What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

I guess its tough to see but its the end of a CV shaft.

 

Welp, these pics just made me order some! 2 up front and 2 out back!

 

haha They're so small they will go pretty much anywhere. I think I'll pick two more up for the front as well. I just wish they made them with an amber film.

 

Haha nice! I have two out back and two n the mirrors. Work great.

 

I have green LEDs in my clear corners. Matches my green truck. I might go back to amber though.

I might be bugging you in the near future to let me know how you like it.
(I'm curious as to how the pandora works on those)

I've had my eye on that line (haven't settled on a specific model yet) for weeks now, plan on picking one up after Christmas.

 

I hated my kenwood. I thought the build quality was cheap and the features and sound quality were poor. I would look into Alpine or Pioneer if I was you.

 

agreed. Kenwood very cheap and sound is horrible IMO.

Pioneer is probably the best IMO

 

The JVC one I have (based on 45acp's purchase of the same unit) works great and was pretty cheap.

Streaming is flawless from my iPhone that runs Pandora, TuneIn, iTunes match, etc...

 

I use a Panasonic that has been the best head unit I've ever used for sound quality and adjustability, but lacks bluetooth features the new ones have. I still won't upgrade until I decide to put an ipad in the dash or something. I don't recommend them to people though because they are hard to find and not the newest technology anymore.

 

thats why i like pioneer. Awesome eq features and great quality. Wish mine hadn't gotten fried.

 

Yea I've kept up with your mirror build but I plan to plate parts of my bumper off and mount the 6lz as daytime/fog lights I can use at night since not to many people like the 21s anymore. Then mount the D2's up near the windshield somewhere for the distance throw over the 21s or 6lz's

 

people don't like the 21s

since when??

Not sure the D2s will really throw that much more. They do have optics unlike Blitzpros stuff so should help a bit i suppose.

 

washed my engine finally its nice and clean

 

I was thinking that also who doesn't like their 21s? D2's might have some more distance but wont have the spread, right.

 

will depend on the lens. Some are spot and some are flood. I have seen them and they are very very bright. But still arent a halogen spot light. Make epic fogs tho.

 

I ment people as in other oncoming traffic, never was an issue when I first got it but I think people flash now just to do it cause they stare at it lol & I cut it off when another car approaches but they still flash I only use It out near my house since I've only hit 3 deer this season so it's nice to have the extra light. & the d2's I studied a bit on a buddies jeep and they threw light well down an alley in town at least 65-80 yards but the ones I got are 8* spot beam & I'm highly confident after hooking them up and seeing them on trees in broad daylight 10-15' or so away that they will give that spot pattern out past the 21s and my headlights like I'm looking for.. But once I get the 2 6lz up front and d2's I'll be swapping the 21s for a different bar that's double row

 

oh they can all suck it haha

i drive with my LF240s at night..just use em like brights and flip them off when i see a car. Of course my head lights are pathetic so i don't get flashed after that..and boy oh boy if i do..

are you going to get like hood mounts??

 

Yea when I get flashed I try to cut all my lights on.. Lightbar, 7" hid Hellas and headlights but people are smart an wait till right before they pass me. Pricks!

& I'm not sure abt the mounts yet. I'm going to look into making some but if I decide it's not worth it then they'll go on either side of my winch behind some plate. Then I'll cut a hole for the 6lz in the rear bumper and figure something out for the 6lz on the front bumper but hopefully I can get the D2's on the hood/windshield. & they aren't legit rigids but exactly the same specs. 1260 lumens a piece but for $50 a piece only difference I noticed was the lack of the name being on the housing and it doesn't have a fancy connector and the mount doesn't have the cutout design thing going on... They just don't have a fancy name like D2's so idk what else to call them lol
