    I've been commuting with mine all week. It did a heck of a job, hauling home a big ol' pumpkin pie this afternoon. :^)

    I have had Alpharex lights in storage for a year because I have been too lazy to swap them but I think I will during this 4 day weekend.

    So no bank will call when your 4Runner shows up at SEMA 2025?

    Added 4 TuRD logos to the 4Runner with FJ center caps, P/N PT904-35070-CC. Despite posts such as this one and that one saying they fit without modification, in my case a lot of cutting was needed to fit, by about 3/8" around the entire perimeter. Maybe there was a design change in the caps. If I had known they were this much work, I would've never ordered them from my dealer :bananadead:
