Anyone have a dog fence/available available for the 4R? The one I have is a POS, squeaks all the time though it does allow the seats to fold down. Anyone have a custom-made one or can recommend a good barrier in the rear seats/trunk section? This is the one I have...

Never mind, figured it out and all's well again. Turned out it was a loose bulb in the housing. Nothing to see here anymore, carry on folks! :)

ONLY the front driver and passenger courtesy lights don't work. Rear doors, trunk, interior map and dome lights all work just fine. Did a search, didn't find anything on this topic. Things I've already troubleshooted: 1) Checked the fuses by the parking brake. The ones I checked are all...

Nice work! I've got a few SMC units from Japan that I will take to my local auto electronics guy to see if he can figure out to get the auto-fold to work on lock and unlock. Shouldn't be too difficult from what I'd imagine. Unfortunately I don't have the proprietary electrical skills to...

Too awesome! I think your truck has become the official 4R "test-mule" for donor parts, mods, upgrades, etc. Jeff. Lol. Don't ever change! :) Glad you figured out how to custom install the RAV4 mirrors like I knew you would, and hope you took your family out to dinner and had a good time...

Thanks man! In all honesty, it wasn't too bad or complex of a install lol. Don't know if I came off a little whiney in the video lol. Was a long day at the office, then came home to wrap this up without too many fancy tools or experience taking apart trim parts on the car. LOVE this mod...

Some pics during the install w/ commentary Prying the switch. Comes out real easy w/ a little wiggle. Speaker does not need to come off to snake the wire through the rubber weather grommet After getting the red and black wires through the damn tight weather rubber grommet. Got both the...

After two long evenings of doing this conversion, I am proud to say the mirrors are finally installed. They work like a charm. Antman is truly the Mod God. I wouldn't call myself the most experienced with installing mods or electrical wiring stuff, but Jeff truly made his "USDM -->...

I will also add to this thread, for general purpose information: JDM Hilux mirrors = DO NOT come with puddle lights, but has the heated mirror feature JDM Fortuner mirrors = include the puddle lights, BUT DO NOT have the heated mirror feature The majority of the JDM mirror will be used on your...

Dr. Antman 's re-wired mirrors have arrived! Wanted to share some photos. Haven't gotten them installed yet because the JDM mirror covers are at the body shop to get painted. Should have them back by Friday, and I will post plenty more pics and videos of them in action once I have them all...

Can be done for $450 in parts. Here's a guy who did it on his Tesla Model S if you are so inclined w/ wiring and hacking your liftgate. Gonna need new struts and a way to power it, either installing a new batt in your trunk or running the wires up to the front of your car...

Just installed Antman 's old stockie MGM mirrors on my 4R. Not gonna lie, I kinda like it. :o Thoughts everyone?

What did I do with my 4R today? I vinyl wrapped it in a purdy blue color. Only to find out there wasn't enough to do the mirrors. :) Antman

bumping this thread to give it the attention it deserves from Dr. Antman's hard work. As of tonight, all available JDM Fortuner and Hilux mirrors have been sold out from what my vendor had emailed me earlier today. Please PM all your folding mirror labor/wiring/mechanical/electrical questions...
