    I love your avatar. My mind just blew up when I read it and then saw the Lexus circle L emblem become O and L for Over Lander haha very nice.

    Did the fog lights on anytime mod. Allows the use of the fog lights without having the headlights on. Still bummed that the fogs turn off when the brights are on but not the end of the world. At least now during heavy snowstorms I will be able to have just the fogs on. Here is the YouTube how to video.

    It should. Just looked at my 2011 Sequoia. It has the same relay in the fuse box. Just need to figure out what is best to tap off of for power.

    Yeah, I looked into the metaltech ones but their mounting method is terrible! The Demello sliders look pretty sweet.

    Ryan,

    Yup, your sliders are already back, your bumper is coming back soon. I was just in back and the guys were packaging up the sliders.
