What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I put the kicker tweeters in today and I have to say, the OEMs I pulled out we're world's nicer than the ones that were in my 2008 Tundra.

I usually don't prescribe to forum hype, but the Kicker drop ins do make a difference. They are brighter & clearer. I'm pretty happy with them.

Like others have said, now it really highlights how bad the other speakers are, and I can't wait to roll on those.

 

I have the speakers I want saved in my cart at Crutchfield just wait for the trigger to be pulled, but I need to do the tweeter upgrade first.

 

I've done a few things the past couple weeks:
1. Vinyl inserts from @rrentrop for the door sill protectors:

2. Tail gate theft prevention lock from @scleaf . It's good to have because I often forget to lock with my key.


3. BlackVue DR750S-2CH dash cam. Thanks to @gpb and @bigtotoro for the posts they created on their dash cam installs which gave me all the info I needed to do mine

 

Black over badges and tonneau cover installed, changes the look in a hurry.



Going for weather mats and seat covers next. As for the OEM 18 weather mats dealer quoted $150, looks like another dealer has them on Amazon for $125. What did you guys pay for them?

 

I'm digging the tailgate lock. Definitely one of the first things I'm gonna get. Not being a truck guy I didn't realize tailgate theft was a big thing.

 

Tested JT Brooks Pro tire deflators and worked great!

Check the review video

 

I feel you. Leasing mine so it's gonna be tough coming from a long travel FJ to keeping it stock.

 

I placed my Crutchfield order today to all new door speakers, Kicker CS series. Ordered the tweets on Ebay and picking up some sound deadening mat locally this week. Next weekend my 2017 will sound much better! Also ordered LED headlights and fog lights on Ebay. Next weekend is going to be good!

You can modify a lease, just put it back to stock like a part out if you decide to return it.

My friends all do that so they can reduce monthly payment to spend more on mods.

 

What kit did you use? Can you dim the lights with the app?

 

Oh shoot your talking like REAL long term seat covers... how was the install?

 

Thanks, man.



And so it begins again this afternoon.............
