    The mats are the Tacoma all-weather rubber mats.

    I'm going to attempt to mate the stock TRD skid with the Pelfreybilt mid and tranny skids. Will need to build a small adapter skid.

    Nothing yet - just got it two days ago!
    Subscribed!

    Thanks for taking the lead on Pro mods.

    I got mine with 5 miles on it, and am watching you closely....

    I am particularly interested in how you made that blanking plate with the 3 aftermarket light toggle switches on it. Did your truck ship with that blanking plate? Mine has a little holder there, that might fit a bunch of change, half a pair of sunglasses...

    Many thanks.

    Congrats on the new truck! The blank plate for the 3 switches can be found here: http://www.shapeways.com/search?q=forty2skates&type=

    Agreed, that little cubby was rather useless.

    Big mods coming in 2017!

    Nice truck! My favorite color too.

    Where'd you get those clips for the passenger side floor mat? Seen some on eBay and Amazon.

    I bought the switch plate with three holes. Where can I find toggle switches to fit these?

    Great ride, always thought that the small mods make the most difference.

    Subbed!

    Still waiting for it
    Did your Relentless Fab High Lift mount not have the gaudy R laser engraved on them? I've been searching for an alternative between those and the allpros, I'm turned off by that branding.

    Yeah they do. I'm not a huge fan of branding either myself but the R's are mainly hidden by the Hi-Lift itself so not a huge deal to me.

    Check our RCI's mounts: http://www.rcimetalworks.com/Tacoma-High-lift-Mount-Taco-05-15-8.htm

    They don't have branding on them, but I preferred the double bolt design of the Relentless Fab ones.

    Update time!

    Some pictures from my time in NE Texas during Thanksgiving.

    IMG_0669.jpg
    IMG_0665.jpg
    IMG_0648.jpg
    IMG_0651.jpg
    IMG_0641.jpg

    I received and installed my Honda Garage mount, where I'll put my Garmin GPS during offroad trips.

    IMG_0689.jpg

    I also installed the Hondo Garage radio knobs. I had some leftover TRD letters so I found a place for them.

    IMG_0835.jpg

    Did some mountain biking.

    IMG_0869.jpg

    Finally grounded my CB antenna mount.

    IMG_0881.jpg

    Figured out a place for my patches since the velcro won't stick to the 3rd headliner material.

    IMG_0879.jpg

    Went BACK to NE Texas for Christmas.

    IMG_0935.jpg
    IMG_0933.jpg
    IMG_0988.jpg
    IMG_0984.jpg
    IMG_1005.jpg

    Did some skeet shooting while I was there.

    IMG_1008.jpg

    Finally had the TSB rev 1 done for the transmission. Drives a bit better now.

    IMG_1023.jpg

    Installed the "air intake accelerator" from the TRD intake.

    IMG_1042.jpg
    IMG_1044.jpg

    Installed OPT7 LED low beam H11 bulbs.

    IMG_1115.jpg
    IMG_1120.jpg
    IMG_1118.jpg

    Started installing my CaliRaised LED bar and brackets. I won't have the bar until next Monday, but everything else is ready.

    IMG_1125.jpg
    IMG_1128.jpg

    Installed the Import Equipment blackouts for the orange headlight reflectors.

    5CBF9774-5034-4117-BCB1-E72ECEA79766.jpg

    That's it for now. I'm working on new tires, sliders, full skid install and maybe roofrack within the next few months.

    Off to a great start! Very tasteful mods thus far. Would be pretty darn close to what I'd be doing if I had a new Pro. I almost pulled the trigger on one this year, but reluctantly decided to wait. My wife will finish up school next year, so having a second income again will help! Hopefully Toyota keeps the Pro around for a couple more years...
    :fingerscrossed:
