Ummmm....anyone ever put the wrong key in their 4Runner? Tonight I put my valet key from my 2010 Tundra Crewmax in my 2016 4Runner Trail, started it and drove off with no problems. Anyone else tried their other Toyota keys? I didn't try the door to see if it would unlock also. I keep it in...

thanks for the size. Bought one tonight to make sure it was correct, and sure enough it was. Will get the rest tomorrow. Any idea on the difference in length/size of the switch one? Thanks Chris

Yes, I am an idiot. I removed the top, numbered the bolts so I would know exactly which goes where.....then misplaced them....ugh.... Now that that is out of the way, is there a resource with the bolt/thread size for each location so I can get replacements? Thanks Chris

Where is the "I FU@K!#G LOVE THIS IDEA" button? You sir hit the nail on the head. Thank you a hundred times over!!!!!!

I am curious to hear more about your experience with the Alfa panels. Do you have any threads on your replacement? Thanks Chris

Fiberglass isn't an option, Slacker isn't taking orders for 2 years. Factory panels are $1K each :mmph: The place in Canada (alfo?) has horrible reviews with respect to fitment. Bondo/replacement sections will eventually rust at the seems. I am planning on making this a summer/nice weather...

I see that Slacker has some great looking alternatives to steel quarter panels. I just picked up a Gen 1 4runner with a solid engine and frame. the body on the other hand.....I will need all 4 quarter panels. Before investing the time and $ in going fiberglass, I was hoping to get feedback...

I guess I go to the wrong scrap yards. I took my buddys catalytic converter to the scrap yard (he legitimately replaced it on his Honda Pilot). They scanned my drivers license and record how many you recycle. I'm guessing if you brought in one a week, you're be flagged. I have aluminum skid...

They have yet to respond to my email. ugg...correspondence would be nice. That being said, I am running a MetalTech front bumper with their factory finish, my Pelfrey bare steel with my rattle can and a Shrockworks rear bumper. It will be interesting to see what a 1 year review does. Just by...

Time will tell. I will be VERY disappointed if my sanding/alcohol rubdown rattle can does better than the "factory" powder coat. FWIW, I ran N-Fab nerf bars for a longer period of time than the front bumper from MetalTech and there was ZERO rust on my nerf bars and rust on my bumper. Nerf...

I got Pelfrey sliders and got them unfinished. I busted my ass sanding them down and priming with etching primer then a few coats of Rustolium bed liner spray. If my DIY finish lasts longer on sliders than "professional" powder coat, i'll be pissed. Chris

My MetalTech front bumper is about 2 months old. There are already signs of rust coming through the powdercoat where there are welds. My buddy stopped by with his 3 week old MetalTech front bumper and he has the same thing happening. Does anyone else have this issue and if so, how bad will it...

I put spongy rubber tool drawer mat on the bottom so stuff doesn't slide around. Also, I added the option for firearm storage in a kydex holster bolted to the top of the drawer for a out of view storage. If the truck gets broken into, it won't be seen.

Best I can do. i got excited building it and didn't take picts. hope this helps anyone thinking of DIYing it.

but from a sales standpoint, a bag with their logo embroidered on it gets more free advertising than a rigid bag.
