That location should work for grounding the amp (though I would recommend bolting to a seat bolt or for mine I used the "D" ring bracket bolt in the cargo area). For a simple test of the amp, disconnect your remote wire from the amp that is from the radio, put a jumper from your Battery +...

I looked around in the back but there didnt seem to be any (obvious) connection back there. I'm thinking it's up front somewhere cause I believe I found the reverse light wire under both the L&R rear passenger floor trim. More indepth investigating maybe in order if someone doesn't come up with...

Why? I love lighting & I think it's cool looking :). Legality ? Depends on how you use them.. If the situation justifies them I'd say it's totally legal--- Fl Stat 316.241. (7) Flashing lights are prohibited on vehicles except: (a) As a means of indicating a right or left turn, to change lanes...

When the lights alternate back & forth. Best example of them( that every one will relate to ) Police car headlights.

I am trying to finding the location where the wiring for the Left & RIght Reverse lights join together on my '98. Does anyone know where this happens?( It's my understanding that there is one wire from the reverse switch and that it then goes into a connector that splits to either side.) I am...

Workin on my 3rd Gen Clock Mod. Relocating clock buttons to make room for voltmeter. If all goes well I'll have a fully function factory clock & voltmeter in one. Hoping to finish in the next couple of days [/URL]~original[/IMG]

I have been looking for headlights(99-02 style) for my 98 but I'm hesistant to make the jump. OEM are out of my price range. There is a set on Ebay for $69 shipped from am-autoparts in Kansas.. it states ; "All of our lighting is made of the same material as the originals that came on the...

Had my windows tinted. Just in time for the Florida heat.

Actually this is my 1st Toyota (bought last Fall '12)and I did not know about the switched grounds. Thank you for letting me know. As for my test voltages Battery was 14V whether lights were on or off. I tested the power at the bulb by simply unplugging the bulb and putting test leads into the...

I checked my voltage tonight, 14volts while idling @ Battery but only 13V @ headlamp for high beam and low beam. :(

Washed her and took off tag light lenses that were full of dirt/dust. Washed them too and reinstalled, made a huge difference in light output. Then it poured rain :(

Got to use my newly installed switchback signal/running/strobes lights ( 4Runner LED Mod. - Daytime/Driving/Strobe & Turn signal - YouTube) at an accident scene on the way home from work tonight, before emergency vehicles arrived. Justification for putting strobes on the truck ...complete :)

Quick question- There seems to be some feed back in other threads about aftermarket 99-02 headlights (vs Toyota brand) that they are terrible on projecting the light or something? Can someone elaborate on the problem with them..are some brands better than others? I have already increased my...

I've been leakiing air in my front tire for a week & finally got it patched today for < $13 and in/out in under 20min @ Hahn's Tire, Seffner,Fl. Also found out my 31x10.5s are suppose to run with 50lbs of air...I've been running with 35lbs ever since I bought the 4runner back in Nov '12. Better...
