Your unique mod on the 1st Gens

HID projector retrofit into the 5x7 housings! All parts from The Retrofit Source (used the Morimoto Mini D2S 3.0 as they have the shortest front to back dimensions). Also put on the Morimoto XSB Square Halos, which switchback from white to amber with my turn signals but kinda wish I hadn't bothered wiring them as they are 5000K and look... lame... next to my 4200K Osram nightbreaker bulbs. But the halos are nice and bright and pretty nice for setting up a campsite at night as they don't blind all your neighbors/you (as the HIDs would) and hardly have any current draw so you can run them for a long time. They are also nice as DRLs, but still wish they were 4200K not 5000K.

Before, ugly, low output:


After!! Bright, beautiful cutoff line, switchback halos.


These headlights are SOOO much better than stock. Driving at night is very enjoyable now

 

Aaaand my ARB bull bumper incandescent to LED blinker upgrade!

Used these: XSLULTRAA LED Ultra Strobe Head Surface Mount (Amber)

Though I bought them from http://www.hyper-lights.com/ same price though!

Before, lame incandescents that eventually leak and burn out and rust and are dim and... you get the point...


After: Nice and bright, didn't get hyperflash (I am assuming a previous owner changed out the relay or something...), won't rust!! I only had to use some washers to space these LEDs forward as they are super thin and the incandescent housings are huge.

 

damn, went to buy them and 80 bucks a set? ouch lol

 

Yeah, not cheap, but I managed to sell the incandescents for $20, so a little cheaper! But I really do love LEDs...

 

yea i love them too, been looking for something like this too for my ARB

 

You gotta have a mirror with a compass, tempture, auto dimming and a functional 4Runner hood scoop for the supercharger

 

Compass guage and outside temp guage???

 

What's in place of your instrument cluster??

 

Looks like a Garmin GPS.

 

Where did you find the mirror, how'd you hook it up?

 

Garmin Gps attached to the steering coulm and all wires hidden

 

Is a gentex mirror, had to run wires to the front of truck for the temp sensor and power wire down side post to under dash.
Fished wires through the head linier to the side PLASTIC post and ran wires behind the plastic post.
HAS compass, auto dim mirror, and temp for outside, buy them off eBay for 75.00 USED.

 

"Swirl painted" my dash and other interior pieces, paracord wrapped wheel, and custom shift knobs.

 

Galvanized steel frame

bye bye rust!

 

Found a spot for my tire deflators.

 

Welp stealing this.

 

Can we get a close up on the dash and steering wheel good sir?

 

Might as well post a couple more in here. Being the picture whore I am.

Bed exit exhaust(done b4 but still unique I think with the trim ring)


Led bolts in filler panels
And led bars In original signal spot.

 

are those eagle leds?

 

Yep yep
