    My son's 07 we changed out all of the 3 tail lights to something a little darker. He was loving them when I showed him the upgrade before placing the order. Those pink lights just had to go.

    I’ll remove the damage multiplier, and start sourcing the parts to convert the truck to 4x4! Join the gang!

    What makes me happiest about mine is the upgraded head unit, speakers and backup camera.

    It’s hard to tell but it looks like you might have a bu camera attached to the rear license plate.

    I enjoy the hands free call, text, navigation and the improvement in sound quality from the better speakers.

    Beyond that, it’s dependent on what you plan to use it for. Lucky for you there’s options galore and the gang here to help with any issues that may arise. Stupid questions, sure, why not. You might get razzed but you’ll get plenty of suggestions too. Btw, any stupid silly questions are best asked on Friday.

    Welcome to the clubhouse.

    Got them on tacoma beast.com. I’m super happy with them but they were not the easiest to install.

    I’ve got a upgraded head unit with a microphone for hands free, along with the backup camera. Along with that I have 2 12 inch kicker comps subwoofers and a 2500 watt amp. I couldn’t go without it.
    I’m somewhat new to the tacoma world platform but am super stoked with how it’s been so far. Really seems like there’s some cool people on here.

    if you're doing this yourself, it's probably $1,500 or more in parts.

    if you're having a shop do it, probably $4k but prices varying depending on region.

    forget all the mods, have you changed ALL your fluids recently? cleaned out the intake, spark plugs, etc?
