    A little something every chance we get.
    You can take my fears as irrational - convinced that only I would get blackout tint by some defect! I got that tint look on mine by getting the ones with the matte black framing inside around the reflectors. They look tinted, but aren't. Paranoia defeated! Yours look sharp - don't take me wrong at all!
    Hey - we get to see you and @Pizzasteve5717 for the first time the 11th!

    Thats what I thought, the 18lb'er yeah? What do you think of it?

    I read over the hydro bearing install instructions last night, looks pretty daggone simple. "Remove garbage. Install the sex. Torque the bolt. Bleed. Test drive. Have beer and enjoy superior product."

    I'll check out that install guide here in a bit, thanks for the link :D

    Been trying to read through all the guides on here to make sure I understand everything I'll be doing over the next couple of weeks. I'm really excited about it all but damn it's a lot. I didn't get released back to work for another three weeks as of Thursday. I'm actually hopeful now that they don't release me again so I can spend a week straight working on all of this.

    eBay?
    What's black market eBay called?
    Anyone got a link?

    Looking to add a roof rack to my taco. Is it better to go with toyota parts on this or is there a better quality for less $ aftermarket option?? Is this a good deal??69EF86DA-6089-49E0-9690-1C36C22FDE37.jpg

    I guess it depends on what level of wind noise youre willing to tolerate. I have the oem and its fine but I dont use it. i also think its best for the lack of wind noise compared to the basket style roof racks.

    A little something every chance we get.
    Evening everyone! Well, I worked until dark, but mostly completed everything I set out to do today. Guess I'm glad I didn't get to washing the truck, because it started raining on me as soon as I quit. I got this far;
    :thumbsup: Replaced the entire fog circuit with a new harness I got with the yellow fogs (abandoned the OEM and all its rules!)
    :thumbsup: Gives me a cab switch that actually lights up - I can see it in the dark now
    :thumbsup: Gives me a relay with NO NC contacts - so fogs ON, DRL in the grille OFF! (no glare), and vice versa!
    :thumbsup: Mounted said relay on a new relay tower bracket I fabbed up - two more spots in the tower reserved!
    :thumbsup: Cut into the power wire (was actually 6 #18, NOT a big wire!), and got the circuit breaker installed on the switch box
    :thumbsup: Used an Add-a-Fuse tap on the AC fuse, and epoxied a terminal strip to the new box for a switched hot tie point
    :thumbsup: Used an Add-a-Fuse tap on the inside ACC fuse, and wired a new 3 outlet cigar socket for cams and Garmin. Mounted on Pass floor
    :thumbsup: Got the front dash cam and Garmin power wires up through the A pillar, under the headline, and out under the mirror. (Rear coming)
    :thumbsup: Snaked the multi cable for the new controller up the driver A pillar, under the headliner, and into the console
    :thumbsup: Got the controller switches mounted and secured in the garage door opener pod in the the console

    AND EVERYTHING WORKS! Some isn't final, because I will have some more in certain bundles, but it is all driveable without stuff hanging out everywhere! And now one of the cup holders isn't full of wire bundles! Some proof....

    I don't know if you got an answer elsewhere, but I got these when I re-did my lamps to LED - haven't failed, twice as bright. Can't complain about price....
