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

I'd offer that guy $60 and see if he takes it.

That rear compartment is useless. The only time I ever touched it was to paint it.

The cup holder tabs is a $2 mod.


I paid $55 for mine.

 

Last night a buddy and I put in lights behind the grille and changed the amber bumper lights to clear!


clear bumper lights

Grille back on

lights on

all lights on!

I'll post some pictures of what the lights look like in the day later!

 

Will this also work to correct the hyper-blink I have from doing the fog light mod??

 

I have to many kids that ride int he back, they would break that off in just a few minutes and I would in turn be pissed at them.

I got time, plenty of projects to do right now while I wait for the right deal.

 

What LED's are these? They look bigger than the ones I got for mine.

 

Well here are more pictures! and my TW sticker mod


Day time lights behind grille

 

Already put this in my thread, but I figured I'd show everyone

Tried to replicate (as best I could) on a CAD software the FrontRunner mounting rails since they no longer make them and sent the .dxf cut files to JLee at B.A.M.F. I'm getting him to cut the main piece and then I will weld on the tabs and any other mounting points I need to the main frame that will be CNC'd. Here is a mock-up of a basic rack on the roof rack rails. There are a few parts not shown in the picture (feet, side mounts, etc), but you get the point. Also I slightly changed the design from the first picture to the picture with the rack. Hopefully, in the end, this rack will be a little more low profile that the FrontRunner one. I just hope that it functions as good as their design.

 

A little tiny bit but since it is such a tight space behind the grille and some tubes in front of the radiator, the lights are tilted up a little so mostly go right over it

 

Yeah, I've got 700s behind my grill and they're block a bit from the Bezel but it doesn't seen to effect the light

 

Yeah exactly. And these aren't the best lights ever because I only had ~2 inches to work with between the radiator and grille. So found some on eBay that are 1.5 inches thick haha

 

Very interested

 

Garnet, you know where he got this right?

 

Where?

 

You can always put HIDs in.

Damn i didn't realize there was so little space behind the pre 01, i had just enough room to fit Hella 700 behind mine. I forget how thick they are but well over 2".

Looks good though!

 

Got jealous of Box's FrontRunner rails, so I thought I'd give it a shot and make my own. He's got great ideas, what can I say?

 

Hint hint...

Check his sig...^^^^

 

I'm not knocking you building your own. It's all good. Project.Paradigm bought one of my bedracks. (actually just sent it a couple weeks ago). Just didn't know if he was aware I had that rack.
