    Did a small addition today.

    After adding my console vault, my Flyzeye magnet lights for the center console no longer fit anywhere.
    So I decided to just put in a simple LED always on, wired with a switch.

    Works good enough for now, but I didn’t feel like pulling everything apart and drilling so I just ran the wires today.

    I have a fridge but honestly, I didn’t need solar. I just capitalized on an opportunity. My wife wants the driveway back but the truck is plugged into a trickle charger there. I told her if I got solar, I could park in the street. She agreed, and here we are.

    That is a great mod, DID the screen, but the screen is mostly against rodents making a home in your cabin filter. and my Taco lives outside in a forest.
    I also put a piece of sheet metal , rounded between the bottom of the windshield trim and the cowl edge, glued in, for rain water protection ......think I saw a you tube video, it leaves an opening on both sides for air flow from outside for your AC blower......if you cover it with a solid lid, you have no airflow.

    eventually bought a replacement cowl, to get intact tabs, that make a tighter seal with windshield so water doesn’t come from above.

    you will be shocked how much crap is accumulated in those drains.........you have to remove 2 screws in wheel liner.....

    Haven't done anything to it recently but I did bring it to Joshua Tree and my buddy took some pics with his dslr (forget which lens) Never had any pics taken of my truck with anything other than my phone so I'm really liking these! Still have to throw on sliders and trim fenders but that might not be for a few weeks.

    Is that a dasaita model? Mine looks very similar to yours and I installed a AT front camera that I can recommend.

    Drivers side, bottom left. Passenger side, bottom right. Allows me to just see my back tires and of course the blind spot. Do this on all my vehicles. I just use the non directional dome style mirror. Just make sure you really get the glass clean before you stick on the mirror...will last longer (107k on the Taco, did it to the truck when my dad bought it, and 165k on my old Rabbit...)
