What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

There is a tsb.

mine isn’t bubbling, it’s just the small plastic piece where the pad meets the cup holder assembly.

 

Nothing a little heat gun can't cause/fix - instant bubbling

 

Haha.

 

I did 2 coats of Bulldog, then 2 coats of black, then clear and then plastidip… a little overkill but didn’t want to have to do it again

 

Do the front/rear tint looks similar from inside the cabin? I've been seeing a few of you with tint and getting an itch to have it done too...

 

I was worried about it too before i got mine. I had it for awhile now. Its just right, i got the white. One did come with a broken clip on the housing, i got it replaces eventually but it was kind of a pita to get response back from the seller.

 

Great addition, works well. I had to trim slightly for the Sabellco lock but I think that it came out well.

 

No UCA and no CMC. Just had to trim a little plastic off the fender flares.

 

Not the guy you replyed to, but do it asap. And do it right, get ceramic tint. I went with 20% all around, so rear is a bit darker cause of factory tint. But they look similar from the inside. Obviously you notice the back is a tad darker, but it's subtle and not something that jumps out to you. I can try and get an inside pic for you if that would help?

 

Links please.

 

That seems to be the consensus opinion on here, and I agree that it could definitely be improved. However, I do use it whenever I'm in the Taco for a long drive. I'm usually playing music through a CPlay2Air wireless Carplay adapter, and I find that if I have my phone on the wireless charger that it at least maintains its charge for the duration of the drive. It may not charge up any more, but at least it holds steady which is good enough for my purposes. I have also read some experiences with the phone getting excessively hot, but mine never seems to get more than a little warm, even over several hours.

Of course, I keep a lightning cable in the console just in case.

 

THANKS!!!!

 

bumping an old post but i believe this is my next lighting mod. What brackets did you use? Any photos with the hood up for close ups?

 

those side shooters are bitchin!

 

Not sure where you're at but this looks like that place outside of Radiator Springs where Lightning McQueen learned to turn on dirt. : )

 

What makes ceramic tint better than regular tint?

 

The Qi charger takes forever to charge a phone. Mine does get hot, but even worse, the rubber part has bubbled twice now, and I've had to get it replaced.

 

I accepted it was a shitty implimentation, and embraced it for a nice little lighted cubby for my wallet, key, and important stuff. Helps at night.

 

That's basically all I use it for at this point. I'm still getting it replaced since Toyota is covering it and the bubbles get on my nerves.
