What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Ah I see. They're fixed.

Power folding mirrors are something I'd like to add one day. Totally pointless in my application, but cool to say the least.

 

that'd be a challenge. i dont believe any toyota with the tacos mirror design came with power foldind mirrors, youd have to incorporate a motor somehow

 

Someone on this thread is adding I want to say Prado or Century mirrors that have courtesy lights, turn signals, and auto dim that use the same shell as the Tacoma mirrors. Can’t remember who it is.

 

hmm i may have to do research then... would be nice on the taco

 

Here's the latest and greatest on the mirror shells. https://www.ebay.com/itm/4Runner-97...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

 

I bought mine from a guy here. Came out great.

anyone ever have trouble with the cruise control not working? when I go to turn it on the light doesn't even come on anymore. most people ive read about having to change the clock spring still had the indicator light coming on. all my brake switches are working.

 

my light comes on like its supposed to, but the cruise itself only engages about 1/6 of the time lol

 

so funny. whenever I see shots of peoples engine bays I always see it hooked up still. is it worth asking a Toyota master mechanic? or would they just be like. "hell I dont know its all hooked up the way it should."

 

It's worth every penny of you spend a lot of time outside on the patio drinking with friends. Not only does it kill the flies, but its pretty damn fun.

 

You can tap em to the stock door speakers yes. But you will have to un-solder and un-wind the door speakers wires first, if you wanna slide the quick connect on. Then go back and redo everything. I did this with some Rockford fosgate tweeters on my 99. Eventually i upgraded every speaker.

 

If you look at the stock or new door speaker you will see a quick connect blade (male) that is there to mate to the tweeter quick connect (female). That's how it works.

 

I found a good reason to buy a stock air intake

 

If you any of you guys have manual transmission lift up on the clutch pedal with your foot. The clutch is still "technically" engaged just barely. I had the same issue until I found that out

 

ive tried that. sadly it wasn't the problem. my clutch actually manages to come all the way up now that I flushed it and put fresh fluid in it after swapping my frame out.

 

thanks for the tip, I will be sure to try that

 

likely the clutch cancel switch then.

 

watchu mean Blackdawg? the clutch cancel start button? or the switch the pedal hits? I feel like if it was that id be able to crank it without depressing the clutch.

 

switch on the clutch pedal.

The starter switch on the pedal is different I think as it looks for the clutch to be all the way down.

 

ahhh. well I will have to look into that as soon as it comes back from the mechanic. should be soon. dropped it off yesterday for belt/pump/gasket work

im guessing that if it wasn't functioning then the light just wouldn't come on at all?
