Your unique mod on the 1st Gens

Hi... I got it from a friend.. all indicates this was from a ford or another big truck as it is very heavy . it got shortened

 

@Gamaliel ok thanks for the reply. I still haven't gotten around to making my front reciver yet.

 

Noah- really nice addition to the side view mirrors. Can you tell me where you got those light (blinkers) from? I'd been looking to do the same mod to my mirrors but trying to find the right light/lenses to integrate into the factory mirrors.

Thanks in advance!

 

Disregard, Noah- just found where you later posted the link. THANKS AGAIN!

 

Very cool mod. Do you have a pic of the actual lights you used? Also this may be an option in the future to activate the light when the hood opens.

I'll take a picture and post it in a little, I got them at Napa though.

it looks like that switch only has one terminal, how would it be connected to turn the lights on and off? im not an electrical surgeon

 

I used the same switch. The terminal on the bottom is for the negative. Positive goes to battery. It gets grounded when you bolt it in. When the hood is open and the switch pops up, the circuit is completed. When you close the hood, the pin pushes down and opens the circuit and lights turn off.

 

OHhhh thanks that makes sense

 

custom shifter

 

Here's a little mod I did. Maybe already done before. I bought one of those phone holders that clip on to the air vent for like $5 or something. Obviously didn't work especially when I clipped my heavy iPhone Plus to it. So I removed the backing which was held on by a screw. Drilled a small hole in the front center cluster panel and screwed the holder in place. Works great.

 

Your lift and wheel set up are exactly what I want for my new (to me) 2004 4X4. Would you mind sharing your parts list with me? Thanks

 

I made a custom bike rack with two Thule racks and a piece of angle

 

I may be installing WRX seats in mine soon, absolutely love the look and feel of them!

I'll need to modify the brackets a little and switch out the buckles but they fit great otherwise.

 

They do look nice. Hope you make it work.

I have been wondering if a set of second row seats from a Sienna would work. The type that fold flat and then tumble forward. It would be nice for rear seat area access to have a seat that folded flat forward. I'm going to look at some in salvage yard this Spring and see if it looks feasible. They are "striker" mounted and removable too. You can see the stikers peaking out of the carpet. You pull a lever and just lift the seat out of the vehicle.

I'd have to combine the two type of attachment systems or they would not slide adjust for leg position. That would be the task.
I wish @BartMaster1234 would go ahead and try it first so I'd know how difficult it would be...

 

That's enough to get his attention.

 

What years WRX seats fit?

 

These seats are out of an 04'

They don't necessarily bolt right up, I'll be fabricating tabs to relocate 2 of the 4 bolt holes. There's a slight mismatch in the front 2 bolts. It looks super easy and I'll definitely post them here when/if they get done

 

I'm stuck not being able to find some damn brackets man? Idc about modding them i just cant find any close to our year? What are you using?

 

These seats mounts are nearly identical to Toyota, so I won't need a bracket, I'll be extending the front 2 with 1/8 plate.
