Cool

 

woohoo!

Got my dual battery setup finally done!

of the 4 hours working on it today, I spent most of the time making it pretty

 

...probably a good time for a beer.

wired



checking status



linked up and charging

 

Yeah, sorry....Active duty "non residents" only pay $20.50 per vehicle to register for a year. We have 3 cars and bike so $82 is the annual bill. I definitely feel for residents....HI registration fees are pretty ridiculous considering the condition of the roads and the traffic congestion.

 

Looks great Mike!

Damn, I think I'm at $383 or so!

 

I'm a tx resident and my wife is hawaii resident. Bit since she's active duty also they only charge her $68 for her civic. But my truck was 20.50 and my bike was 12.

 

Loks good

 

The pre-wiring helped a lot, and you cut the blue wire too short, it was supposed to go to the aux battery, so I had to extend it

when you getting yours? I still got a lot of cable sleeving left over

The cable crimps I got just barely worked, i'll probably have to pick up smaller bolts to use them on the new battery terminals.

 

Looks pretty mean Mike. That probably falls under the cool but never use category for me but doesn't mean it's hasn't made its way on to the list.

 

with all that extra weight, i'll definitely need to adjust my front setup

 

got lucky today and scored a URD MAF Cal cheap from an old friend with an X-Runner.

 

My bike may have only been $12 too...I forget (and I'm too lazy to go pull the registration and look). We're both FL residents although we've owned here for several years. Lived in 8 different states while in the Navy and HI is absolutely the highest when it comes to vehicle registration....even higher than NY!

 

Im happy paying $72.50 for the Taco. I remember paying $200 plus when I had a Corolla.

 

Anyone know if the 2013 tacoma's maintainance light goes on if its time to change oil? Mines is on, and its almost time for my second oil change. Almost at 10000 miles.

 

Got my support brackets all painted up. Now need to find some hardware for it and maybe install it this weekend.

 

yeah it goes on. my maintenance light went on the first time when I almost hit 5,000 miles

 

something came in the mail

 

^^^ Oh snap!

 

The maintenance light comes on as determined by the dealership doing your maintenance. The sticker on the top of your windshield (driver side) probably says next maintenance at 10,000 miles or something like that. I think it comes on a couple hundred miles before reaching whatever the sticker says.
