Waag center brush/grill guard. Hose clamp tailgate mod. Turned off the seat belt chime. Added Ultra-Gauge. Trailer hitch. Softopper. Replaced sun visors with slide out style. Toyota bed extender. Had Firestone Destinations and now Michelin LTX AT2 in stock size. More mods to come; Fog lights, locking storage in bed, intermittent wipers. Now looking for Radio/HU upgrade. and maybe a lift way down the road.

    I'm going to guess eBay, the same place you can by "JDM" accessories for your Ford Focus, Chrysler 300, F series truck, and Chevy Colorado.

    1st time it rained yesterday on my brand new RotoPax plates and the bolts rusted.
    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1371863657.672077.jpg

    So I replaced them with 1" long Stainless bolts. The rusty ones were 3/4" long and a big PITA to install. They were too short to easily get the cams locked into the rail notches.

    I thought the bolt setup from Rotopax was a little sub par as well. The threading on the female pieces sucked!

    Yeah, the threads on one of my cams were not perpendicular. But it got the job done. Also the paint coating on the plates are pretty sorry. Those probably will rust next - but I know how to fix that...

    I thought about it. But I just stopped by a bolt & screw supplier on the way to work and spent $1. It was the path of least resistance. :rolleyes:
