    Did you dip the rear parking sensors also and does it still work okay if so?

    Nice lights... on my 2013 taco which was all black I had a knight rider light on the front in the grill got pulled over for it and was told I couldn't have it and had to remove it.

    I really think some of the light laws are a bit to strict. In no way can that be mistaken for an emergency vehicle.

    Had a few half cans of anthracite grey laying around from a previous project.
    IMO it looks better than black with this body color and doesn't fade like black, even with the UV glossifier.

    Where are the screws located at? I thought it just popped off but I am afraid to just pull on it now after reading that.

    ^^^ this. It's after the vents are off completely that you will see the screws, which have nothing to do with holding it to the dash.

    My plasti dipping adventures so far. I'm contemplating doing my wheels, but I'm not sure yet because I think I want to get the pro wheels.

    I used blue painters tape to make a small square around it and put a plastic grocery bag over the steering wheel. And tore a small hole around the emblem. Some advice though is to either put small pieces of tape in the emblem sections or rub the vinyl down with some greasy like protectant because the inner parts are extremely hard to get the plasti dip off of.

    It's not vinyl, it's Plasti Dip.
