I reattached the badges by cutting out 3M double-sided tape. It was a pain but worked well. The badges held firm until I sold the car four years ago. I ended up plasti-dipping all of the badges and liked that look a lot.

If my "Re-badging" post was a child, it could drive now. I am so proud!

Replying to an old post... Momo.75, Did you use vinyl from that Color Match Wrap website? I just discovered that site while looking for a good way to to body-match my chrome parts. I would love to hear some personal experience. Did it match the paint just right? Did it seem like it was...

I bought my 2008 about 1.5 years ago. Low mileage, one owner, clean CarFax - a beauty! Apparently, the driver door had been damaged at some point and repaired shoddily. There were two symptoms: the door opens too far and contacts the hinge, and a little "bump" that occurred every time I rolled...

I will only sell the stereo and trim piece together.

Does anyone know if the Urban Runner's Eclipse/TomTom unit can be used in a 4th gen with the JBL Synthesis system?

Reviving an ancient thread!!! Does anyone know if the Urban Runner's Eclipse/TomTom unit can be used in a 4th gen with the JBL Synthesis system?

For sale is the factory head unit / stereo from my 2008 Urban Runner including the factory trim piece. This unit is made by Eclipse for Toyota and has a pop-out TomTom GPS navigation system. The car has 65,000 miles on it. All of the details are in my craigslist add...

Dash light color Am I correct that the orange color of my HVAC lights is created by an orange bulb (or clear bulb with an orange sleeve)? I went to the dealership to get a replacement for a blown out bulb for the fan level switch. The bulb they gave me is green. Actually it is a clear bulb...

I bought a great low-mileage Urban Runner a year ago and I am ready to do a stereo upgrade. I know this is slightly off-topic, but i did not want to start a new Urban Runner stereo thread. I know I want to get a new head unit and amp. I know I do not want to add a subwoofer. I am not an...

Did you have any trouble making the head unit fit? I want to replace the head unit in my 2008 Urban Runner and the first stereo guy I talked to said he would probably have to trim the surround some to make a double DIN fit.

Has anyone done a deep satoshi-style mesh for the hole in the front bumper?

HCWatson997 My compromise tire was the Michelin Defender A/T which has a more aggressive look but is supposed to have good road manners - for an A/T tire. I am glad I went for the Michelin Defender LTX. It's a bummer that it looks like it came off a minivan, but the ride is so quiet and smooth!

Subtle but sexy I recently completed my very mild transformation with wheel spacers, one-size-taller tires, and a 1.5" front spacer lift. The result, I feel, is how Toyota should have set these trucks up from the factory, and I love it. I was tempted to go with bigger tires, all terrain tires...

Got my custom made 1.5” Cornfed front spacer lift installed. Just enough to get rid of some rake and clear the new tires and wheel spacers. Thanks Burtman Industries!
