    I could use your help identifying this item pictured below in this 2002 4Runner. It is near the driver's side area fuse box to the left of the brake pedal. Please let me know if you can identify it. Thank you.

    None. Bone Stock. EXCEPT: Brushguard, tow hitch, both welded to the frame. It's good to have friends and a fully equipped garage!
    Sure looks like an after market, in-line fuse holder to me. I don't have one in my 99, I'm almost certain. I've been down there adjusting the clutch pedal, and I saw nothing even close to that.

    If you figger it out, let us know. I'm curious, now :)
