    IMG_3270.jpg Just picked up my first Tacoma. My first car was an 82 SR5 LB 4WD.

    The forum has been very helpful already. I installed a bed mat after reading how easy it is to fall on a wet bed. Tinted and put a full clear bra on. Put black rubber mud flaps front and rear with Big Sky Montana flaps on the back. I also installed the intermittent wiper switch. Cruise is on order as is a bug deflector. First one was crushed in shipping.

    I have a heated seat kit and need info on how to wire and properly remove the dummy plugs under the a/c. Specifically, is any part of the wiring harness there for the factory heated seats I could tap into? Thanks in advance! Here's a pic.

    Picked up a tool box Friday and ordered some smoke fog lights the wife liked. I want to find some of the Leer track mounts to install the box with. I can't believe how much I've used this truck as a truck since I bought it. Not sure how I lived without it.

    If you are looking to the navigation mod just buy the complete navigation unit from a 2016 or 2017 remove dash panels and 4 10mm bolts all plugs remove brackets on old navigation and place on new navigation you will have to get the navigation antenna and the navigation dash panel for the new navi because the old one is smaller you will have to get the one with the larger opening if you have any questions just Pm me

    Pic of where I mounted the converter box behind the drivers tail lamp using an existing hole and existing stud to mount the ground wire. The harness length seemed like it was made for this. I wanted to mount the box where it was protected.IMG_3672.jpg
