    WTB: 4th gen spare tire carrier assembly

    Someone stole my spare and cut the steel line. I'm looking for the whole assembly so i can just bolt it right back in. Let me know if you will let yours go. Thanks.

    What year FJ did you get the skid plate from and where did you get it?

    140 bucks for a key? WTF!!!!

    I went to the dealer about a month ago and they charged about $220 for a new key, fob, and programming. I happily handed over my warranty information and I walked out with a smile....

    Spare Tire Lock on 4th Gen

    My spare was stolen two weeks ago. They just cut the cable...now I need a wheel. Should have locked it.

    Putting in Gear Immediately After Starup

    ideal warm up wait time should only be 30-60 seconds just to get the fluids going. Any longer and your just wasting gas because your injectors are staying open longer to try and warm up the car...hence the higher rpms at start up. I would say 3 minutes for the frigid below zero temps though...

    Oil change question

    If you're not a DIY guy, then stick to Toyota. They'll use oem parts (filter, drain plug gasket, and reg. oil) and everything will be documented in thier database for the car's maintanence history. That way they can't say anything about you not keeping up with your car if anything mechanically...

    Bull Bar Brand

    I've had it for about 4 months now. I bought it from Autoanything.com Definitely must have gotten screwed then. My bar doesnt even have mounting points pre drilled to even accomodate any upper brackets.

    Bull Bar Brand

    I have the steelcraft bullbar on my 04...definitely flimsy due to the fact its only bolted to the frame on on the bottom. I've been looking around at home depot lately to try and make my own brackets that will mount from the frame to a higher part on the vertical part of the bars. Kind of hard...

    Color matched headlights

    most of the late model corvettes come stock with color matching housings... nice job painting the lights...you'll have to take some in the sun to give us a better perspective though

    ebay headlights?

    certainly not dimmer...I still have to aim the beams a bit more so they aren't blinding everyone, but I like them so far. I have a pair of HIR bulbs coming within the next few days, so my whole light situation will change anyway...I opted for the HIR bulbs rather than the HIDs for the fact that...

    Toyota emblem on back hatch

    i used the 3m double sided body panel tape. i put the strips of tape to completely cover the whole back of the emblem, and used a razor to cut out the open spaces of the emblem....time consuming, but worth it.

    exhaust pipe size

    I went to a few local parts stores (autozone, o'reiley's, pep boys) and took a look at what they had. I wanted to see in person what the tip looked like, rather than order something online and have it not be what I expected. I ended up getting one from Pep Boys. It is the same exact style...

    ebay headlights?

    Forgot to mention that the screw that goes into the lower (hard to reach infamous bolt-to-frame) tab was too small. I neede to dig into my box of screws I have and found one for each that fit. So before you install the lights, make sure the screws thread in before you get nearly done and...
