What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

It takes less than 10 minutes to be able to do that outside the truck. Let’s you do it from the backside too so you don’t put the part you see at risk. Console takes longer though.

 

I notched and reformed the ps rear corner of the tray so it slides further back allowing better access underneath.

 

It came in yesterday. Installed this morning.

 

Yeahhhh I don't want to deal with heat problems. Also one cooler is for my power steering/hydraulic winch

 

Got a free bottle of Rain-X Ceramic detailer thanks to another post here.

Buy it from Advanced or Pep Boys and they'll mail you a check up to $15!

Advanced even drove it to my house for FREE.

 

I did the console so there’s really no point in removing it since you have to cut through two sections of it (the interior piece and the outer piece).

 

That part is even easier. I thought you meant the dash section in front of the shifter. The console is just 2 x 10mm bolts under the pad and 2 screws under the cup holder. 2 more screws and the MT shifter boot section pops out. I mounted some stuff underneath so I removed the clips from the cup holder. It still snaps in but not as enthusiastically and makes it much easier to clean. There’s lots of room under the console bracket(what the 2x10mm bolts go into) for all sorts of things if you don’t have the inverter there. Not having to vacuum in/on/under the seats is the other benefit. Nice job.

 

Two loads of compost to fill a raised garden bed.

 

Picked up a new Lower Instrument Panel from the local dealer at a decent price and spent the past week cleaning up and redoing my auxiliary wiring/push buttons. Also replaced both OEM cigarette outlets with a new voltmeter/quick charge USB and proper 12v outlet, moved the radio Aux/USB Outlet over, and installed a dimmer knob.



Final product:

 

Looks so clean.

 

DAMN SON! That looks good!

 

Nice work. That’s a good idea.

 

RICE - O RAMA!!!!!! Somehow this looks better than no bumper so I’m just gonna leave it like this UNTIL I GET A BUMPER BUILT. I have my reasons

 

just.... wow....

 

You didn't add a coffee cam muffler too did you? Haha
In all seriousness though it looks pretty good.

 

Still better than many other aftermarket bumpers out there that decrease approach angle by like 60%

 

Plus the weight savings lol

 

Just picked this bad boy up! Gonna be putting it in the truck

 

Completed the "Ultimate Headlight Mod" all while swapping my aftermarket lights back to OEM. Will take some 'after' pictures tonight.

 

Done a couple minor things recently but so far my favorite mod was to get this piece of paper...



Such a good feeling to have this rig paid off.

Now I can finally start *really* modding it...!
