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

Normally don't care for the bronze-colored wheels but those sure do look good on that green!

 

Added the extension housing to my JLT catch can. It’s pretty small in diameter so a little oil seems like a lot. I just wanted piece of mind.

 

As mentioned by @Lockdown does anyone know of any "proven solutions out there for wireless carplay"?
Remember my post is for 2014-2019 4runner headunits.

Would be nice to give Mrs Apple carplay option for her 2019 Limited with JBL.

 

Hey @j4unner @semprenissart @5six
I noticed that my auto-dimming mirror is always dim even in the daytime.

It’s due to how I mounted my Garmin mini high up on the windshield and it obscures the mirror’s forward facing photocell, so it behaves as if it’s in night mode. So I press the off button if I want to disable this during the day.
Something to be aware of.

 

I'm considering buying this...

what spring rate are in the fronts?

 

you mean hiked the driver side for the lean?

 

I turned off the Eco light, I feel free!!! Like driving another truck

 

ooops yes!

 

I don't believe the TSO is as deep.

 

New bumper!!

 

Whole new front end installed today. Bumper, winch, light bar, raptor lights, fog covers, and pro grill. Busy day.

 

How about some sexy Blackout kit photos! Awesome fit for aftermarket!

mine doesn’t seem to be affected so far. Maybe try to move the location slightly?

 

You named your rig after a pastry??

 

Ha! I wish, it’s a long long story but the kids name our cars.

 

I hadn’t noticed the dimming issue with my original mounting position (circled in red, still have to remove that stuck in mount). I ended up moving it because I wasn’t capturing enough of the passenger side.

 

that the same area i have mines mounted.. as center as you can behind the mirror..

 

I wish I could move it up just a bit, as I can see the red light when I drive … annoys me. I have some OCD issues.

 

lol! i am the same way too, i moved it up after noticing the red light driving the first time.. so not it sits perfectly and I don't see the light..

 

Just curious - what is the point of having a camera? To protect oneself in case of an accident? Any other uses? Thanks!

 

How wide angle is your camera?

I mounted mine on the passenger side (with slight angle to the center). It's wide angle enough it pretty much captures everything on both sides.

 

I am the same, I wanted to completely hide mine so I don't see any lights or anything from my POV as a driver. It has worked well so far.

That's my primary goal. I've heard horror stories about people lying when they were at fault and I would jsut rather not have to deal with it. If you're not at fault you just provide the footage to the insurance and so the other party cant even put a small amount of blame on you.

As a bonus, if I drive somewhere nice or see something cool on road and/or off road I can save the footage and keep it.

Stuck at home for 2 days so far

 

I feel your pain. BTDT. Hope the power comes on sooner than later.

 

Luckily, I was able to get out today to go the bank and Wally World. But still covered in ice. Took a few mins to get ice melted. I really need to invest in a remote start. But for now, doing it the old fashioned way.



And while at Walmart, this fella was parked nearby:

 

that bumper is sick!!!

 

I know this is a 4Runner forum, but this Jeep gives me a stiffy.
