LimaSierra's '18 TRD Off-Road Build and Pic Thread

[N2TRKYS]

Thank You!

Didn't have great luck with Weathertech mats. Had three sets sent to my for my ESV and all three curled and buckled. Driver, Pass and Rear Cargo. Very disappointed. Hopefully you will have better luck.

Dealer gave me credit for my OE wheels and tires, so had them put on the BFG A/T KO2 tires (265/70 - 17) and TRD rims.









Thank You!

M status is where you can change the color (Ext and Int) as well as port options. Could be called something else officially. Yes, LEDs are MUCH brighter. Lumen is the brand.









Painted them in the body shop prior to delivery.

Thanks for the info. Sorry for the questions. I'm hoping to buy my first 4R in the next couple of weeks.

What issues did you have with WeatherTech mats? I'm in the market for a set. Haven't decided yet

First set I ordered for my ESV curled up on driver, pass and rear cargo area edges. Had them send me another set. Those did the same and also became very stuff almost right out of the box. Also would not stay in place. Third (current) set had the same issues. Great CS at WT, just the quality was poor.

Went with Husky for the 4R. Soft, but stays in place and doesn't buckle. Also has spikes on the back to make sure it stays in place.

Congratz! Welcome to the 5th Gen Club. Truck looks great so far. The wheels really make the truck.

Can you please figure out which lumen lights you have in the low beams? A model number or picture of the light inside the assembly would be great. Been searching the Lumen brand because your dealer preferred them and so far can't figure out which ones they might be.

The stock low beams on my '17 4Runner OR really bite, no comparison to the 15 Tacoma that I traded in for the 4Runner, can't even see potholes in the road at night, running over the potholes lets me know they are there.

Would really appreciate your help with this...Thank you.

I will look to see if I can get the number for the low beams. I believe they are their G7S bulbs. You should be able to order them as vehicle specific. Highly recommend swapping to LEDs. They are must!

Very happy with how these LEDs and Lamin-x turned out. Much brighter than stock. Interior LEDs on order. Will post some better pics soon.

[LimaSierra]

Upgraded all the interior lights.

Lumen NB series. Much brighter than stock.

Loving your truck, your dealership really hooked you up with all those extra appearance mods. Bought my 2017 SR5P around the same time as you, just did the full LED interior upgrade as well. Nice looking truck!

Looks great. I'm jealous your dealer gave you a credit on the tires/rims. I'm picking up my 2018 OR Super White with KDSS next week. I plan to do a few mods (many of the same ones you have done), but tires/rims are first on the list. Neither of the dealers I spoke with here in St. Louis would offer a credit for swapping out the rims/tires. One wouldn't even bring in new tires. I'll end up with a few extra steps, but hopefully a rig that looks as good as yours.

By the way - I completely agree on the Weather tech vs. Husky liners. I have had both and had the same curling issue with Weather Tech -- Husky from now on out!

Do you know which bulbs they put in the fogs? Can't seem to find them.

Sub, amp, bass knob and radar installed. Still deciding on if I want to use my single W3 sub or my double W6s.
