    Still need to find a nice dark area without street lights and such to really see what kind of area they light up

    Put a front leveling kit on my 2009 Tacoma today. Bed rails say I'm dead level! What do y'all think?

    How did you mount the lights to your shell? Was it a clean hole through the shell for the wires?

    Santa came early. 10" kickers and man they hit very well. The truck sounds nice. I left the factory amp, pictured, ran the sub wires from the amp to the LC2I. I replaced the door speakers about two weeks ago. The system sounds very good. Yes, I realize I need to get some shorter RCA cables. I modified the factory amp mount because it was integrated into the ends of the amp holding the board in place.

    Went out for a little drive and had some fun. Took a couple pictures for the kettle valley railway and Myra Canyon. Regretfully my main camera died about 10 minutes up the trail. Forgot my phone in the truck so only a couple pictures from the trail. but here is the ones I took with my Iphone.tacoma myra canyon.jpg Trail team logo.jpg Tressel fog tacoma.jpg

    Hey thanks, its @Pelfreybilt front and rear and i had both professionally line-x. The grill is the Rigid one only I had that line-x along with the chrome shroud. Made for a tighter fit and cleaner look I think...

    Yeah, I just drilled through the shell for the mounting holes and cable leads. Used some silicon on the back of the mount to keep water out.

    Carried my 15 Tacoma with 11,000 miles on it, into the Toyota House today with a copy of the Technical Service Bulletin, about the Front Differential Groaning/Grinding Cycling Noise. I carried them for a ride, pointed out the grinding noise at 40 mph, and it stopping with the 4x4 engagement, and restarting the grinding noise when 4x4 was dis-engaged. They set me up for next week to redo it with the modified bearings, and ordered the parts. They didn't say a word about the 3" lift, or 265 tires, they just apologized for the problems, and said that they would take care of it.:yay:....................................:mudding: 2222222222222222222222222222222222.jpg

    Finally got to install my bed lights tonight. Got the bed light set at Walmart for $20.00, so I'll update this post later if I have any issues with them. They are super bright and I've got them running off of a SPDT (on - off - on) switch in the dash. This way I can turn them on or off from the cab, and with the use of a pin switch in the tailgate they also come on automatically when it is opened. Thanks to several people on here that have written excellent write up's over the years.

    Here's the info from the package:

    I figured it was worth a shot for only $20.00. The info on the back is not correct because there are clearly 12 LED's per module, not 8.
