    found a bezel for ya today out of a '96 paradise blue, emmet
    but now not sure you are in need of it :notsure:

    it doesn't seem to be broken anywhere but it is missing the pullout cupholder tray, and IDK if that is a separate item that can be swapped from one to the other

    Since I bought my 2002 tacoma shes been nothing but an expensive headache. Tried to sell it but I'm sick of dealing with flakes and everyone that wants to trade their shitbox diesel for it so I'm just keeping it and gonna beat it up until she wont go anymore. I found out my 31×10.5 stt pros with my -19 offset wheels rub like a mofo so I whipped out the hammer and took down those pinch welds and cut some plastic away. She clears now....mostly. Took her to the UP this last weekend to a friends cabin and I was impressed, shes not the trusty 95 that sits wrecked in the driveway but she goes everywhere I ask her to, now it's time I get around to putting all that still shiny fox suspension kit on her and give herhell. Squats quite a bit loaded with all of our gear.
