Female 4Runner owner here. I've got the Steelcraft nerf bars (http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/65128-nerf-bars-installed.html) and two years later, I'm looking to replace them with real running boards soon. I love the way they look but they aren't practical for someone like me (whose...

When you go to purchase your 4Runner, make this part of your negotiations. That's what I did. I have a SR5 with the premium package but I'm in Florida and subject to the tyranny of Southeast Toyota. They install their own leather (both on the seats and the doors) at the port in Jacksonville...

I also went SR5 with the premium package instead of the Limited. Like many others, I couldn't justify the price. The only thing I really with I had was Nav and now that Nav is available in a SR5, I really can't justify the extra cost. Just an aesthetic note from a female owner - I love the...

Wanted: Running Boards for a 2010 SR5. Also interested in a stock nav unit if anyone has replaced theirs with an after-market setup.

And whatever makes you think my T4R's sole purpose is to be a mall cruiser? I live in Florida, so not much in the way of rocks, cliffs and steep grades/dropoffs in my neck of the woods. Don't insult me, I may be a girl but I know enough about handling terrain and I certainly know the kind of...

Ah, a determination of classy made by someone who proceeds to use the word "whores"? Irony at its finest. :lmao:

:iagree: I'd also be interested in buying a leather one, too, if someone does a swap. I'm like Westwind and have the leather but no leather shifter. I bet we could order it through Toyota though. Anyone have a part number?

Thanks for the replies everyone, I thought it was a funny piece of material and it's reassuring to know every single 4Runner seems to have it. This was my second thought, the first being is is merely there to protect the console and the seat when the driver's seat is moved. But it then seems...

So I hit 500 miles this week and am continuing to discover new things about my SR5. Today, I noticed a piece of carpet like material sewn into the seam of my driver's side seat. It drapes down between the seat the console, but past the seam where it's adhered, it's loose. I pulled it out and...

Come on Quentin, at least upgrade from 3M tape to Velcro, then the iPad would always be removable . . . Harper, I'm assuming you will sell the OEM Nav when you replace it. Do you have a buyer for it yet and if not, any idea how much you'll want for it? Thanks.

I look forward to seeing the stainless steel, I had a hard time deciding but in the end with the black just so they'd be less conspicuous (in case I didn't like the way they looked). I can measure it for you. Eyeballing it'd I say you loses maybe 8" or so? I may be way off, guesstimates are...

I installed mine today and posted pictures in another thread. I'm very happy with the quality, the ease of installation and the black :-) http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs-its-finally-here/65128-nerf-bars-installed.html

Thanks everyone! Thanks, I didn't want regular running boards because I don't like how dirt and grime can get caught in them since they are closed off (if that makes sense). Always been a big fan of tubulars. You do have to remove the small plastic deflector that's just in front of you rear...

My nerf bars from autoanything.com arrived yesterday so the bf and I installed them this morning. Very happy with the result. As you can see I went with the powder coated black because I was worried about "too" much chrome on the 4Runner. I think the black balances the chrome out...

Has any SR5 owner, whose 4Runner does not have these lights, popped the plastic cover off to see if it's wired for them?
