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

when i did my under hood lighting I ran a split from that supply to the clovebox to keep all the led's on one add a circuit.

 

Well were not all .. taco engineers lol

 

Thanks all. I got power from the radio. Once again adding something that 30k should've bought me! Glove box lights!

 

well manbeast, someone has to be the nerd!

 

what switch did you use for this

 

Just got the "Happy Birthday" email from my dealer. My '15 Taco is a year old now.

Boy how time flies!

 

A momentary normally closed push button switch. Now I mounted it where one of the rubber stoppers was but behind the plastic panel is a gray plastic support. I had to notch out that support to allow the switch to push all the way back and not damage any wires.

 

How did you do the wiring?

Gottafly

 

Where did you get it from

 

Sorry I should've done a write up but I ran the constant power from the radio (white with blue tracer) and the ground to a 10mm Bolt behind the glove box. Here's a diagram for the switch wiring (stolen from Arkie-Marty) thanks!

 

Radio shack. Good luck finding one..the radio shack not the switch Hahaha. Make sure it's normally closed though. That allows it to only come on when the glove box is open and off when closed.

 

I feel like this should also go in the funny pictures thread, lol.

 

As long as the original artist gets "credit" and not me haha

 

Those look great! How do you like them? I might have to look into getting a set.

 

Got Duratracs put on a couple of days ago. Love them! Will post pics soon.

 

Added this. Because zombies.

 

First legit "write up"

 

Finally got to the car wash and knocked several pounds of glop and limestone gravel dust off the undercarriage, as well as the wheel wells. Gave the rest of the truck a quick rinse, nothing too detailed since we are supposed to get MORE snow/rain/ice over the next week or so. Yuck!
Also received my spray paint , primer and clearcoat from Automotive Touchup, so I can finish sanding and prepping the eyelids and get them painted when the weather warms up enough.
Then, awaiting the new bedside decals for eventual installation!

 

Got my color matched grill in from camelback toyota. Super excited opening it, just to find out there's a huge chip in it!
Ok, it's not THAT big, but very noticeable. Anyone ever heard of quality control!?
