    Really eh? Canadian tires return and exchanges are shit. I had 3 different people there tell me I have to go through Stanley and I was like, nope you don’t. They are all “ ya in pretty sure”
    “I’m 100% sure look it up”

    “Oh yeah your right ok you can tongrqb another and bring it back and I’ll switch it for you...”

    No kidding

    I’ve gone through 4 of those soft ball fat maxes. Feel great in your hand but the tape quality isn’t fat max quality. Oh well tapes for life:p

    No 21mm in 1/2. Needed it for my lugs at the time.

    Good to know. Next time.

    Be sure to use 100% stainless hose clamps in our climate. CT has both the hoses and clamps in the plumbing section.

    Playing around with the build & price tool and lease calculator on Toyota's web site. New Supra with standard paint color is $67k before HST. Residual value after a 3-year lease is $38k. This means Toyota expects the Supra to lose 42% of its value after 3 years in Ontario. :)

    Maybe its just the OR:notsure: I don't have the tech package (no wirelss charger, blind spot monitor, rear sensors) i just know i got it.

    the Auto-high beam is a button on its own. Pressing it only "arms" the system - there is a notification on the dash as well when done so. When flicking the high beams on, the system dictates wether its on or off.

    By my own decuction - i'd assume it would be as easy as splicing a connection to the light bar from the signal wire/ camera that keeps watch of the road ahead which ultimately controls the highs. I'm thinking to have a splice head into the light bar (most likely either the relay or directly into the switch cables) the same way the system is connected to the highs.

    This way, all i would need to do, idealy, is "arm" the system using the auto-high button and flicking on the lightbar.
    I'll look into it some more since i'd be a nice little addition, useless but nice.

    I picked up 10ft. Have a little extra down by the dif to leave some flex in the line also used stainless steel fuel injector clamps to clamp things together since its made to hold onto fuel line hoses ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    this is what it looks like in my tail light

    You have to put a breather. Allows air out but nothing else in.

    the OEM Union and Breather? Yeah, used that exact same link/guide that he posted, just had to wait a little over a week since Toyota Canada had been fucking around with their computer systems so there was a bit of a backlog to get the parts. Other than that - works just fine for us 3rd gens.|

    If you're getting parts (the fuel line hose and clamps) also do the A/C Drain mod as it takes 10 minutes to do. and while you're at it, go upgrade the engine bay rock/splash guards to the ones we made :thumbsup: Might as well do it since for the A/C fix, you need to take off the 2 piece bikini that Toyota calls "splash guards"

    A/C drain fix; https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/rust-on-frame-with-a-c-drain-mod-fix.444138/

    Advertising like a shameless whore; https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...bay-splash-guard-rock-guards-template.621635/




    And this is the snowball effect of modding a Tacoma
    :spending:

    but my left hand in on the steering wheel while my right hand is pretending to rack through gears as i drive my AT :notsure: I need the technology to do this for me otherwise i'm incapable of doing anything as a millenial:rofl:


    yeah i know, it's easier to shut it off my hand, was mostly just wondering if anyone knew about anything about the topic. I'm completely capable and fine with shutting it off when i see oncoming lights, been doing it up till now - why stop?
