    First remove inside black cover to mirror. Roll down window. Peel back door rubber seal next to inside mirror cover. Place a couple of layers (I used two layers)of product below. Reattach rubber seal and inside mirror cover and your done. Five minutes.

    So if I'm understanding you correctly, you're basically putting this stuff to press the door seal tighter onto the window so it doesn't rattle?

    If you google "Tacoma door panel removal" a nice lady in a bikini top on a hot summer day will walk you through it step by step. Thank me later. Mine had a bolt that fell out and was rattling around inside the door.

    Actually I mounted mine on the outside top of both mirrors. I found that it leave lots of visibility and still works great for the blind spot.

    You said you fixed your driver side window rattle? Could you help me out with some info on how you did this exactly? both of my front windows are rattling, sounds almost like something tapping the glass. PM'd you.

    The bed rail light kit was one of the first things I put on and I could not handle having my tonneau without it. The underhood lighting kit, however, is my most commented upon item. It really illuminates well.

    How many times did you have to watch this before actually following along how to remove the door cover?
