    See I'm kinda one of those, its whats on the inside kinda guys, and well that mean that I like the underside of my truck as clean as the outside...

    That's where the Bridgeport mud becomes a problem. I have literally spent over $40 at the carwash spraying that mud off, and still haven't got it all :eek:

    yeah you would just have to find the power wire to the high beams and splice it into the power wire to your KCs. you will most likey have to up the ampage of the fuse too.

    that or splice the power wire for the high beams to the wire for the KCs that flip the relay on.

    What do you guys think... Should I remove the TRD sticker?

    I've been dealing with this battle for a while...

    Na. I think It gives it a little extra style, Your truck already looks good with the black on black. The sticker is a nice touch IMO.

    I haven't found any that I really like. I came up with one I wanted, but he told he doesn't design them any more...

    I was thinking a gray one of some type though.

    yea... If you did remove them your tail lights would stick out ALOT and if it was me that would annoy me and i would end up smoking them. Which in turn is only spending more money. The way I see it, Dont fix what aint broke:rolleyes:

    I think if you remove sticker, blackout the tail lights. it would look really clean.

    So I was going to go get dog food earlier and I made a u-turn at a stoplight when the light turned green, this total jerk in a prius ran the red light, honked at me and flicked me off, most bullshit thing all day, I wanted to punch the guy in the trachea!:mad:

    On the plus side I got $100 from a cell phone contract rebate for gas money:D

    Hard to blame the guy for being an asshat... his wife (or domestic partner) is making him drive a prius. I'd be pissed too!


    On the bright side - the 4Runner is home. Still on the trailer since I need to wait for space to open up in the garage tomorrow morning before parking it. I'll get some pics up once I have something pic worthy. The Tacoma did pretty good pulling it home. The leaf springs were kinda bouncy but not bad considering I had it at 5k lbs total.
