    I added the seat lifts today; received them as a promo. But the holes were 3/8-16 and the bolts M10-1.5! Thankfully I have (a) a thread checker to verify; and (b) some spare 3/8-16 bolts. I do need to run to the parts store to replace the ones I had on hand with some with flanges or get some sturdy washers. So a 10-minute job is going to take a lot longer: diagnosis of the issue first, a trip to the store, and re-doing one set of bolts (I'll use some Loctite when I put them in permanently).
    Moral: DDI is way more expensive than free, but there is a reason that you pay for quality.

    @Omegastu I have a 2021 and did the same project a couple weeks ago. I tapped into the USB in the console for power. I used @ClassyTacos YouTube video as a guide.

    @MGMDesertTaco I did the same install about a year ago, I've had no issues. Just be sure not to make the opening too large, leave it a little snug and you should be good. @GuildOutfitters has a good install video on their YouTube channel.

    Being -30 Celsius, with wind chill of -43, (-22 Fahrenheit) here yesterday & today, I've brought in my booster pack from back seat into the house, and I bring it out with me when I take the Taco out for a ride.

    My Battery is 5 years old now, and I've been pushing my luck. I just hope it's enough to do the job!!!!

    intake mods, firestone airbags, campershell, backup lights,
    I see where individuals are putting backup lights recessed into the bumper. For some reason
    I kept thinking the bumper was a real bumper instead of plastic. So I mounted it by the rear
    license plate. Its ok there I just should have moved it more to the center line so the plate
    covered the mount up to the lights edge. may have looked better but it works.
    the Schraeder valves are for airbags plumbed individually.

    Could have turned the mount 90* too, that might clean it up a bit. Other than that strong work fellow zonie

    Idk what to do next. I wanted to add a roof rack but I dont really need one cause I guess I could put traction boards and an axe in the bed. Also wanted to do a grill swap and add raptor lights and ditch lights but idk. Getting enough in tax returns to do it but I'm like allergic to spending money.

    Run! Hide! Stay away from here! Or your money will be gone in no time.
    Maybe give it a fresh tank of gas and save your money for your next down payment. Otherwise you could order a TRD Skid and have it shipped to my address. I promise to be grateful.

    On this car specifically it's just fabric. No insulation.

    It's just plastic. Cheap part to replace if anything.

    I plan to do the same but with a baja S1 flush mount.
