    Quick Links: LED Light Bars... Show em off! Filling diffs, t-case. Great, how much is this going to cost me? Bought a dash cam. Should I wire constant on or switched on? Add Variable-speed wiper to base Tacoma - missing wires? What are y’all paying for diagnostic scans?

Did some mods to my 2010 this weekend...

    We'll start with the "before" pics, 2010 SR5 Prerunner with a nice A.R.E. topper, added Cruise, disabled DRLs, extr D-rings in the bed...

    ......


    And now the "after"... brand new '12 TRD Offroad DC with all the bells & whistles! I'm a pretty happy dude.

    I will miss my trusty 'Runner! But V6, 4x4, Double Cab with an auto trans is going to be seriously luxurious I'll admit!

    Gotta figure out if the DRL disable (or switched) mod works on the '12 now, guess I'll be looking at the Fog Light mod too. Cheers, all! :)

    That is exactly the truck I'm looking to buy. I've been told the TRD Off-road package in the new nautical blue is kinda rare right now. Very nice truck!

    Thanks! It must have been fate that I found exactly what I was looking for. I personally really dig the color, but was willing to make that a secondary concern to price. But as luck would have it, I got out the door $250 over invoice... and even managed to get $3500 out of my 'Runner after they paid off the existing loan. All in all, not bad for 6 hours at the stealership... :D:cool:
