    Ok so those of you that installed switches in your dash, where did you tap into for the switch to light up when your dash lights turn on? Thanks

    What rims are those? Where did you get them from? I want all black rims for my taco but I want to be able to have the Toyota logo/ caps on them. Yours are perfect! Nice looking truck too

    If youre a double cab and have the bed light I believe its the green wire coming off that switch. There is a good writeup in the 30" light bar install thread

    I used a relay under the hood. Pin 85 and 87 will go to 12 volts, pin 30 is output to the light and pin 86 is ground in from switch to turn relay on. The switch has 4 leads two wires are for illumination for the switch and two wires for light activation. I ran a single wire from the relay to the switch then grounded the the other two and hooked the remaining wire to the illumination circuit. I grabbed all the wires from the cargo light switch wiring.

    I love the MGM too. I've been wanting to get a new tacoma for a while and the MGM is what I had my eye on but as soon as that inferno came out I knew it was for me. The steps are body armor side rails http://amzn.com/B005W35V0E. I like the predators but I needed the steps for my 4 year old and they looked vicious. These are pretty heavy duty especially for the price. I am happy with my decision and the kid loves them.

    Thanks. I've been trying to figure out which direction I wanted to go with the grill. I have to say, that looks great. This might be the route I go also.

    - Transmission fluid check: 3/4qt low (did not have any symptoms...truck has 1200mi and drives great)
    - Front and rear diffs: about 1/4 qt low each
    - Rear diff relocate to bed cubby
    - torque Ubolts to 52, we around 30ish I think

    Love this forum! It has taught me a lot and love tinkering with the truck. Now just need those clazzo seat covers and upgrade the speakers and I'll be set.

    Hey bros I got that Carista app and have a question. I don't want the interior lights to dim during the day as much Also I want them to come back on as fast as possible.

    I don't know what the settings mean, Can you help? I don't want it to dim constantly during the day. Which of the sensitivity options is best?

    DARKEST / DARKER / NORMAL / LIGHTER / LIGHTEST

    To restore fast after dim which sensitivity option is best?

    DARKEST / DARKER / NORMAL / LIGHTER / LIGHTEST

    Thanks!

    Ham radio antenna,Firestone Ride-Rite air spring Snug Top topper, and a rifle rack y'all ..Moroso Catch Can, De-badged.
    De-badged my Snugtop, the window decals pretty much just wiped off, and since it was toasty warm today the two rubber Snugtop side badges came off fairly easy too. I'm still up in the air about removing the V6 tailgate badge. I sealed both bed stow boxes, drain holes and hinge slots with Gorilla tape to minimize dust getting in. Looks a lot tidier now..
