    Please tell me the template was inside. My nightmare is the scaling from printing this will be off and drilling into the wrong part of the fender.

    That's the plan. If the templates aren't inside, we won't be shipping them until we have templates in hand.

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    Lol, he said small snorkel hole ;)



    Oh yes I did just post that ridiculousness I found on the Net!

    What up Mike! I appreciate the fast hook up with the snorkel.
    I read in the initial post that these were built around the OEM airbox. Do you think that I could get this to work with my TRD intake as well? I have my oem airbox I was just curious as to your thoughts.
    Thanks

    It's quite possible, if it uses the same connections to the inner fender that a standard airbox would use. I'm not familiar with it though, but if the TRD intake is a "cold air intake" with an open air filter, then no. Maybe post good photos up of your intake and others can post their standard intakes for comparison to help sort this out.

    Yes. Should be installing it this weekend. It’s pretty straight forward and I have done a few before on my other trucks. Gonna have to get replacement snaps for the fender flares and wheel liner as they can break when removing those items.

    I’ve removed the flares before but never the wheel liners in these trucks. Do the plastic nuts(?) require a special tool? It’s just a square opening on the head. ‍

    They only shipped out on Friday, so I don't think anyone got to it that fast.

    I will let you all know my findings on the TRD intake. Got a lot of stuff to put on the taco. Black Friday was a mad house on TW.
