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

I've had really good results with the Natika cameras. Here are a couple configurations. The first one looks similar to the one you are replacing, but it is a much higher quality with a warranty.

Awesome Output but brave having so much wires in the engine bay.
Is the vehicle out of factory warranty?

 

The hood scoop is non-functional from the 80s.
Yet still catches attention

 

Especially when the sun hits it just right!

 

I sure hope you're joking about wires being in the engine bay. But if you're not, rest assure it will be okay, its all under the insulation and wrapped in 1/4 inch cord protector with a 5 amp fuse.

 

I'm hoping one of you kind folks can help me solve a slight wiring issue. I bought a MESO Puddle Switch Kit. It works fine (as in it will allow me to control turning on the puddle lights), but there is one thing that has been driving me nuts. It has an extended green wire that should be able to run off another green wire to illuminate it. I tapped into the rear wiper button and it's still not illuminating.

Button I'm referring to:



Instructions from website:



Tapped into green wire:



I know the first question is gonna be are you sure you put the connectors all on correctly. The answer is simply "yes." I've checked those. Again, I'm stumped.

Any idea would be greatly appreciated!

 

Looks amazing! I was wondering about the same exact mod since I will be primarily using my truck for fishing, it's nice to be able to know I don't need to replace the OEM TRD Pro rack to mount a "rac a rod" on the crossbar. Quick questions, I know you everyone had to remove the rack then delete, did you have to replace rack hardware with a brand new set?

 

Been working with a custom 3D printer for an idea I had. He sent me a prototype! Fits my vape, glasses, and parking pass

 

Ever since I installed my GMRS radio I’ve been looking for a solution to mount the mic without screwing a mount into the dash or using a mount with 3M tape stuck to the dash. So I had this idea and combined the Off Roam phone mount base (w/arm) and the ICS FAB mic mount, both use the 20mm ball. Worked out nicely and very secure.




I don’t know why my pics are always sideways, but you get the idea.

 

This thing is quality, much better than the OEM fob. Worth the $35.00 Just got mine.

 

I'm firing the TSV 18 also

 

Has anyone ever tried to stick something in between the hood and hood insulation to prevent the hood from jiggling or kinda bouncing up and down when going down the road?

 

Power outlet cover flip

 

Another idea if anyone want to use the 3M tape -

 

More fun with the Plasti Dip today.

 

@playdixie damn I feel your pain, I had frustrating issues tapping into fog light wiring for new sequential bezels. Where you follow the instructions but some things don't work right. Wondering if you've used a multimeter on the t tap after crimping to the green. In my case, I had taps that were locked but actually didn't make good enough contact for continuity. Good luck, I'm interested

 

Take off the hood insulation and fill as many gaps between hood sheet metal and support ribs with polyurethane caulking.

@playdixie for me everyone in every video (with 5th gen T4R's) tapped to the yellow wire, so I knew it should be correct. In your case, green seems to be correct right. Check ur connections with multimeter to rule out

 

Oohh! I'm interested in this. If you need someone else to test, I volunteer.

 

This is the guy I got it from. You can see if he will make more

Stopped raining enough for me to put the new wipers on (snowing this AM!).

 

Got alpharex red smoke tail lights today.

 

They look fantastic on the Barcelona...

 

I do like them better in person. Was iffy just watching vids and pics

 

bad ass!

 

Those look sharp on there! Which ones did you get?

 

Thanks. They're the red smoke tail lights.

 

Swapped in some SS5s from Colton at Hotshot Offroad

 

Added an AC outlet to my center console. Sometimes when traveling my wife uses her laptop and instead of carrying an inverter, extra cord, etc this seemed like a nice option.

 

Nice. You got a write up on how to do this?
