    Installed these guys last night. Pretty easy installation, and actually look nice when turned on, at a decent price too.

    Took a couple of videos, but can't figure out how to upload them. Posted a link to them below. The video on the site is pretty accurate though.
    Edited to state that the blinkers were very well packaged and included a philips screwdriver and a pry tool in the box. I had actually ordered the pry tool separate not realizing they were included.

    Is this on stock suspension? Also if you don't mind me asking, about how much did it run you?

    A GEICO adjuster told me you need to get a supplement to cover any addons and upgrades but if it's a genuine Toyota upgrade you might be able to get away without it.

    I paid $650 Cdn 2 years ago. It is most likely cheaper in the US. This fits on stock suspension. It is a fairly easy DIY mod. I was fortunate that the only distributor for this product was only 1 hr drive away from where I live in SW Ontario.

    Oh nice, not bad at all. My current setup has a good constant load on the rear end, causing a good amount of sag, so this might be a good option. Either that or a full leaf replacement for the Icon RXT

    I prefer the lift provided from the progressive coil springs and adjustments can me made of your load changes.

    Yeah, that is exactly the reason I was looking into the ICONs, they made it so you can swap out certain leafs for varying heights/weights.
    Now I just have other options to look into. Thanks a bunch!

    I would agree if he was at fault. However the other driver hit him and their insurance is responsible for making him whole. He needs to make sure their insurance covers everything including reduced resale value. If not, time for an attorney.

    Exactly what I was looking for. But they only sell them in pairs. I guess I can keep the second one around for flexibility, but I'm trying to stop collecting $*** I don't need or use! It seems to just grow.....

    Autozone. You're not buying a battery, you're buying a warranty. Batteries last on the average 48 months. Anything past that will be borrowed time. Autozone has 36 months free replacement, with additional 24 months pro-rated. Not much better out there. If you find one it will cost you.
    (now here comes the guys with the war stories of 17 years with a battery they bought for $29.99 and it's a Interstate 1500CCA) LMAO

    Costco sells interstate batteries, that what I run in my challenger, my wifes truck and what my dad runs in all his cars. Interstate is great when it comes to warranty, they even look past out of warranty batteries and still warranty them :) We used to run all optima batteries because I used to get them for free (I would pick up junk ones from the parts store, then warranty claim them with optima)

    costco has the 24f AGM battery listed at $150

    I got one the other day that had "I was in a stripper" written on it. I felt like I won something. I'm keeping it.

    50% of the batteries in the US are made by Johnson Controls in Mexico. Some are made in Spain and India now too. Interstate, Optima, Advance, Autozone, Walmart and most of the others are all the same. That's why I said you're buying a warranty. LOL.
    Other batteries out there are okay, but remember this;
    When you're stuck in Crustbutt West Virginia, on a Sunday afternoon, wife yelling and bitching, kids crying, dog puking, you want to be able to warranty the battery. Most brick and mortars have at least 3,000+ stores across the Country to go to.
    (now comes the guy with the 7,000 ah, 4.2MW, 12 week reserve capacity AGM Odyssey battery) Good luck on Sunday with that shit. LOL.
