DIY Rear Cargo

I always carry a lot of gear and tools with me everywhere I go. I attempted a homemade drawer build on my old 3rd Gen that was eventually turned into a $450 campfire.

Ended up going this route in our new 5th Gen. It’s pretty low profile, and by not having drawers I saved a good bit of money. Drawers would have been nicer, admittedly. But I only spent $215 on the project and I’m happy with it. I had a limited budget to work with and I created something useful with what I had. Win, win!

But now the sub has vibrated loose several other parts of the car...
Yea the black mustache part. It was easy, one bolt under the pull strap, then pull on the door panel all the way around until the push pins come out. Remove one of the speakers and fish your hand inside to find the loose nut(s) and tighten them back up.

This, plus about 10 good cuts on my hand. Must buy gloves.







Made a cover for the terminal block. Think that turned out well.

Need to run the three power cables tonight then hope it works.

After that, running wires for my compressor and various lights.

Not actually today but last weekend. I put on the MESO Customs steering wheel overlay. It looks OEM, I really like it. I also started on my cargo storage project. Hope to be done this upcoming weekend with pictures to share.

Not really something I did TO the Runner but something to make it easier to do things. This should make washing, waxing, putting stuff up there, etc. easier for this old man lol. With a 20% coupon it's well worth it.

Installed an Ecotechne roof rack

I am digging this rack from Ecotechne. Low profile and clean look. Very minimal nose on the freeway as well. I was cruising around 90mph for at least 10 miles and the wind noise was very low.

Fiberglass subwoofer box

Sooo I know I could just buy a factory subwoofer for my 5th gen but that’s no fun. I decided to build a custom box.

KC Highlights Installed

Put in some KC highlights under the hood to make up for Toyota not installing any lights to see the engine compartment. Night and day difference, worth the cost.

Try a piece of weatherstripping to fill in that gap between the roof and the rack. It'll be even quieter.

Replacement Booths Ball Joints

Replaced upper and lower boots on 100k miles, just preventive measure. Old wasn't torn, but inside wasn't much grease. Wiped old grease and filled with my favorite Red Lucas.

Yes, thank you! Ordered some on Amazon. I imagine it will be near silent now!

The TRD Pro rack isn’t completely useless! It would be nice if the cross bars were modular though.

Drilled a couple holes in the crossbars, used 1/2” 13 3.5” stainless bolts, some washers and spacers, and locking Hi Lift knobs. Need to get a 1/2” longer bolt to use the Hi Lift knob on the rear, but here is the result for now
