go with the gauges, climate control, buttons, stereo etc... But found red. Then decided today that I need more red lighting accents so I went back to radioshack and only found 1 red LED (was/am going to do the rear cup holders and door pockets too), Went to another radioshack and they had none.

So for now I just added the shifter pocket LED.

 

Pretty easy. Less than an hour for both.

 

Retrofit looks good. Haven't got the nerve up to tackle this or the BHLM yet.

 

Designed Pillar grab handle covers

 

Will be available very soon

 

is this California legal???

 

No. If you go to get it smogged with it on they'll fail you right away. Everyone just keeps their stock intakes and swaps them out before smog checks. Easy as hell to do

 

yup thats what i figured. looks like the install is easier than the k&n filter..? which makes swapping it easier

 

Was a breeze compared to the k&n. It comes off and goes on in one piece if you keep everything intact.

 

I did a 2012 f150 with h1s about two weeks ago and am currently working on another set for a friend of mine. They are the only two retrofits I've eve done and they are both h1s so I'm not real educated on the difference in the actual projectors other than the fxr is more difficult to install but put out more light and are more expensive. I'd like to see them side by side for a comparison

 

Picked up my truck today from having the RCD lift installed with 295/70r17.

 

^^^ JT that lift rocks bro!!! Tires n wheels look awesome!!!

 

New wheels and tires, vent visors, wade sure-fit mats, and tinted the roll-ups.

Can someone point me in the direction of a thread that shows the process on blacking out the badges?

There's info somewhere in here. But I found it easy to just tape off where the badges are before you remove them (so you'll know where to stick them back on), use a hair dryer to heat up the adhesive and fishing line to remove them. Once they're off just sand, prime, and paint then use 3m double sided adhesive to stick them back on. Clean the surface off before putting them back on.

 

Thanks Fiend. I've looked into the plastidip thing, but that seems like a cheezy way to do it. Sanding/painting sounds better.
