Finally Got My Very Own Toyota 4Runner

[jlaud]

Picked her up two weeks ago and been on a business trip since then so have had no time to do anything. She's a 2005 4Runner Sport V8, got a smokin deal on an awesome truck. Lookin to do some wheelin soon, have only had a few experiences with a Wrangler so I want to keep it mild since I don't plan on adding lifts or any major modifications.

Nice!! No big mods?? yeah, ok. hahaha, at least do the bumper light mod!

 

[jlaud]

Yeah ok I guess there will be a...few...mods lol. What is the headlight mod? One of my first major things will be to try and figure out how to integrate my iPod without messing up the stock JBL system since it sounds so good as is.

That is a great looking truck. 2005 is the best model year to have . Did you put on the Toyota accessory skid plate?

 

[jlaud]

Yep I added the toyota plate, bug shield and valor exhaust tip.

congrat! its never too late to be a 4Runner owner, hope you will enjoy the new truck!

The Bumper Light Mod, is making those rear lights on your bumper functional. I put LEDs in mine and made it so it turns on with my tail lights, and gets brighter with my brakes. Looks awesome.

The page I hyper linked to, is where it started to get really helpful to me.

Don't forget to add a set of these.

When I was shopping around, those liners were on my list of things to get, but to my surprise....the previous owner already had a set and left it in the car when they traded it in. It even has the trunk liner! The only thing I need is the trunk cargo net, its pricey at the stealership so I've been looking around on eBay...haven't had too much luck though.

Too bad you don't live in San Francisco, CA.

The valor exhaust tip is nice, not sure if you would have any luck trading for that unless someone is swapping out their exhaust for a Magnaflow etc.
