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

not today, but i washed my truck and waxed it, hopefully tonight i'll be pulling the camper shell.

 

Hey thanks a bunch for saving me the work of searching google for the how to's

 

Installed a 01-04 style rear view mirror w/ map lights into my 99'
"mmm like a glove"

 

-- did you try and hit it using a small hammer to see if it punches through?

 

No problem. Which are you planning on doing? If you are doing the slip joint mod there is a simpler way of removing the part you need to tack weld to minimize disassembly and maximize time/reassembly! In the link I provided skip to post #42 after you read the initial post!

 

i can bend the very end apart... If i could even find a frame i would go that route but seems impossible

Muchos gracious

 

Not very recent but haven't been here for a while. Two 8w3's, Custom box, Focals and Dynamat all around, 700/5 jl XD powering it all. Kenwood deck. and yes the carpet doesn't really match...

 

Lol why didn't you have the carpet match when you built the box, or had someone custom build the box? That's a sick set-up though. Did the dynamat noticeably help decrease the outside noise??

 

x2 on the dynamat. I've been back and forth with doing it or not. And I wish my subs took up that small of a space...

 

It's such a pain in the ass to remove the front & rear panels.
x2 on the sub taking up too much room, but you know what - room well spent!

 

yeah the extra cab panels look like a bitch

 

I had the box custom built for me. The dynmat is just around the speakers so outside noise is the same. And I went from broken stock speakers to this with the dynamat so I cant say if it made a difference with this set up. But In my sedan I had, dynamat made a huge difference with rattle and sound quality.

And on space I never really use the back seats because they are to small anyways but it's smaller then my old sub setup

 

Got my double d's today. Install tm if it stops raining. Woot!

 

Oh man that looks quite a bit larger than my 12" Diamond sub set-up

 

OTRATTW sent me more goodies so I can finish out my switches:

 

Since we are all posting unsafe speaker boxes here is mine (JL Audio 12W7 is a custom slot ported box) unmounted and stupid of me:

 

Is it hard to breathe in there? haha. I've heard two 13 inch W7's in a Excursion that my dads shop did, and that was ridiculous

 

HEY! ..........Mine was belted in

Hey Tom, where'd you get those switches (the foglight one in particular)? I've seen em around on guys rigs but never inquired where they came from. Or I guess better question since I'm quoting you is 'what does OTRATTW stand for?'

 

I miss it. But it was stupid of me. So I went from this:

to this:

to now these:

 

You switch systems like my brother haha. Except his gets bigger and better every time, his build in my sig. Did you build all those boxes yourself?
