OEM stereo from my 3rd gen SR5. It's in good condition cosmetically. The FM/AM radio an all associated functions such as preset stations, seeking/tuning works, but I never used the cassette or the CD player, so can't comment on those. The lights almost never worked, except for one night when...

Where did you buy the Samsung LEDs from?

Put in Weathertech Universal AVM mats After looking at the used market for vehicle specific Weathertech mats, I decided to buy the cheaper AVM mats. I got them from Costco Online (membership not required) and got 4 pieces and a cargo mat for $75 shipped. Pretty good deal IMO. I only had to...

Hmm that’s interesting! I’ll try it out Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, I can see it in person, and I put a white LED in it. I also got LEDs for the map lights and the light output was less than the stock bulbs. I couldn’t believe it since everyone else had such great results Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did the upgrade last week, using amber bulbs from super bright leds. It’s not as great for me as some of the pictures posted here as there are hot spots and it’s not really that bright, but if anyone is wondering how the amber looks, see pictures. I actually put an LED in the hazards but...

LED dash update and new head unit I did a couple of things over the past week. I set out to change all the green in the instrument cluster and dash to amber. I got amber LED bulbs using the guide found on the forum here. I got them from superbrightleds. The bulbs fit fine, but tbh... I'm...

Hi, did you end up doing the tap kit? My transmission pan (2000 SR5 4x4) is also stripped, along with the drain plug. A transmission shop told me that these pans have a welded bolt on the inside of the pan and if the plug is stripped, the bolt is probably stripped as well, and he can't tap the...

Hi, Apologies in advance for another thread asking for tire recommendations. I have a stock 2000 SR5 4x4. The previous owner put Michelin XLT A/S about 48k miles and 4 years ago. The tread on them is around 4/32 right now and I'm about to go on a 5k mile trip and with winter already here, I...

No, I have a 2000

Replace ashtray with something useful Is there a mod for replacing the ashtray with a cubby of sorts? I don't need the ashtray and would like to use the place to store items or a place to keep my phone in.

Hi, I'm looking to buy Husky/Weathertech all-weather mats for front, passenger and cargo area for my 2000 SR5. At nearly $300, they are too expensive for me brand new, and I'd rather put the money toward other things for the truck, so I'm looking to see if any of the members here are looking to...

I had to remove the skid plate in order to do an oil change a few weeks ago. Removal was easy for me. It was 4 bolts - one of them was a different size, must be something the previous owner did. The skid plate has hook like things toward the front of the car so you have to wiggle it a little...

Refinished the wheels on my 2000 The wheels on my 4Runner were corroded and very discolored. The previous owner didn't really care for them much. This past weekend I decided to try refinishing them. I watched a few videos and decided that I'd follow these steps: - Pressure wash - Sand with a...

Rusty nut wins Check engine light came on yesterday and it was a P0136. Armed with a new O2 sensor and WD-40 rust penetrant, I slid under the truck on a Brooklyn side street, hoping for a quick swap. Many deep breaths and two hours later one of the nuts persevered and I had to call it a day. I...
