    Radio Upgrades... Let see them.

    Yeah there is a molex connector that's next to the main radio connector. I just soldered the 2 wires from the ATOTO straight to it. If you see the image I attached, I just soldered Pin 5 and Pin 14 to the wires off the molex. And SWC Ground from the molex to a ground on the frame. I have the...

    Radio Upgrades... Let see them.

    You only need the Metra TYTO-01 JBL Amplifier Interface if you are keeping the JBL amps etc. You have to connect the Metra TYTO-01 JBL Amplifier Interface Harness to the wiring harness from the ATOTO. The colors are the same, except I had some confusion with the amp and antenna wires. Blue and...

    Radio Upgrades... Let see them.

    I have the ATOTO A6 Performance and didn't need anything for the steering wheel controls. You can directly wire it into the radio harness. I have the JBL RDS stereo so had to buy the Metra TYTO-01 JBL Amplifier Interface Harness. My first one was defective. Would sometimes have no volume when...

    Rough Ride...

    I had 234k miles on my original shocks. On the freeway in N. Ca, you could feel everything and on really bumpy roads, I felt like it was out of control. Installed TRD Pro Bilsteins and the ride is stiffer but is in total control. Same drive on the same roads feels a lot better. I'm guessing...

    How to make spare chipped keys

    I tried to take it apart. But it felt like I was going to break it. I could only pop off the batter cover and that felt like it was going to break.

    How to make spare chipped keys

    just an FYI for my Toyota parts dealer was $45 for the master key and then $15 to cut it. So $60 for a new key total. Probably cheaper anyplace out of the SF Bay Area. Then they said I'd have to take it to service to program for more $$. But you can follow any of the instructions here to...

    How to make spare chipped keys

    I'm seriously considering doing that. Sometimes turning the car off I'll accidentally hit the panic button. I was thinking some crazy glue on the corners of the button might do the trick as well.

    How to make spare chipped keys

    I bought that exact flip key on Amazon. I took it to Lowes and they cut it for me. I used some youtube videos on how to program the transponder and the fob. It works great. Only problem is the buttons are not lower than the body, so you can accidentally hit panic and also roll your back window...

    Cost of professional paint job?

    I only paid $4500 for my 4runner and really want to repaint it. But say at $2500, its more than half what I paid for her. So can't justify it. If wraps were cheaper I'd consider it. But I've seen matte wraps go for $6k. Ouch.

    What did everyone pay for their 4th gen?

    Got my 04 Limited V8 for $4500. Has 230k miles but drives and runs great. Previous owner and all the timing belt etc done at 184k. I think I got a pretty good deal.
