What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks great! What did you switch your high and low beam bulbs to?

 

Thank you. 55 watt LED bulbs

 

Not sure just yet but I may work on it this weekend. If I do, I will post pictures and details here.

 

looks good.
on a side note i'm pretty sure there really isn't any big upgrade for the h9 high beam bulb.. aside from going hid.

i was looking at getting these but some ppl say the oem are just as good.

would like to know anyone else's opinion on best high beam option to match some 5500-6000k hid low beams

 

Light bar is just a cheap 32" 180 watt Amazon bar, brackets are Caliraised, easy install
Headlight high/low and fogs are 55 watt LED
I made a harness using an OEM 2015 dash switch, I didn't use the OEM relay.

 

How do the LEDs work in the high beams? I put them in my projectors and fogs they are ok in the projectors not as bright as I had hoped. They were horrible in the fogs they just threw light everywhere, so I got the rigid dot approved fogs which are amazing. Id like to get better brights and eventully find something better for the projectors.

 

I'm happy with the light output over all. The LED bulbs in the fogs do scatter but really I never use them anyway. With everything on at once it really doesn't matter, it's stupid bright lol

 

Has anyone been able to get patches to stick to the headliner?

 

How do you like the Toytec Boss? Any complaints?

 

No complaints at all. I put them on the day after I got my truck so I can't really compare but I like the way they ride.

 

Oh yeah, you just pull down on the corners of that panel and it just comes right out and the garage door opener is just sitting on top of it.

 

I have orange inlays on my seats and orange stitching. Just wondering if the stitching and color of that TRD Pro shift knob would Clash or look okay. Actually looks kind of orange colored in the picture but that just might be the lighting.

 

Install will be tomorrow I paid $359 shipped from Autoanything....

 

You have to kind of "mash" it into the headliner. Moving it back and forth, side to side. And then she'll stay put. Windows down sunroof open no problems. But if some jack ass co-piolt reaches up and monkeys with it it'll come back off.

 

Bed mat installed, tailgate letters put on, and applied the door sill protectors. Bought all from Amazon. Good products.

 

Let us know how it goes. Did you have a bed mat? Just wondering if the floor rug is padded enough to fill in the ripples of the floor or if a mat would be better under there to keep it more smooth.

 

Thanks @stealthmode I posted pics on my thread " Bushwacker Fenders Scratching My Paint" on what I did to remedy. So far so good.


Basically, put double sided tape on thin area on rubber trim.

If I go the 3m route I assume I would cut into sections like I did above with double sided tape to minimize waste?

So far this is holding up well. May need to redo one fender as the DS tape rolled up a little when I removed red backing. Wish Bushwacker would design to add a DS tape to their install.

UPDATE: I would NOT use DS tape. Look at https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/bushwacker-fenders-scratching-my-paint.452639/

 

Kicked off the weekend with my new Blue Ridge Overland Gear visor organizer

 

Thanks! I'm running out of real estate
