What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

Can you provide details on the harness issue you mentioned? I have not heard of this but want to educate myself for the future.

 

Well this POS lasted about five minutes until the adhesive tape gave way and let go. So I used the better 3M adhesive tape. I'll let it set up all night before I put any weight on it. If it doesn't hold then I guess I'll return it. This is the only place I put it that doesn't bug me. I'll have to make it work somehow or I'll probably have to trade in the 4Runner.

 

Use that forward cupholder, perfect for the cellphone

 

I have a holder that sits in there and works great.

I have a tendency to use the cupholders for drinks.

 

Good thing there is 2 of them

 

One for my coffee tumbler.... One for my cold tumbler.... I actually use both.

It's going back anyway. Just won't stick to the side. I'll figure something else out.

Ordered these RAM Mounts instead.

Bought one. I couldn't wait till 2020
I'll have to get more pics, it rained most all day!

 

Congratulations & welcome from Nebraska!
I love your color combo. You got the black roof rails, the beautiful white with the gray wheels.
Not sure why I like the gray wheels (over the black) so much more! I am glad they came on ours also.

Good luck not going poor from mods.
I want our build done! It never ends & we have only had it 3 months!
If you are going to build it; please start a thread! I would love to see it.
Congratulations again!

 

Laptop mount...?
I thought it was for your phone?

On a side note. A family friend is a private pilot (owns a personal plane). He has a velcro strap that he used to use for his Ipad.
It would just velcro around his left leg & he could see all air traffic & a lot more (5 yrs ago).
He is currently building another so this will likely be obsolete.
For us, using an old iPad with velcro may be a great idea for paths etc.
Any pilots on here?

 

I’m eyeing a black SR5 with the grey TRD wheels at my local dealership. Just cloth seats but has the roof rack and rails...Pretty good price...And I’m sure it will be even cheaper in a few short months...

 

We weren't set on leather (vinyl).
However after thinking about cleaning & the sunroof. We had to spend the extra $2k for the ORP premium & got both!

 

Well, I’ve rarely used the sunroof. Except for standing out of riding down the rode after a bachelor party years ago. It’s caulked shut now. And I like the SR5 and the simplicity of it over all....

 

Not knockin your choice.
Just making sure you were aware.
Buy what you want & like (especially if you know what you want). I bet it won't stay stock for long anyway!
Go buy it & love it.

 

Well, is the 2020, going to be an awesome Olive drab like real Army green? Or a sharp, crisp, Hunter green, I don’t really like?

 

^^

I really like the gray wheels on both rigs above. If I didn't have trail wheels, I would go with those.

 

Not sure if this is the exact color or a photoshop.

 

It’s a photoshop, I saw this on TW a while back. The guy that did it doctored a Barcelona red taco.

 

Now I see the red around the edges. Thanks for confirming

 

Pretty sure that's mislabeled as their laptop mounts are way more expensive. This seat bolt mount will work with their phone holders and their tablet holders.

Those wheels are sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!! Very cool!

 

FINALLY dropped in my AIRAID cool air intake with spacer and Gibson exhaust.....ROOOOAAARRRRR with black ceramic tips also installed my AVS window Visors as well.

I am sure everyone has seen pics of an air intake LOL...I will take some pics of my girl and the exhaust when I can get around to washing her up a lil.

 

They have these. You can even get an inflatable bladder for it if it doesn't fit snug.

275/55/20 32 inch tire

 

Looks great!

I'm far too lazy to do all that to mine. I hardly ever even feel like washing it.

 

Installed some VHF/UHF comms.
Not thrilled with the location, but it works. Wanted it in the center dash at the bottom, but there isnt enough depth.
Pretty sure it will fit in that useless tray in front of the shifter. But Im afraid I wouldnt be able to hear it well enough then.
The Tram hood mount worked well for the antenna, was going to do a roof mount, but didnt want to worry about it hitting things, and taking it off to get in the garage.

 

That’s a nice little compact radio. Thinking about getting a Kenwood. Right now I just use a HT.

 

Radio is an AnyTone AT-778UV

 

Ditto just got mine delivered and installed today. So far so good.
