    The bracket I got will fit any D cell Maglite. The link below is the same one I got, but I got mine off sears.com (site is down right now so I can’t get a link). I’m thinking about going with either a 3 or 4 cell all depends on how long they are. For the installation I have a rivet gun and rivets that you can use.

    I can hook you up with this. It's a lot easier than it seems. Just need to be careful when you apply them. I just put the TOYOTA tailgate one on the other week. $70 to install is crazy!

    That's what I thought too. Everything up here is expensive though. Only 17 more days until ATMD!

    Oh Sucky. I have to work that day. I really want to do a satoshi and throw some light force behind my grille as well as the fogs anytime mod. Also need to buy some new tails or tint these ones. My stock pink tails are driving me crazy!

    The satoshi is like an all day event. I have mine done and it took me a while. I drove around with my grill off for like a week or so I could take my time with it. I screwed it up the first time and it was not that good. The second time around turned out a lot better. I could help you out with that one anytime. I also want to put lights behind the grill. I just have lots of other things I'm doing first.

    2011 TRD Double Cab
    Hi guys, I am very interested in mod day as well. I am waiting on my 2011 double cab, TRD off road to show up... I ordere it a month ago and Kendall Toyota tells me they don't expect the truck to show up until early Dec which is killing me... in the mean time, my fiance drives an '04 taco extended cab which she has been kind enough to let me borrow while I am between vehicles. I would love to show up and hang out for a bit to check out the other rides and get some ideas about what to do w/ my truck when it arrives. I already have a pretty decent list of "to do's" when the truck gets here, but am always looking for new ideas. I really love the look of the Satoshi grill, so I'd love to check one out in real life and get some tips on how to make it work. I know the event will take place in Anchorage, but can I get an actual address? I'm looking forward to meeting some the local TW crew!

    Ammo Guy is going to PM the address when it's closer. You're more than welcome to come by and hang out. Sounds like you have a killer ride showing up in a little bit. I have the Satoshi and I have lots of tips on how to do it. Should be a good time.

    I'd be interested in attending but getting time off and getting off Kodiak with my truck and heading up there would be very time consuming. If your having another mod day in the summer next year when I'm traveling thru I would love to come...maybe even just a meet and greet!
