    Has anyone with a 6 speed taken out their center cup holders and put in something else?

    The cup holders take up so much space, and it just looks like it was an afterthought to fill up the space, and I don't need 5 drink holders in a 1.5 ft. radius.

    Thought it would be nice to just have like a flat rubberized tray to lay my phone or something.

    Haven't done it yet, but plan to put a switch or two over the "cans only" pocket on the top left. At least that will be functional for something other than slowly collecting garbage and dog hair! :rolleyes:

    I have a 2012 Tacoma double cab 6cyl with a electric brake booster. We replaced the booster and need help to reconnect the brake lines. The manifold on the booster has 4 holes with each hole having a number from 1-4. Which line goes where?

    Anyone have a picture of their connected lines?

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to do this, but here is a link to the 2014 Tacoma full manual, searchable and downloadable. I made it from the 34 downloads available from the Toyota website. I would post it as an attachment, but TW has a policy of, I think it said 8 mb, and the file is 15 mb. Anyway, here it is: 2014 TOYOTA MANUAL FULL PDF .

    It's about time I contributed something useful! I owe this forum--it is one of the reasons I bought my truck. I thought, "if these guys/gals care this much for their truck, they must be good!" And they are. Anyway, the pages don't exactly match up in the manual, but with a little quick math, anyone should be able to use the table of contents to find what they need (if anyone besides me ever uses those anymore). Search works, so that should take care of the majority.
