What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looking like that, you pulled it off

 

For $30, I felt it was worth a shot. I worked very slowly with a heat gun and razor blade. I got the entire bottom edge separated and started working up the side when this happened:



Add one more to the failed list. :/

I think I would have done better if I baked the whole assembly.

 

Damn, another one bites the dust. Maybe I'll bake mine same temp as a headlight maybe?

 

I mounted my new front camera yesterday, it took much longer than I expected but I’m pleased with the results. Now I just have to wait for my new headunit to arrive and then I’ll finish up all the wiring.

 

The plastic is really soft, I’d use a lower temp. You can always slowly increase if needed. Just don’t want to see you with a blob of melted plastic.

 

True that

 

I am sO glad Ohio nix'd front license plates.....

 

Lucky

 

Unfortunately Washington still requires them. Also the truck came with the bracket installed so I left it on for now because I don't want to look at holes in my bumper. I just see it as an excuse to upgrade to a aftermarket bumper down the road haha

 

I kind of screwed up the install on the drivers side...maybe in the future add an extra Crimp Nut or two! LOL

 

Alright, someone find a way to get a group by or discount set up for TW members on an Ultra Sonic Knife like @MESO uses. I just can't bring my self to spend the $500 or so but I contantly have use for one it seems

 

Yes, you can move it anywhere along the bed.

 

Are you trying to disassemble the gauge cluster plexiglass?

 

Maybe:

 

Softtopper came in.

 

Looking good!


One small detail. The rail alignment pic in the instructions is for a 2nd Gen that doesn't have our aluminum header rail. It is sort of a deceptive pic, but the ST can be moved forward a scosche, if you want less gap?

 

I had to delete the entune app and restart the truck. Only way I could get it off. I unlinked it from the app and it did nothing.

 

This sticker just cracks me up. Had to get one.

 

Yes, to paint the inside trim

 

Added a little vintage TRD stripes from Taco Vinyl. Clean and simple
