    Aftermarket TRD Pro Grill letters

    I think you need these instead. I had to get these because the first I also lost my T. I received the new set and the colors didn't match very well so I just replaced them all with the new ones. These stick much better than the previous and have a better finish to them. O,A,T,Y LETTERS FOR TSO...

    5th Gen Limited HVAC Controls UPGRADE?

    I'd save your money for something else. You'll never get any money back from doing that.

    Drill holes in side mirrors for water

    Sounds like a good idea until you hit the highway at 65 mph and you can't figure out where that crazy high pitched whistle is coming from. I replaced my mirror puddle lights with led's and one of the mirrors bezel wasn't completely snapped in and man did that make some noise.

    Anything I can do to improve the stock brakes?

    Usually the performance pads give off more brake dust, generally speaking, which is why I didn't give them a go. Brake dust is one of my pet peeves.

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    Which R-Pod is that? We're looking at the 195 right now. Which air bags did you use?

    How did you get the windshield tinted? I'm in Texas as well and I thought it was illegal. You put the 5% on the windows that were factory tinted already but what about the front windows?

    Anything I can do to improve the stock brakes?

    Akebono Premium pads with centric premium rotors was a total fix for me. Braking is day and night improvement. I don't get the air bubble feeling at 50% pedal press and its very consistent with the pressure put on the pedal till stop. I recommend.

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    I couldn't find the fridge on amazon. Any info on that so I can look at where you got it from?

    Engine noise sounds like diesel at idle

    If your rocker arms were broke, I'm pretty sure you'd hear a crazy metal on metal clanking noise and the engine would run super rough. Just saying, I heard a '96 corvette with broken rockers and it sounded horrible for the 10 secs it ran.

    0W-20 vs 5W-20 - Can we run both?

    Here's the comparison of the oil I was wanting to try next. This stuff shows to be a great oil. The first link is the 0W-20 and the second is the same oil in 5w-20. I understand that this is trivial and not spending the green for the health of the car can be seen as controversial but this was...

    0W-20 vs 5W-20 - Can we run both?

    Yeah and there's where I was going with this. Especially now during the summer. I don't want this to get into a huge oil discussion but just a situational discussion based on my environment.

    0W-20 vs 5W-20 - Can we run both?

    My question is, have you guys noticed a difference in price between 0W-20 and 5W-20 oil in general? I find the the 0w-20 is always at a higher price. Why is that? Being down here in Texas I would think that I could run the 5W-20, save some money without any issues. What say you?

    Just finished installing new sliders

    Yeah, what does the fuel tank have to do with this install? Shouldn't even be a concern with this.
