    Hello TacomaWorld! I just thought I would share a video I made on the TacoRail. If you are interested, stop by and check it out!

    If anyone has questions about this setup, let me know. It was really easy to install. There are a few things I noticed during the install that are important to know about (that I did not know until I started putting everything together).

    The main thing I should mention is the alignment of the 3 holes that you will need to drill. I noticed that, when "centering" the TacoRail to make the base sit directly above the entertainment system screen, the two end holes come extremely close to the retaining tabs located on the backside of the trim assembly. I did have to "offset" the TacoRail base just barely to clear the retaining tabs located on the backside of the trim. However, you don't really notice the "offset" at all (unless you are REALLY looking).

    I hope this helps anyone who might be interested in the TacoRail.

    Also, on an unrelated note, if you like the video, please consider subscribing to my YouTube channel. I really appreciate all of the support I've received from everyone on TacomaWorld. This place is a great community and I am very excited to contribute more to this forum in the future!

    Awesome vid. I installed mine last week. I actually was able to center it and used a dremel to sand it down where the tab was, and it worked like a charm.
