I have a 2010 4Runner Trail, purchase last November. Just put on the Westin Step bars today. Instructions were not the greatest. Had to re-drill step bar mounting bracket holes because the bars were too low. Only had 8" of clearance, now I have 13" and they look better too. Just ordered the K&N CAI. I am getting 20 mpg City and 23 to 25 mpg Highway. This one is better than my 2003 Sport I had.
Tried to add pics but can't find proper way of doing it, any help would be appreciated.

Hi all, new owner of a 2011 Magnetic Grey with premium package. Been searching for a while, finally grabbed one off the lot. Love the color, love the truck so far.

5% over the rear stock tint, 20% in the front. I am unsure of the brand.

Sedona is awesome. We camp up north a lot, Sedona/Prescott is probably my favorite places to go.

Finally getting around to posting pics. I didn't do to much to it but its just the way I want it!
N-Fab step bars
Husky mats and cargo liner
Duratracs, stock size
White DRL's
Defiant short tube light bar with PIAA 520 ATP
Daystar switch for 520's
Rear wheel well storage
One red map light
I'm going to do a few more electrical mods (with help of course, I'm a nitwit.)
The only other stuff I may change someday is the exhaust to the side, and maybe even out the suspension.
Here's what it looked like just after I bought it and before I moved my stuff over from my '07 Sport-

Good looking rig! I really like your front light bar...was it an easy install and is it sturdy? I see you tight your kayaks to it...I travel with yaks a lot and this would be good. Also, does the bar give you different options where to mount the lights? I saw on the sight that you just specify 2 or 4 lights. Thanks!

Thanks! You would have to ask Defiant about light placement. I just specified how many and what kind of lights. I had one on my 4th gen too, and it was basically the same. They are great for tying down kayaks. Before I would have to tie them to the front recovery hooks, and the ropes would be rubbing the paint. Not anymore. However, it may not make much of a difference with shorter boats. These are 16.5 and 17 feet long.

Great...think I am going to pull the trigger this week. So, did you get the lights from Defiant as well? Sorry for the questions. And the install - easy?

I got the lights from eBay. The bar installation was simple, just labor intensive. You will need a long socket wrench or breaker bar to loosen the bolts under the truck . But it bolts right on, no problems. And its rock solid- the lights do not wiggle one bit!
The PIAA lights were also pretty easy to install. The harness is already set up, you just have to connect everything where its supposed to go.
