FWIW, I had the same thing happen to me, where the latch just stopped working. I took the panel off on the inside, and couldn't see anything on the inside that looked out of place. I'd jiggle things around, and it would work for a little bit, and then go back to not working. Frustrated and...

It was around $215. Originally listed for $330, but they had a massive sale during black friday and all that crap......probably was made for about $10 bucks though haha.

Yeah, it vibrates a little bit on pavement, and even more on dirt roads. So the vertical support is what is lacking. I'm probably just being a bit picky, but I know what I want. The radiator support is really solid. I think it more has to do with the bolts connecting the flat piece of steel...

So, it's not pretty, but it worked alright......well, it made the light fit nicely. It's just not solid enough for my liking. I picked up the pieces from Home Depot and modified accordingly. I bent the 90 degree brackets to fit the light, and drilled holes in the flat piece of steel to line...

Thanks! I'll get some pictures up when I get a chance, but the way I have it mounted isn't ideal. I couldn't find any company that actually makes a mounting bracket for it, so I made my own. It's made from a piece of flat steel with two 90 degree angle brackets mounted on the ends that I...

32" 180W radius/curved light bar with all spot reflectors. The curve of the bar matches the curve of the bumper almost perfectly.

That's a great price--I'd be shocked if he didn't have several offers on it already.

When I painted my fender flares, I brought the paint code that I wanted to a Sherwin-Williams store and they mixed up paint for me right there, brought it outside to make sure it matched my paint, and then they made up several cans of spray paint for me. Paint ended up being a perfect match...

I also had my windows tinted with ceramic tint from Llumar and I noticed a big difference in hot my 4runner was. It gets pretty hot in the FL sun, and it will still be warm when I get in, but nowhere near as hot as it used to be. I had the pretty much clear 80% tint put on the windshield, and...

Got it! Awesome--Thank you!

PM sent Thank you!

Hi, I'm looking for a 3rd Gen shift knob for the manual transmission shifter that is OEM leather wrapped. Please PM me or post here if you have one you want to sell. Thanks!

So, I gave Ceratec a shot and threw in a bottle during my last oil change. I researched this quite a bit on this site and other forums and sites like bobistheoilguy. I've had this 4runner for a year now, and would say that I average about 17.5mpg, and I measure my gas mileage on every fill up...

It took me 7 months to find one that loosely matched my criteria. I ideally wanted a black 5spd V6 with zero rust, very few flaws, and under 200k miles for $6k or less. I was not in a rush, and was willing to wait for the right one. I was naive when I started searching though. This was going...
