    Since you have DRLs, it seems you could hook up to that circuit with a harness. I think the referenced maker/member makes them custom and you could ask. Another member local to me made my harness for my grill lights and included a lead for backlit fogs. They understand the wiring (I don't really).
    And I still think the SR5 is a dang nice truck :). It just has fewer toys.

    Yes there's a TSB for the Qi charger, I just don't like people touching my stuff lol.

    The suspension install on these trucks is pretty straightforward including replacing the UCA's, doing the Hammer Hangers got a little violent though.

    About to open a can of worms on this one.

    Honda Odyssey is in the shop and they gave us a loaner. Must say it looks sharp next to the Tacoma.

    Looks like they took the odyssey and chopped the back... Everything looks better next to a Tacoma

    The plan is to leave it with the parents for the time. No need for it where I'll be.

    They need to run it a little, just to keep things lubricated. Transfer case and both differentials can lock up if left idle. They do not need to off-road it, but 10 miles a month they should take it out after a good rain and run it on a straight road in 4WD. The rain is because transfer case and 4WD tries to run all wheels at same speed, it is designed for slipping in other words. Any slightly slippy surface in a straight line will reduce strain on each corner trying to distribute power and still keep gears moving.

    I just found the thread, and sent him a message! FBC Harness Solutions seems to have what I’m looking for, and not too pricey.

    I have a pin switch like that already along with a toggle switch to interrupt the ground if I'm keeping the hood up when the light is not needed. I like his switch mount better than what I had.

    I had the same problem there when I was in Lahaina looking. Perhaps next time!

    It may be but a stiffener may draw it back in…just a thought. I put stiffeners on line knowing I was getting a canopy and wanting the extra insurance against issues. There’s a thread about bed cracks I’ve been monitoring lately. Maybe try drawing that gap closer with a ratchet strap and see if you can close it up a bit then that should tell you if stiffeners would be able to do the same.

    Very nice! I’ve been looking at that sale too. I really hope this works for you. I’d really give the ratchet strap thing a try…even if it’s just during installation to hold everything where it should be.

    How does this work? I don't have a ratchet just one of those pull with your fingers tight straps.

    I suppose I could improvise tie that little strap I have and then using a screwdriver put it in one of the straps and twist it.
