    Any quick tips for cleaning the oxidation from my headlights. They're getting pretty bad. I'll be checking out the forums more, but figured a few of you vegas peeps may have tips. We deal with lots of grime and dust out here, and the heat.

    I just buffed mine with Meguires Plast-X or some kind of plastic polish. I'm pretty sure it was plastx

    Yea I'm probably going to do the same.. I've never had a vehicle headlight get so foggy so fast as my Tacoma. My 95 Ford Ranger looked better after 10 years.

    Been doing some work to my truck- blacking out wheels, new bumper, steps and what not. I'm thinking of putting a new stereo in and doing some electrical goodies (lights, winch, etc). Can anyone recommend a good installer in town?4be122b5804172a8fa624a6455262fb9_10e01b3b3b596356ef73c96a8e81693f923c165e.jpg

    For lighting check out VegasHID, they do pretty good work and he's the only guy I know who does lighting but I'm sure there are others that do it too. MCM may do it too

    Haha. It's been a long time coming. And I am going to be using the spindles, just need to have spacers made because the camburg joint is a little thinner than the factory joint.

    So I tried wrapping some interior parts and the only that turned out nice was the ac plate. Anyone have any recommendations of a local shop that wraps? I found 2 and sent them emails asking if they do interior parts but still waiting to hear back. Here's the finished product of my ac plate.

    I could be game for helping, on Taco DIY stuff. I need to do my carrier bearing and struts soon. Could trade labor for labor, and i have a garage.
    BTW that kit looks like it could take a while if you havnt done it before.
