Thanks guys for the feedback! Very helpful.

here are some pics...

Hey guys, I'm moving out of the country and need to sell my 4Runner. Wanted to get your feedback on whether you think the price (including custom upgrades) I'm asking for is reasonable. Here is the ad I've already posted: 2008 Toyota 4Runner SR5 2WD V6 - 34k miles - Galactic Grey - in...

just got my windows tinted today. 20% on the rears and 50% on the fronts. part of me is curious if i should've gotten 5% on the rears cuz i can still see into my car from the outside. are there any others who got 5% over factory on the rears? if so, how hard is it to drive at night (especially...

Thanks!

Does factory tint neet to be removed? I'm wanting to get darker tint on my 4Runner. Does anyone know if the factory tint needs to be removed or is it part of the glass? Will tinting over the factory tint cause any undesirable side effects? Thanks!

Tried this, but the trunk wouldn't open for me. I ended up disconnecting the battery and reconnecting and was finally able to open the trunk.

Those pics look sweet! Does anyone know how to change the color of the dashboard lights? Is it even possible?

Color keyed door handles are the same color as the rest of your car. I have chrome door handles on my Galactic grey 4Runner, so I'm trying to change to colored ones. Have you checked how much it will cost you to buy the chrome ones?

Haha, I'm trying to change my door handles to be color keyed. :p What color is your 4Runner?

Does anyone know how to remove the exterior door handles on a 4th gen 4Runner? I got the interior door panel off and unscrewed one bolt that attaches the handle, but can't seem to figure out how to remove the rest of the handle.

I just did a dry run on removing some of these chrome parts myself to see how hard they are to replace with color keyed ones. Grille: Easy to remove. There are about 8 nuts that need to be removed. After disconnecting the lever for the hood latch, the grill pops right off. Rear garnish: A bit...
