Who said the Tacoma doesn't have enough secure storage ..... Installed my new Pelican secure storage box. Due to the two swing cases, the default rail is a little low for the brackets supplied. However, a quick snip with the dremel and everything fits like a glove. Both the Pelican and Swing Cases are removeable, just in case my Truck wants to do pickup things.

 

Hows the build quality on that Pelican? I have an 80 and a 90 on the way to me currently.

 

Maybe you already know...it looks like the dog hammock is in upside down. The 'handles' are meant to tuck in between the back of the seat bottom and the bottom of the seat back to keep it all tight and right.

 

Thanks! I was wondering why it had handles.

 

My dealer said I get 2 oil changes, they didn't care when I took them. Did mine at 5k, But I will not be taking my truck back for #2. They stripped 3 of the 4 bolts holding on the skid plate.

 

...and they fixed it immediately?

 

This is a small thing but very handy - I bought those custom storage dividers for the console and glovebox from the eBay online vendor and love the way they let you organize what would normally be just a pile of stuff. There's a lower divider and an upper tray. The only complaint I have is there's not a good handle or grab point for the upper tray.

 

And since I'm on the subject of the console, there's this on the underside of the console lid - what's it for?

 

Some folks say it's to hold a pen.

 

Did a couple things today….

1. installed VLED 5500K interior package
2. Installed OEM bed mat (

3. Installed OEM bed lighting kit (

4. Installed JK center console and glove box organizers
5. Registered and installed license plate

 

...and hold a pen it does for sure! Some say it's for the cable you might have plugged in below, other say it's for the tailgate key!

 

Looks awesome!! remove the plates and install black valance to complete the pack. Im doing grill, valance, trd pro headlights and fogs soon too!

 

Some goo gone and your thumbnail will take that glaring white AVS right off.

 

Added this little bit of bling to my garage wall (wife vetoed it being inside the house). Handy for when I’m washing the truck or working on it and I don’t want the keys in my pocket and setting off the automatic locks when I touch the handle.

Used it as a shuttle rig

 

AJT Door handle covers

New patches

 

Put a nice looking dog hammock in the back on the platform I built, then put Ella's cushion there. Looks tidy I think.

Then I installed some Oasis fake leather seat covers. They will need a few hot days of stretching and being adjusted to fit snugly, but I like the way they feel and that I can now pour coffee all the hell over myself without wrecking the seats.

 

Rust-Oleum 2x ultra cover in semi-gloss.
I've ran it thru a brush carwash at least 4 times and it's holding up good so far!
