Those headlights look fantastic!

Replaced Gas Cap and removed Hydrocarbon Filter No photos, sorry. I ordered a genuine Toyota replacement fuel filler cap and installed that. Took like a minute. Went ahead and removed the hydrocarbon filter, too. That took about 10 minutes. 2003 4Runner Limited 4WD V8, Black

Honestly, just because my first car was a Trans Am, and despite its lack of quality and power, I loved that thing. Not that I want another, but there's a big black hood there that could probably hold one of those Firebird decals, and those pillars between the rear windows and the cargo area...

I need to do this to mine!

I used to have an 85 MR2. Man, I miss that go-kart!

While a had a few minutes to kill, I filed down the little tabs on the sides of the LED turn signal bulbs so they wouldn't keep catching on the hole in the tail light while extracting them. Here's a link to the bulbs...

Did you replace the cup holder lights? Can you get me some details on that if you did? Like what bulb, where did you get them, how did you get to them, etc.

Some bulbs are super easy, some are a bit tougher. The glove box light was a pain in the rear for me. I used this LED and this tool made it so much easier. As a matter of fact, that tool came in handy for a lot of the bulbs. I still haven't done the rear turn signals or brake lights, the...

I've got a black Gen4 4Runner Limited, not Sport Edition, but it's got the 4.7L V8. I know it's not a sports car, but I got this kooky idea in my head of putting a big gold flaming chicken on the hood. I haven't found anyone else on the Internet who has done this yet, so I may be the inventor...

New tires, more LED lights I just bought this a couple of weeks ago and it needs a fair amount of work. I can't afford to do all of it at once, but tires and brakes were high on the list. Got the brakes done last week (kind of finished them yesterday) and got the tires done yesterday. While...

I LOVE them! On a side note, your 4Runner is the opposite of mine. I have a black 4Runner with silver roof rack and silver running boards.

The ones that "don't fit" work perfectly. They are bright, but not too bright for the vanity lights. They are the same "color" of white as the other LEDs in the dome and map lights. Here's a link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MOYJ0YW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'm only 8 years behind you. Didn't do the visor vanity lights as the ones I ordered do not fit. Everywhere online seems to think that you need 31mm festoon bulbs but they're just too fat. Not sure when this changed as some of the older write-ups clearly state 29mm by 6mm. So I just ordered...

I used these that I ordered from Amazon: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N0OD0VB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I found it quite frustrating that once you unsnap it, it's too big to fit down through the access hole, so you pretty much have to bend it all out of shape to get it down. Then you can change the bulb out. I'm also frustrated that the light only comes on if the headlights are on. Seriously...
