What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Oh no. Another mod! Thanks for the info.
Ebay might be a good place to locate a led third brake light b

 

Just MESO’d the crap out of my truck. Map lights, dome lights, total tails stage 1, license plate lights. So shiny!

 

This is the unit I installed.

$25 3rd Third Brake Light for 1995-2016 Toyota Tacoma LED Center High Mount Stop Light (Black Housing Smoked Lens)

OEM Trail Edition Wheels. Not sure if they are special in any way. (Like Subaru used BBS to manufacture their OEM STI wheels...)

 

I like how it looks. They are only 1.25". It gave it a little better stance. And who knows what the future brings? ;]

 

And, that’s all that matters. It’s your truck, set it up the way you like it.

 

Very true indeed. When we started the "hellaflush" thing, with our Subarus, we caught quite a bit of flack. Enormous amounts of hate on the big forums like NASIOC. Then it turned into this entire scene. It was insane. It got to the point where I hated it and set the car back up for function. The stock Taco just looked a little "skinny". It needs a levelling kit too. The saggy butt is off putting. When I finally get a lift and some big offset wheels and tires, the spacers should be handy. :]

 

Did the trimming for the new wheel/tire combo, test drove around the city and took it up to Rowher Flats OHV. No rubbing so far.

installed the speedometer calibrator as well. Had to play around with tire diameter till I got the ratio just right. Speedometer is dead on now.

 

Thanks. Ordered!!

 

Is this in Virginia?

 

Found a decent price on oem taillights on eBay and installed them with the Meso Customs stage 1 LED taillight kit. Beating back the chrome a little at a time. Oh and finally got rid of the dealer decal on the tail gate.

From this…


To this…

 

I got an ArcticStart ARX-4900S Remote Start installed today.

It required two other modules to make it work (which I'll post up here in a bit) since mine is a 6 spd MT.,

$570 parts and labor.

It has a keyfob and you can also use the Drone Mobile app to start it, turn it off and track it but an annual subscription is required.



These are the other two parts needed.

 

Wanted to scratch this wound one more time, I went into settings on my head unit and discovered my voice for the GPS was unchecked, so, I checked it (turned it on) and found out that my radio does not mute when that sexy AI lady tells me to turn right at the next light. But, she doesn’t talk long enough to make it an issue. One could always adjust the sexy lady’s volume up or down. Ok, done.

 

This is why I have trust issues

 

I’m going the same route you’re going with yours. I’ve decided to wait until spring to give the tires a little more wear.

 

Repaired a minor bumper casualty due to blind spots, rain, and impatient drivers at night driving right up on me when I was backing up. I couldn’t see some dumb hand rail in the dark with their stupid lights in my eyes. I was moving slow and got lucky by just tapping the rail. I can’t wait to put a real metal bumper on this thing. I mean, I can’t really complain right now because the bumper itself was a superficial fix where I just had to pop a few fasteners out and pull the black trim piece back up over the chrome caps.

I have my eyes on either the 4X Innovation rear bumper. https://www.4xinnovations.com/g3t_rear_bumper

Or the At The Helm rear bumper. https://athfab.com/product/2016-toyota-tacoma-standard-rear-bumper/

The are both pretty sweet.

I decided to reward my close call with body damage with a wash to get the fall grime off. LOL.

 

Totally not a fan of the scoop hood, but that really does look great.
