No air box?

Planned today was to install my Volant Air filter and some Phillips LED for headlights. I noticed I don't have an airbox- is this normal? I have the Tacoma TRD Sport.

 

You have an airbox. It's the thing the tube connects to. It's just not where you would traditionally expect one to be.

 

the simplicity of this post gave me a solid chuckle

 

Here is a video from Volant about their cold air intake, skip to 44 seconds shows him popping the filter cover off: https://youtu.be/mN73VKyU4xU

 

I hate to be a dick, but did you even look at the engine bay and take a minute to think about what you saw before posting?

Just kidding - I like being a dick.

 

I really think he meant too say AIR PUMP,which he does not have the ones like the 2012 and so so trucks come with.

 

for the love of fucking god OP. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT use those god aweful light scattering LED bulbs in the standard housings. Your light output will be worse down the road and you will just blind everyone at night. its people like you that put those LED bulbs in that i make sure to flash my high beams .

 

Hopefully he wont buy them or put them in.The cops will ticket you here in Vegas if you have them.

4 bills with a scoop.. wow

 

With any luck, OP won't figure out to swap headlights, either.

 

OP should probably stay away from the engine.....

 

How much does this cost for the miniscule (if any) improvement?
