BACK IN ACTION got the car back from the shop. problem -- blown fuse !?!?!?!!!? It was a fuse in the engine compartment. I was pretty sure I checked all the fuses, but apparently not. Anyway, everything seems to be running fine now. Lessons learned 1> disconnect power before messing...

CRUD fuses looked ok so i am taking it to the shop.:mad: i'll let you know what happens when i get it back

good advice on on cutting off the power before doing electrical work -- learned my lesson the hard way i looked at wiring diagrams last night and it looks like the wires run through the body ecu before they hit any fuses. that would be bad for me. if thats the case, did i screw up the ecu...

i was adding some lights to the footwell and was going to tap into the door wires so that when the door opened the lights would come on. Toyota doesn't give you any extra wire to work with and everything is tightly compacted together somehow the wires may have touched. that's the only thing i...

found this thread Looks like I might have to wait a while for the steering wheel controls. I guess reaching over the whole 6 inches wont kill me. found this thread discussing the potential costs involved. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8477

Is there any way to add radio controls to my steering wheel? I've got a stock radio.

I saw the neons at the autostore and some leds that might work. They were from $10 - $20 so I may just try them both and see which one works better. Wiring to the ingnition switch sounds like it will do what I want. :cool: Now I just need some time to get'r done!

Has anyone used the toyota japan interior lighting kit from Carson? The green lighting in the footwells. What kind of lights do they use? Any other good footwell lighting ideas? Thanks

Bought GTCovers seatcovers I bought seat covers for the front seats from GTCovers. The company/website claims a perfect fit. They are not a perfect fit but they are pretty close for seat covers and they are fitting better with age. I bought the leatherette ones. The seat and back are...

Where is a good place to get seat covers. Walmart and Target don't have any that fit. If you haven't figured it out yet, I am looking for someting inexpensive if possible. and what about decenct license plate frames. Thanks 05 SR5
