    Blacked out badges, window deflectors, smoked 3rd brake light. I have a Borla muffler on order as well as some color matched engine cover stickers. I'll be painting the stock wheels soon as well. Falken tires in the fall as well.
    Yeah the Nautical Blue really pops, I'm glad I held out and finally found one.Level1.jpg

    Same question here... Does the side exhaust help with departure angle?

    Normally I would think yes, but those are really prominent exhaust tips…

    Depends on your wheeling style, they usually get crunched with anything moderately rocky.

    Installed a Scangauge II yesterday, it's always fun tearing apart the dashboard. Great information from this little thing. How accurate is the horsepower number do you think?

    This might seem like a dumb question so I apologize in advance, but does the handle impact any visual scope of the driver?

    I'm in love with your 4runner. It looks really badass. I originally wanted a MGM OR, but couldn't pass up the deal I got with my Black Betty. Please don't tell her :oops:

    This is the Gibson, but I am not a big fan so far. Looks ok, but has a little annoying sound at low speeds. No drone or anything...but just different. I kept the stock one under my bed in case I need to put it back. I was used to the TRD pro on my Tacoma. But will see..I might get rid of it and just keep the quiet.

    Nope. I can't tell any difference. This system is smaller than the stock one. Looks ok but I am not thrilled to be honest.

    Well damn it. I pulled forward too far in my parking garage and bumped my lower valance area. Since this is a lease, I guess I'm going with a stock part to cover it. I just need to find a TRD Pro lower valance. I guess I could go all in and go with a lo pro from bumper but then if I want to sell it then I might have issues. I might just plastidip it and if it sucks then I can go with the TRD Pro valance. I'm a moron.

    Can you expand on what you have going on on the steering wheel? A fix for the extremely annoying peeling maybe...?

    As someone once said, "It's the little things that count. Put the mountain decals (thanks to forum member MyWyfsRnnr) who set me up with them. Love the look and although I'm not completely sure I think they actually increased the off-road capabilities of my 4R by .0000231%. :rofl:

    Thanks for the vid! Now I don’t have an excuse not to do it. Question...it’s the regular USB port by the shifter right? Not some hidden thing in the head unit?

    Didn’t wanna start a new thread but can’t really find the answers…sorry

    I have a blue sea fuse box with ground n all that…hooking up external lights, probably my comms n my dual compressor

    what EXACTLY do I need to hook up to battery n what not?
    Thicker wires, relays, disconnects, etc

    I know this is vague but that’s cause I’m horrible with terminology n not sure what ?’s to really ask yet

    but to stay true to thread recently repainted n installed sliders(alone with horrible tools n on a hot rocky driveway, H11-H9 swap, DrKDSS sway bar toggle guy, fixed ultimate camping mod n rebuilding shower with pressure regulator

    Now eject seat button enables on the menu.. :p:p

    Items with this update-
    • Apple CarPlay does not start immediately after connecting iPhone.
    • Intermittent Radio Rebooting.
    • Tune knob doesn’t change the track in all audio sources.
    • Music does not resume when changing the volume, and the audio source is paused.
    • Incorrect FM and XM genre information.
    • Blower motor mode does not match the actual blower mode.

    Yes its the regular USB port. Super simple.

    Just make sure the engine is running before you start the update. I don't know if its a TRD Pro/Limited JBL thing after some time the headunit turn off to save the battery. Haven't notice it on my SR5/TRD ORP. Keep the engine running would be a safe bet. It only takes about 10minutes.
