Sold my 4R T.E. and made a friend in the process. My wish is that it brings him many happy years and a few hundred thousand miles of trouble free ownership. 36bound out.

...and here's a photo of the custom Wet Okele seat covers.

Here's an exterior photo of my TRAIL EDITION. I had attempted to post several photos but the photo of the safe in the console is all that accompanied my post.

Hi Gang, While giving my 2012 Trail Edition a good look-over I discovered what appears to be a dozen or so micro-sized (smaller than a pin head) spots of rust. At first I thought that they might be metallic dust from brake pads, but they are not on the paint; they are IN the paint. Generally...

I just received a full set (front/rear) of WOs. It took five weeks to have them made and to be delivered. Remember, they are semi-custom made per your specifications. I hope to put them on later today. I'll post pics as soon as they're installed.

Congratulations on the arrival if your new TE. Enjoy it and be safe.

For reasons of clarity I should probably be more specific with regard to the "Firestone Tires" I mentioned in my preceding post. To be more clear I have Firestone Destination A/Ts on my '12 TE with KDSS. These tires have been rated #1 on the Tirerack site for quite some time now. I agree with...

Personally, I'd ditch the notorious, underperforming OEM tires. Sounds like a simple case of hydro-planing to me. I've drove through heavy rains with Firestones on my '12 TE, even while pulling a camper, and traction/steering has not been an issue. No clicking sound observed so far with 3,500...

Regarding this rattling issue which I have not yet personally experienced; it sounds like it must originate with the lid, maybe once the springs lose a little tension? Seem like a few pieces of one-sided adhesive felt molded around the perimeter of the lip of the box should work. When your...

A mad genius is among us. I like it!:thumb3:

Brock, I was wondering if rattling would occur at some point. Would a few thin pieces of closed-cell foam padding (or something similar) strategically placed between the Console Vault and the console itself alleviate the dreaded rattling noise?

Okki, I have my hands full at home right now with a new pup and a wife who is recovering from a recent surgery, but I'll make an effort to post a couple photos tonight. I should also mention that the Console Vault also allows full access to the power outlet plug located in the console. It...

Guys, For those who have limited time and are unable to peruse the archives, just a quick post to apprise you about a security product marketed as a Console Vault. I ordered my Console Vault from the company's website and paid $254 for it. I went with the combination lock model rather than...

Thank you.
