    I did the ECT relocate mod with an ECT extension from @trdtacomabob which can be purchased here https://kabowest.com
    The extension is set up to reach the driver side switch cubby area, opening up a switch spot on the center dash console.
    I relocated the switch on the center console next to the E-Brake, thanks to @oostroma fo the positioning idea. Also added a 2nd switch spot for future installs.
    Install video will be up on the channel by tomorrow.

    Ever since I got tuned I haven't felt the need for ECT. :burnrubber:

    I put the oem aluminum running boards back on and got me some oem mud flaps. So far I’m liking the look of the mud flaps and running boards together.700ABB2B-0C99-41A7-82EB-520E5C79C783.jpg F188ED9D-1417-4D5E-92F0-D130DBFF5EEA.jpg

    They have been fantastic to deal with so far.

    Looks good. Glad I could share.
    On that note, MESO has made a single switch holder now for this ECT switch location. Maybe he can bundle the extension cable from @trdtacomabob with it?

    I have not seen anyone on TW from Ontario that does this "tuning" you speak of.
    Note, the relocate places the ECT button at a more convenient location for occasional usage as well as frees up a space in the dash for another mod. Especially for those that only got 1x spare switch spot like my 2017 TRD OR access cab.

    I hope you didn't buy the mud flaps. I would have sent you mine for the cost of shipping. They don't work well in Ontario which is odd since the truck comes with them from factory.

    I replaced the battery in my key fob, after about three warnings from my truck that it was getting low.

    Info on how you did that and/or your setup would be awesome.

    I'm not knocking relocating the ECT button, just saying a tune eliminates the need for it.

    Do you need a tune if you drive slow and never tow things?

    If you're an old woman I suppose you wouldn't notice but if you're a normal driver, yea, big big difference.

    Then it probably wouldn't be of much use to you. I have a good friend who's like that. Super mellow and never gets in a hurry. Weed will do that to you. :rasta:
