initial estimate was 8K and somehow it’s creeped up to 12 K nearly 13 K. now I’m thinking the body shop wants it totaled

There’s paint damage the entire length of the drivers side. Both doors are creased in, and the front bumper mounts broke. The factory running board was bent down, but it appears that the frame is OK. Driver’s front wheel is gouged terribly. The car was shoved into the curb, but I’m not observing...

Appreciate the honest opinion on the S/C. I probably should put some effort into seeing if anyone local has one and would give me a ride or something. probably will join PCA at some point thanks for the link to the cover, ill see if they have one with red stitching I did think about new, but...

yeah I might go a little while longer without the supercharger it just feels unsafe when passing you know? funny I did test drive a Cayenne and checked out a Panamera as well a few months ago to see if i wanted to change. and I mean a cayenne is a great vehicle but I just didn’t really enjoy...

it never sees anything tougher than fire access roads. When I bought it 10 years ago I did consider things like the Highlander or the Cayenne but I just like the 4runner and the way it drives. nothing new is appealing at all either. so I figure I might as well fix a couple of little things like...

Defender LTX again. Current defenders have some good tread left, but they are getting old.

4runner Hello, 2014 4runner with KDSS. Dark gray. About 115,000 trouble free miles. Running stock suspension and tires, with bilstein shocks. I was planning on the new landcruiser, but after seeing it in person I really appreciated my existing 4runner more and spent my new car funds on a...

Thanks. Fortunately they only apparently damaged a clip holding the 4RUNNER logo/hatch panel. The car horn does go off if you open the doors while it's locked. Maybe it doesn't apply to the hatch.

This happened in my driveway. They broke in through the rear hatch. They pried up the left side of the plastic cover, and I guess fished it open. Something is broken/rattling inside but I'm not sure what. They tossed the interior, but didn't take anything I'm aware of. They did rifle through the...

Really appreciate it but the in-laws are about to get here so I just button to back up with the factory parts I'm sure the forum vendor will make it right.

Thanks they do appear to be nearby but they're closed on weekends. Guess I'll just put the factory stuff in and hollar at the vendor on Monday. at least I'm getting good with this I'm just worried about messing up my KDSS

I'm using the no spring compressor method and everything went well on one side, now I have the other side of the car torn apart and I'm getting ready to install the kit from total automotive performance... but unfortunately I only made sure all the shocks were correct I didn't open the boxes and...

No it would be a black flat plastic with insulatiob on the back that would I she connect to the bottom of that kick panel. I guess the 4Runner just doesn't have it

I've done tons of car audio installs I can't imagine this would be too much more difficult. I'll give it a shot thanks!

Thanks. I'm not sure I can talk the dealer into ripping out the alarm. They may not even have done the install (it was a transfer from another dealer.) guess it can't hurt to ask. Though I could probably uninstall it myself just by removing it from the spliced wiring yeah?
