    Gah damnit, I bought some new grill clips and now that I’m almost done they have magically disappeared. I’ve looked for an hour for them. I hate that so much. I guess I’m going to call Toyota in the morning and see if they have any.

    I know how that feels

    I had some dash leds I waited a month or so for to ship than lost them within an hour of getting them, still haven't found them... almost sure my cat hid them in the couch or under the fridge

    My grill stayed in for years with just 2 clips, last time I had to take it off they Brooke and zip ties worked well.

    Usually my plan is zip tie and figure out a proper solution later. Years pass, still mostly zip ties.

    Grill is done, figured the adhesive can finish curing on the truck.

    Yeah, the whole damn state’s on fire. We are preparing an evacuation box today, not that we are in danger right now. But with the way things are going it’s better to be safe than sorry.

    I'm in Colorado, but my Mom who lives on the Concord/Clayton border says she sees my truck occasionally. Now I think I know who shes talking about...
