    Hi,
    I'm Quintonsdusty and I'd been mostly been an owner of GM products but quality had deteriorated in recent years. I'd owned a 2008 Silverado LT with 129k but I had concerns about the active fuel management system so I had an opportunity to retire the silverado and purchase a 2001 Tacoma with 91k.

    I'm pleased with my 20 year old Taco SR5 and have stated to make some mods to the Xta cab 2.4 automatic. To start, the factory radio and speakers were in need of an upgrade to an
    $280 Alpine iLX-W650 7" Double DIN Touchscreen Digital Multimedia Receiver with Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
    Alpine iLX-W650 and 4 Kenwood 6x9's. Next came front and rear cameras, fog lights, rear backup lights and control switches in the console below the radio.

    This brings me to a question on powering. I plan on using the auxiliary 12v power as my source but I can't locate the fuse that protects the power plugs. If anyone can assist me, I am grateful.
