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

I joined the forums and installed LED map light bulbs.

 

Now I feel foolish. Looks good so far.

 

All I need is bumper and headlight fillers but I think I'm getting a tube bumper. You'll love doing the conversion. It almost feels like I got a new truck.

They at Nfab light brackets. They came with the truck when I purchased it.

No worries, thanks man.

 

Worked more on the auxiliary fuseblock wiring - got the front light bar wiring sorted out.

Push down on the narrow side between the hinges and the long opposite side comes up enough to get a finger underneath to remove it. Its not the most convenient, but its not too bad. I was going to do a finger hole or some kind of handle, but that wouldnt look OEM.

Ill get a video of it in action tomorrow.

 

what film do people recommend for covering led's to change the color? Looking for a good orange to cover some light's I'll be getting

 

Only took me over two years but I finily added a Fire Extigusher on a DRAKE quick relese mount

 

I know Ross put some Green crap on his... Maybe he'll check this soon and offer his 2 cents. C'mon you Oregon Raper... I mean RAPR, offer some thoughts

 

You should go to the dealer and try to get the headlight TSB done.

The film is for the look with the lights off. Don't know if LEDs differ from halogens in this behavior, but if you want color with the lights on, get colored lamps.

I put the yellow film on my fogs, but they turned almost white with the lights on. So I bought the yellow fog lamps and now it has the look I want on and off.

 

I haven't found anyone that makes orange 4x4 leds though.

 

Even though CariD isn't the best place to get leds, thats where I got mine and I am very pleased with them. Just find out what type of bulb goes in the running lights and order amber ones

 

I'm not looking for bulbs. I'm getting a new bumper and am going to wire some LED 4 inch square lights into my fog light switch, but I want them to be orange. But I haven't found anyone that makes an orange 4x4 light so I figure i'll have to cover it with orange film instead.

 

Looks good

 

Thanks Man

 

Still love your bedrack and cage!

 

Go to the dealer man. My headlights looked identical to that shit. I have brand new lights now as of a month or so ago. http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/li...ns-recall-petition-urgent-12.html#post9554776

 

I would measure the size you need and contact Lamin-x customer service. They will probably be able to cut them in the exact size you need.

 

Talk to my boy Neil. Look at his fogs. He has LaminX for ya...here's his thread:

Thanks guys. I figured you'd be on here sooner or later and help me out. Still wish I was driving back to Oregon for Christmas instead of flying. I'll check out that thread and possibly contact lamin x if I need.

 

Looks awesome!
