Yeap Trail... So the side marker bulb is higher resistance ~24.75? Didn't think the difference would be so much. I'll give it a try. Also noticed that the connectors are slightly difference.

You may be right... But I'm gonna give it a try over the weekend. Hard part is getting to the side marker connector

I've had a number of occasions where other drivers were unable to determine that I was turning... Had one guy actually yell at me while pointing to the side Marker in the headlight assembly telling me my blinker wasn't on!!! I been looking at the design and really don't like the fact that from...

Anyone else notice if their stock antenna has started rusting? To difficult to get a good picture, but the wire that spirals up the post has rust appearing on it. Could be due to my location near the coast. Will take it into the dealer to get replaced before my warranty ends...

That's the way I'm leaning... Only concern would be if the wire guage is big enough to carry the load. Normally, I think there would be a dedicated wire from the fuse box for both sides equally carrying the load (10amps per wire). Thanks for the reply. So you basically cut an individual...

I just looked at the factory wiring a bit more and concluded that the drivers side seat has all the wires in Connector Ob1 needed to support the factory heated seat. I pulled the 20Amp fuse and ohm'd out the circuit from the fuse box to pin 6 of Ob1. It's there, which means there is a fused...

Did you guys cut the carbon fiber in order to make a slot to allow the hog rings to be re-installed?

Thanks Kyle, Wonder why Toyota installed the Fuse??? I'll try and ohm out the circuit on Wednesday to see if the wiring is actually routed from that fuse (#13) to under the seat (Ob1, Pin6). If so, it seems like the right choice for powering the aftermarket amazon kit. JNB

Hey, looking at the Driver side fuse box I noticed that the 20Amp fuse for the seat heater was installed... # 13, S/HTR FR, 20 A, Seat heater system I also noticed that the Ob1 connector underneath the driver side seat has three wires going to it. - Ob1, pin 1, Pink wire (P) - Ob1, pin 5...

Dimming of the illumination likely doesn't work? Noticed in the vehicle wiring diagram that the lights that dim have a separate return line rather than connecting straight to ground.

I picked up the Amazon kit and shot a couple of pictures of the contents. Didn't get any instructions at all. Was wondering if anyone had instructions to share? There was also a sheet of mettalic material with a sticky backing... Not sure what it is for, any idea's? Here are some pictures...

FS: Shrockwork sliders I have a used pair of shrockwork sliders that I'm selling. They are for a Trail edition, powder coated with three support bars. I will not ship these sliders so only local so-cal sales. PM me if your interested Thanks *****SOLD*****

I did, It's a bit expensive but retains the stock look. I bought the following: 64730-35140-C0 - panel 86150-0w120 - speaker assembly (box & speaker) 91631-j0612 - bolts to mount the Speaker assembly I added a aftermarket JL Audio 250/1 monoblock subwoofer amplifier. I ended up replacing...

Anyone know if the Subwoofer switch on an FJ will fit in the blanks on the left side of the steering wheel? I'd like to have an on off switch for my aftermarket subwoofer amp for when the kids are in the back seat. The switch looks a bit bigger so I thought I would ask if others have tried it...

I picked my Trail up at El Cajon Toyota for $35,700.00 (KDSS w/o NAV)... Maybe talk to them if you haven't already.
