    Is this part even available by itself?

    I would love not to have to buy another stock air intake box, but it looks like the one I got is missing this piece... Without it I have this problem... Hopefully that sleeve is available by itself, but if not looks like I'll have to buy another stock airbox. I knew replacing it with a K&N...

    GX470 Roof Console install

    Anyone have a part number for the two metal v-clips that go over the two front tabs of the overhead console? I somehow lost them fixing the map lights, and my temporary solution of using two generic clips from Ace Hardware is failing me every time the damn console is jarred loose. Searched the...

    4.0 V6 Brola Video

    sorry for the thread bump but i'm wondering if the borla cat back was all bolt up on the v6 without any mods? i was under the impression that the borla was specific to a v8 only.

    Window Tint

    Personally I don't give a rat's ass about my state's tint laws. 6 years in and I'm still rolling with limo tint on top of the OEM colored glass.

    Exhaust Suggestion?

    If you're looking to get rid of your stock exhaust system I would be interested in taking it off your hands On the topic at hand I had the Magnaflow cat back system.

    Heated Outside Mirrors

    You can either: 1. Buy a set of the OEM Sport/Limited mirror assemblies and then figure out a way to t-tap into the prewiring that SR5s evidently have that would heat the mirrors. Search the forum and you'll get more detailed instructions. 2. Buy the Muth LED signal non heated mirrors and add...

    Why not use 100k mile plugs to replace the 30k mile plugs in the V6?

    Until recently I had no idea Toyota "recommends" changing out the spark plugs at 30,000. I'm at 89,000 miles on my 05 V6 with the original spark plugs. Still getting 19-20 combines MPGs. Is it just me or is that necessary? Emissions warranty be dammned!

    Aftermarket Head Unit Help

    If you're going double din, make sure to get the right Metra trim piece and have it installed well. Also don't forget to get the JBL amp bypass module. Search for it and you'll find the right answers.

    Orange (Factory Light Matching) Head Units

    My Pioneer AVH-P4100DVD has an option where I can change the color of the buttons/screen interface. I think most Pioneers have this option. It might be a little hard to see from the daytime pic below but trust me at night it matches very well with the orange of the 4Runner.
