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

Eye brows or eye lids.

eBay probably

 

rain-x is amazing stuff. I use it on all my boats and vehicles. Going 65 down the highway in a downpour and not having to use wipers is amazing.

 

It's awesome stuff. I haven't had a chance to drive with it, but just sitting in the driveway I was VERY impressed.

 

I hooked my truck up to a John Deere tractor/hay rake combo broke down on a FM rd taking the kids to shoot earlier today and pulled it up a hill and around the corner to get it out of the road. He was stalled out right in the middle of a hairpin S curve. Not sure of total weight but it was heavy though. Im guessing around 7500lbs or so.

 

The Rain-X windshield wiper fluid is good stuff as well. Just gotta spray and let the wipers spread it around and the rain instantly starts to bead up. I need to do the actuall treatment on all windows.

 

What mesh did you go with, I just picked up the m1 from him

 

I got some of that too, $3 for a gallon? Too hard to pass up on that one WalMart...

I'm not a fan of Rain-X.

In colder temps with wipers on high, it smears a haze across the windshield. In my experience at least.

Stoners Invisible Glass beads the drops up and they roll over good enough for me.

For side windows, topper, rear glass, etc... I like the Rain X though.

 

Do you apply it with paper towels? I find it works a hell of a lot better with paper towels than when I use a regular towel or microfiber. And applying two coats is always best.

 

Thanks for the reply, I found this guy : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tacoma-Eyel...Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a7ac94aae&vxp=mtr

but @ $100 a set thats too steep for me, i thought they were tint/vinyl. I like the look but not that much, I would rather put that money towards a set of projector head lights. I thought I could find some for like $20.

 

65$ shipping...

 

Finally got my TW sticker!

 

I haven't applied it in nearly 20 years.

Can't remember.

 

I think I pm'd for one around December and seeing your post just reminded me that I never got it.

 

Watch out! He'll delete your post

We just went over this....

 

Yeah I have been pm'ing him on and off for a year. A few of us just got lucky. We were talking about not receiving them a few pages back in here and Bob saw and sent us some. All I can say is keep at it! Haha

 

he is serious. Different states have different laws.

Wy you don't need them.

others do. Check with your own state laws but i believe Wa does require them. You can sneak by with the fronts gone usually.

 

Sold my '02 PreRunner today to a guy. He was buying it for his soon-to-be 16 year old son.

No I am officially on the hunt for a '01-'04 Double Cab 4x4! Though I would consider an '05 and up.

 

Anyone have any experience with matte clear in an aerosol can? I just finished my grill and don't want to leave bare paint again but don't want it glossy either. I'm going to pick some up tomorrow and if it turns out well I'm going to redo my wheels with it too since they are bare paint and aren't cleaning up as well as they used to.. I just wanted opinions out of curiosity.
