    Brighter Headlight

    I have the Phillips Xtreme power as well. I have had them in for a year now no issues. I like them and they compare to silverstar easily. I have had all types of bulbs in my vehicles, hids, silvers, PIAA, Nighthawks. Stick with the halogen for all weather driving unless you are ready to make...

    I think this is a first. Media Uprgrade!!

    Hmm very cool design. Nice way to make use of the tv but how often will you use it? May i suggest lining the surface area of the top( or back) of the tv with that sunshade material you see in car windshields? It should help prevent serious heat hitting the boards, especially the capacitors!

    Headlight Issues

    Gun metal will look sweet. Just be careful not to paint over to much of the reflective backing or else your light output will suffer. Gl!

    How Fast is your PC / MAC ? (Post your CineBench 11.5 results)

    Hold down the control button and hit the key labeled "Print Screen" on your keyboard. This takes a snapshot of what your monitor currently shows. Then, open up the program paint and paste it into a blank project. Then save as .jpg, GL

    Anyone elses 3.4 have that tapping sound?

    I dont think thats what he was getting at stinky... I think he was suggesting that the tapping sound could be a small leak at the manifold which would pulsate out as the truck idled causing a slight tap.

    Adding bass

    I think you should have spent whatever money you did on that converter to buy a cheap 12" sub. Then spend $30 on wood to build yourself a box. Or buy a cheap one from walmart... anything but run a home theatre sub in your truck please.

    I dont really run them for speed honestly. More for reliability. The newer xeons are based off of the same architecture as the i7. My xeons are specd to run at very low temperatures with low voltages and 24/7 use. I have had this specific machine on since sometime in the beginning of December...

    Good observation Brian, give me a minute ill get a benchmark lol. I think the results will be miles behind your i7... I should have got one of those processors when i worked at Intel..To bad the ****ers laid a ton of us off right before i was eligible.

    Prospective owner requests buying advice!

    If everything checks out with the blue one...offer him $4300. If he doesnt bite i would walk. There are better out there. An "adventure" vehicle you are looking for tends to get put into some sticky situations.. paying an extra $1k may give you the piece of mind that you can trust your 4R.

    3rd Gen Head Lamps...

    The beam pattern does suck on the older models...I just did the low/high beam mod to improve my overall lighting on the backroads at night. Cheaper than buying new assemblies and they throw nice light now. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/97137-headlight-mod-must-have-cheap.html

    Anyone mount a solar panel to roof rack?

    "Idk if It would matter if it was more insulated. It's like putting a cooler in the oven. If the op has enough sun to run a solar panel then it'll be enough to warm the inside of his runner like a green house and warm the fridge. Most fridges only keep the inside contents 40* cooler than the...

    Anyone mount a solar panel to roof rack?

    I was not telling him to run in series...It was just a heads up to ensure that he did not run them in series. Im sure he understands that his fridge is currently running on 12 volts...he seems like he has a grasp on basic electrical power.
