    Why not just take a black sharpie and color the knob over and call it a day.

    Because I had no interest in drilling and as stated this works without an issue.

    There’s an existing hole, plugged by a large grommet, that leads to the wiring under the front seat. I cut a small slit in the grommet and run the wire thru it

    Hello,
    I have a friend who has a 2019 Tacoma SR5 and she has this ugly grille, can she change the grille out to a honeycomb oem grille?

    If it is possible i have a spare grille i can sell her

    I would build a hull wedge in the middle of the trailer. It would resemble the middle portion of your boat between the pontoons. Use the wedge design to get your elevation for the fenders, and also add stability to the boat, keeping it centered on the trailer. Maybe shod it on outdoor carpeting for somewhat of a pad as well.

    I have actually built some more on this trailer, I posted a little bit back on it. I extended the deck, put in guides, and removed a leaf from the overly stiff leaf packs. But I actually have a center guide for the boat, its not pictured here as its currently the stand for my kayak.

    I think the dealer might call that "more than a little modified".

    This is a good idea. Didn't think of it. My second thought, was it probably isn't good for those to sit on the roof all the time. Yes it looks cool.. but the sun and weather would probably take their toll on them.

    I can't imagine trying to do spark plugs with all that. I guess if you have the know-how to install it all it's not a big deal though.

    When I installed my Powerbrake system I was in a rush and didn’t do a full flush as I had done a full flush a few months prior with cheap fluid. Only bled the fronts. A full flush has been on my list for months and finally got around to it yesterday. Also knocked out a new serpentine belt as I heard mine starting to make some noise. Wayyyy easier once you drop the skids, nearly impossible if you don’t drop the skid.
