    My driver light is blinding white, my passenger map light is red, I can use the red passenger side while driving if needed. Enough light to see something I dropped on the floor without ruining my night sight, my drivers for when I need to read a map or fiddle with something when stopped or loading or unloading something in the cab.

    Everyday use is my Ram mount phone mount on the channel track.
    Favorite is the bed mat.
    Coolest is the Prinsu roof rack.

    None of which I knew existed until joining TW.

    3rd Gen Tacoma rough country seat covers fitting 2nd gen. Their eBay page often has open box sets which I picked up for 100$ full double cab and can't be happier with them.

    AliExpress head unit for wireless android auto/carplay/gps and a decent amp built in to drive infinity kappas for 200 bucks w/ glass 11" display

    Dammit I REALLY like the features this offers, but I also like my DTRL a lot. Seems there's always a "catch" with cool products.

    Yep I think you can always turn some on all depends if its for actual use or looks. But in the setup you specifically unplug the DTRL and replace it with this product. I may have always had the DTRL off so did not really notice a difference.

    By this, you mean you can program the DTRLs to be on or off with the new Flasher Module?

    I didn't know much about long travel suspension until I found TW. I took one ride in a LT truck and knew I had to have it.

    Yeah if you need some pictures, I can scoop some later after work, but all the seams line up and fit great! Quality is good also, and swear it can't be beat if you find them at 100 bucks since they're custom fit.
