    I saw something you might like on your snorkel the other day....someone in black Jeep had a black skull on top of the snorkel instead of the normal chimney top basket lookin thing. It was disturbing and cool at the same time.......it was like this one.............

    I want to find some clips that clip onto the little channel around where the door would be and attach em to some clear plastic for random showers. The struggle is gonna be finding the clips.

    This is my 6th Toyota. One Land Cruiser, two pickups and the third Tacoma. All were 4x4's. Only the 2001 was an extra cab.

    It's a 2013 5 speed with the bench. I'll be adding some sliders for sure and bumpers if I can justify it so I have better recovery options. Little convenience things like cruise, intermittent wipers, maybe electric doors and windows are on my list. I'm researching swapping for buckets, but I'll need to figure out the seat airbag wiring as it seems there are some differences. Looking out for a shell or other storage option as well. I just put on some Tundra wheels I sourced off Craigslist and painted with duplicolor.

    I did the yellow wire already, and it does improved the low range operation, but I don't know if it's enough.

    It's going to be my daily driver, and replace my Jeep as an expedition type offroad tool.
