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

Just put on some Desert Does It front/rear seat jackers w/ multi mount panel

 

I really wish we could add this to the 21’s

 

That is so awesome...!! I wish I could have this vs the utter useless clock taking that space. I would select fuel range on that screen and may be mpg as the next parameter.

 

Wait till that clock is off with the one on the screen….

 

The only thing I've cleaned the wheel with is those Armor All cleaning wipes. I haven't touched the wheel with sanitizer.

 

Has Armor All changed their formula recently? In the Chrysler forums I frequented when I had my 300 and the Autogeek detailing forum, users were strongly encouraging folks to stay from Armor All to avoid potential cracking down-the-road. Hence, I've only used a mix of gentle soap and water to clean and then Aerospace 303.

 

• Visit to the dealer to get the post-lift headlight re-adjustment. I totally forgot about getting this step done (sorry about that the other night, local peoples). I could have done the adjustment myself (the procedure seems pretty simple), but thought I would leave it to the professionals and since it was included with the package.
  
  
• Ordered the Rago molle solution for the rear, sides of the center console, and on the dash clock shelf. Chose Rago over Victory since the install is less intrusive and Rago gives you more surface real estate. FYI they have a blemish sale going on, so if you don't mind imperfections - you can save a few bucks.

..and as a side bar, visit to the bike shop to get the 2 wheeler tuned up.

 

Well, still chemicals. I have heard from industry professionals that all these simoniz, armor all and such actually hurt the surfaces. I was told just a clean cloth with a touch or warm water.
I was quite skeptical, but this is how i clean my vehicles now and it seems to be doing an awesome job.
Sorry to hear about that, hard to fix.

 

I used to use armor all in the past but stopped using them because these chemical started to fade the plastic much faster. It gives shine when I apply them but after few days the plastic gave much dull look.

 

I've only been using the cleaning wipes, but not the polish. I don't like a shiny, slippery interior. I'll discontinue using it. I've tried using baby wipes in the past, since those shouldn't have harsh chemicals. I found some surfaces shred those wipes though.

 

Same! I stopped using Armor All years ago due to the long term effects I was seeing on treated vs. non-treated areas. I switched to Meguiar's D17001 Hyper Dressing (since it was advertised as a water based solution) - just for the tires when they need a pick me up.

 

Swapped on some Ridge Grapplers

 

I convinced my friend to buy one too. He wanted a limited.
Had it camping again last weekend. Another weekend, another provincial park.

 

had a few minutes and installed the MESO Ultimate Dome Light excellent quality product now just waiting on the Map Light set

 

Installed carbon fiber overlays on the dash and steering wheel!

 

Replaced the front 6x9s today. Pulling and putting the door panel back on wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. As many have mentioned, the key is leaving that weather stripping attached to the door. Sounds pretty clean now as well. I put killmat all over the inner part of the door panel and I really like how solid the door feels now when I close it vs. before, it sounded so tinny and light.

 

Can’t decide on storage systems we thought we liked two drawers under the fridge and didn’t like how it worked out for us. Then built a custom cabinet set and it’s good but still wanting flexibility so now…… we just ordered more slides, more materials and some front runner storage boxes. Either mine or hers is getting re outfitted.

 

I have been looking for these for quite some time ! Always OOS!
Could you please take some pics with the rear hatch open ? And when you get the map lights, definitely take some pics !

 

This is one up grade I’ve been to intimidated to do

 

Actually, it wasn't hard at all. Doing his turn signal mod was 3x harder haha the scariest part is taking out the gauge cluster but it really wasn't that bad

 

I like it

 

Lost my front license plate and mount on the trail on Sunday. Figured I might as well move to Florida where they only have one plate.

 

I like that a lot. Are the parts and harness still available for purchase?

 

Any photos of the 'after' door panel?

 

Unfortunately, probably not. I think OldRed is all out of them at this point and the connectors are getting harder to find so I'm not sure he's making any more.

 

After? Can you explain? It looks the same before taking off the panel.

 

Move to North Carolina. We only have one plate and close to some decent trails.

 

The inside of the door panel with the killmat applied. I didn't figure the outside looked any different. Thanks.

 

Which crossbars are those?

Makes it a 2Runner?
