    Hi Guys,

    my name is Stéphane and obviously new to the forum. After years of procrastinating and enduring life with 2wd Frontier, I finally purchased a 09 Tacoma 4-door TRD Sports. I use it mostly to go hunting, camping.
    I'll be searching for a few things since a couple of them puzzle me a bit.
    #1. the A/C light came on flashing last weekend. That on is on wasn't concerning me, but the smell of burnt wires and the engine almost stalling when the light came on worried me. ( I was out in the woods about 100 km(60mi) from the nearest city. I removed the fuse for the A/C and thr truck has been fine.
    #2. The previous owner converted the headlight with hid type. Unless I can find a way to adjust them, I will most likely switch back to more standard ones. The way they are now, it would be fantastic for bird watching.

    Anyhow, time to search what I can find, but being pointed in the right direction will be of help too.

    Cheers,

    Stéphane

    Here are some pix. Sorry, love the truck, but it is a tool to me more than a toy. So not much pictures of a clean truck ;-)
