Did the tire shop rebalance after removing TPMS?

Yes, I did look at some I found online but they are very expensive. I would rather find a mod for the OEM seats. There is a local auto upholstery shop that I should drop by.

Basically the seat doesn't fit my body. Anyone done upholstery mods? Or seat covers in place of modifying the seat?

I got an ad in the mail from the dealer offering the new map for $169

I would like to know if the refills are available too. I would guess any brand blade refill would fit. I used the Michelin blades on my old SUV for years and I will buy them again until I find refills for the original wipers. Edit - I was making an order on Amazon and I found the blade refills...

Ginormously washed out pics. :shrug: I'd like to see some photos of the nuts and bolts of the conversion.

I was able to download the software. I'm running Windows 7. I am at the configuration screen. I was able to find a dealer code on a random webpage. Unfortunately it needs a product key and says it expires September 1 :( Now I just need to buy the dongle or whatever it's called.

I carry a heavy rolling briefcase in my passenger seat that sets off the stupid seatbelt alarm. I would also like to shut off the open drivers door alarm chime. I will be buying the techstream thingy.

I bought these at Costco for my previous vehicle and put 18k on them when I sold it. I think they were great tires. I run mostly highway with my 4Runner and I would not hesitate to use the Defenders. I think they are 90k mile rated tires?

My office is in DC and I telework from Norfolk. I live in NoVa and Tidewater about equally.

Shenandoah National Park is my favorite. You can camp in RV, tent and cabins. In the Shenandoah Valley outside the park there are a lot of small campgrounds.

I typically use Waze but since I bought this truck I have been trying the Nav. It does OK around town and on the Interstates. I wish I could mirror Waze in the display.

Thanks Lester. It looks like I might not have the current versions of software. I wasn't able to download the software files from the document :(

My Navigation freezes up and reboots too often for my liking. Seems to crash when in navigation and switching to audio and then back again. My 2014 does automatic software updates, right? Would a new map version help?

Thanks for the links guys! I can easily modify the stock skid plate with these examples.
