    finally found the time to continue the saga of my truck

    @Canyonero was paying it forward and send me his two roof weather strip moulding strips free of charge from the Islands of Hawaii to VA. Finally found the time to reinstall them today:

    HUGE THANKS AGAIN TO CANYONERO FOR HELPING A BROTHER OUT!

    Also decided to go ahead and install a homelink interior mirror sourced on ebay with the 10pin connector. Truck came stock with autodimming and 12 pin.
    IMG_20180428_175609070.jpg

    Installation is fairly straight forward and took some patients and a little bit of tinkering. Do yourself a favor and get the release tools:
    2018-09-29_15-47-41.jpg

    The mirror ordered was 60$ on ebay:

    Stock 12pin auto dimming pin out is shown here:
    IMG_20180929_130955434.jpg

    Homelink 10pin is here:
    IMG_20180929_130949037.jpg

    For people searching the interior rearview mirror wire colors below is a chart which I was never able to find on the boards here:

    Original 12pin | Homelink 10pin | Wire color
    3 Ground | 3 or 8 | Black/White
    6 12v ignition | 6 | Pink/Red
    10 12v constant | 10 | Blue

    You will need to slide down the white color square retention block on the connector after releasing it from the mirror to pull the connector cables out. Use the pin release tools in the smallest connector holes to release the pin. Then pull HARD to release; pulling out one pin and reinserting it into the other connector so you only have one cable exposed. You can do this with the battery connected or disconnect the battery and do all three at the same time.

    12pin and 10pin side by side

    The "block" shown in both connectors that hold the cable connectors inside the housing. Left white rectangular will need to pushed down by like 2mm and both sides to release the connector once the pin release tool is inserted.

    Release tool pushed all the way in

    Swap your wires with the above chart plug in your replacement mirror and enjoy the savings knowing that you didn't have to spend 140$ on a plug and play mirror. Remember that the smooth side of the cable connector always goes with it facing up.

    Next project will be to install the stock Tacoma Sport front diffuser

    I got my new boot and shifter installed! I’m really happy with the look and feel, it’s a nice upgrade.

    Great solution, if you want a deal PM me. I’ll give you a number to a guy there, gave me an awesome price I couldn’t refuse. Took an hour for me to install, but that’s cause I had to drive to ACE hardware for wire strippers. If you have push start, they have one 100% plug n play.

    So I picked this up 2 weeks ago, first new truck. Here’s a couple things beside the husky floor mats. And lift is sitting waiting on tires then the lift goes on. CB56103A-879C-432D-AAB9-02E45BDF9FB2.jpg9775FEB5-7110-4145-BE34-20471DCF9347.jpg60B4ABD9-9701-419E-BD8C-D19C8739D5AF.jpg

    Damn your killing me @Rooster OG. I wasn’t planning on buying anything more lately but now I see that sexy shifter and I want one. Where did you purchase that and does the boot come with any color stitching although I like the white. Livermore here!!!!

    Alright doll-face, c'mon and bore me!
    I see they don't rule out a manual transmission, but say "contact us". Any idea what that's about?
