    Even if I did want new taillights, swapping our respective taillights would render both of our trucks illegal to drive on the street while we waited for the packages to arrive.

    Also, my taillights are so nice that people always ask me if they are aftermarket. Also, one of my taillights has a crack in it...

    That don't matter. I can always drive my mom's car. A crack doesn't bother me.

    It's absolutely nothing against you, but I love my taillights...

    I've got a factory AM/FM stereo CD with AUX input that might fit in your truck though!

    I have not seen it since 2016, and keep in mind that while it will fit in your truck, you'd have to ghetto-rig an AUX input as 2005-2008 Tacos didn't have the AUX input. I would also like to point out that it's black instead of silver since my truck is a base model, and it DOES NOT have Bluetooth. You can have my Boss BV960N with Tacoma dash bezel for $100 if, and ONLY IF, it doesn't fit my cousin's husband's Subaru.

    I know my factory radio is in the house somewhere, but it could take a while to find it...

    @ALI3N_123

    The Boss fits my cousin's husband's Subaru according to Crutchfield, so if he decides he wants it, it's his. It retails for $250 new, I was asking $150, and you can have it for $100 if he doesn't want it...

    It's ok, my radio is also black, and it's probably the same one.

    Nope, yours has three little circular buttons for the station presets on the lower part of the radio, and looks like this...

    [​IMG]


    This is the 2009-2012ish radio, and what the one in my truck looked like...

    I never noticed that. Either way, I'm going to swap it out. I'm broke right now, and my dad has gone into "money saving mode". I would've had my build finished, but my mom wanted to take a trip to Cancun, Mexico. I told my dad if I could have Tacoma parts instead of going on the trip, he agreed, but my mom didn't like that idea.

    You're looking at about $600-$750 to put a stereo like mine in your truck, including backup camera, subwoofer wiring, and rear speakers...
