    Yeah it looks fine with one light, I might repaint the stupid piece with this rusto hammered stuff and then color match over it. I got so frustrated with it. I repainted my grille emblem today, installed LCA skids and painted the front skid (well, one side of it)

    Well you got more done than me. I can't decide what I want to do with my money now. Save up more for a rear bumper, work on a front from @EddyRRT or do all the other stuff like OBA and a storage system and that stuff.

    Wish I could have decisions like those! Mine are more like: pay my cc bills or save up for more skids. Money has been tight for a while but I like where she's at and she gets the job done, plus more!

    fixed my sunroof..well at least back to normal
    had a problem last week where sunroof wouldn't open or close without holding the button
    then yesterday she was back to normally opening with one touch
    is there a code or sequence to make this happen?

    I take it you unplugged your battery recently?

    If so just cycle it open and closed like 5 times

    So i just held the button

    But if it can be swapped to do one touch and and hold button
    That would be awesome

    What you do is hold the open button til it opens all the way, then hold close til it closes then opens up to the vent position. Then hold open til it goes all the way back. That should recalibrate the auto function

    Hold the button as it opens, hold it as it closes then goes to the vent. Hold the button as it opens again til it stops, then press closed and it should just shut by itself

    Drove it to see Godzilla. Tried unsuccessfully to install a 2014 Tacoma Entune head unit into my 4runner the other day.

    The Tacoma unit is too big to fit in the dash opening. It plugged in and bolted up just fine, but when it came time to put the dash surround back one, it did not fit. Sucks too because it had some nice features. Looks like Im back to searching for the Nav extension to add to the scion unit I already have.

    it hung over about 1/2" on the bottom and about 1/4" on the sides. I really wasnt looking to cut my dash though. Doesnt matter anyways, its already been sold lol.

    What do those cam gussets look like exactly? My cam tabs (tabs on frame that hold the LCA on) are kinda mangled and folded over

    I'm having a set of those cam tab gussets put on this week, as well as the coilover tower gussets. I'll see if I can snap some good pictures for you Alex.
