What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Did you just swap the bottom bolt on the strikes? assuming with the same bolt the factory hook. The cable end is not too tight to fit on easy?

 

I did not have to use any harness for the headlights. They are plug and play. I had the oem DRLs. If you don't have Oem drls you have to use a separate set of wires and wire the drls up separately. Search YouTube for install videos and you will see what I mean. You can also check out fitment on different websites.

I do have aftermarket fogs. They are a random Chinese brand I found on Amazon. They have halo LED drl rings and separate LEDs when turned on with a wide and spot lense. They are made for toyotas and fit in the oem fog housing bracket. I've had them for around 2yrs now and they have surprised me how well they have held up. No lense coloring or vapor leaks. I expected to have to replace them with something more expensive by now but if they ever did need to be replaced I would probably buy them again off amazon.

 

get the dealer to do it

 

Alright. The weather outside is frightful, but I managed it to sound deaden one door while I still have some free time and daylight today. Installing an aftermarket sound system in the Northeast in the winter is not what I would recommend. I have all my speakers ready to go. I had to use a hairdryer to keep the door warm

 

No I purchased another tail gate cable, and it comes with another cable bolt. I then removed the lower latch bold and put the cable bolt in it's place, I works good for hauling wood, gate is at an angle and wood doesn't slide out

 

Almost bought those Morel's, but went with Focal Auditor's instead. Curious what you think of them.

 

Installed a lift and 35s with 5.29.

 

Woah what is this??

 

Welcome to TW!

 

Lol. Not installed yet. I'm guessing it's all a 5% difference one way or another but sounds good to the end user.

 

You gotta give us some details! Great work!

 

Thanks!! Feels good to be here!

had a buy once cry once mentality after crying all the time I had to change something on my 5th gen 4r.

did a lot of shopping on Black Friday. Waiting for ATH front and rear.

 

Ok, I got my 2023 Tacoma Saturday; I know it's brand new but I just keep thinking of mods I want to put on it. Not to make it gaudy, rather to personalize it. Nice truck, struggled between waiting on the 24's but pulled the trigger cuz I personally think the 23's will remain value until the madness settles down with the 4th Gen editions. Not to mention, traded a '20 Rav, work at Toyota and several, several thousands off; couldn't pass it up. Let's MOD UP.

 

and not everyone wants a supercharged 4 cyl

*Edit- turbocharged. I guess the grammar police are out.

 

Well done! Welcome to TW!

 

We have to plow the property where I work right now. After 11 years of doing it through three different trucks (all 2500 HD's) I can safely say the quickest way to send a truck to an early grave is to put a plow on it.

 

Congrats and have fun.

 

New to the forum, bought the truck this spring. Not alot of modifications yet, but added a used truck A.R.E. Truck cap for the winter months, new rims and tires. Eventually would like the Toyota factory lift kit and heritage grille, but that is for another time when I can save up the funds for it. So far love the truck, no regrets! My last Toyota truck was in high school (1981 pickup, Gold color with roll bars and PIAA lights - regret ever parting with it).

 

Right now, I figured I would use it to strap down packages from Macy's, Foot Locker and Spencer's gifts.
