Sounds nice. Any reason you went with the Hexomats instead of Husky or Weathertech?
Were the running boards installed at the dealer? I'd love to see pics of the DVD headrests and the running boards.
Did you request the DVD be installed at port? My truck is supposed to come into Jersey July 2-9 and then to my NY dealer where they are going to install the DVD. Whats the difference between at port or dealer (yes I know location is different wise guys). Thanks and good luck with your new rig.
I ordred the Hexomats because the grooves in the Weathertech mats are just too deep. I saw the Hexomats in a Lotus Elise at a car show and I really liked the look. There are lots of square angles inside the 4Runner so I think they'll fit, in terms of their looks.
Running boards were done at the port.
DVD was done at the port. My wife works for the distributor, I kind of think the DVD's were a "favor" for her.
I forgot to add that I also got the crossbars on the roof rack.
This weekend I will wash her up and take some pics!!!

In deciding between a roof mounted vs headrest mounted DVD system, I was wondering whether the headrest systems are more likely to incite break ins and theft. I figure someone could smash the window and just lift the headrest. I thought of this becasuse my dealer said that when he installs the headrest systems, he sells a cover to make it look like you don't have one. Was this a concern to anyone? Then again, I live in the New York metro area where this stuff may be happening more often.

'Out of sight is out of mind' - that is how I make my choices. I will say, I have been to NY a number of times and do not understand why anyone would get a new car there! Every one I saw was dented, scratch, & marked up! I would want to have a full body cage for my new car there! Maybe you have a more secure garage area to park in and never drive it around the city? Best of luck and maybe a 48" lift so you can just roll over the traffic when it becomes a problem

The worst about New york is that I doubt my Blizzard Pearl bumper will stay looking new for long. Around here, bull guards are a must, and you're right, it doesn't pay to buy a new car. Unfortunately, I don't like leasing, and I loved the look of the new 4runner so here I am. I will go with the overhead DVD, though, because I think it's less prone to theft.
Review so far--love the truck! This is my first SUV so the whole experience is a bit new. I do have a couple of things that irk me--the horn had to go, I went with the FIAMM El Grande. Also I don't like the mast antenna so I ordered the stubby from Craven. Finally, by biggest pet peeve is the doors sound tinny. I'm going to drop the car off at a sound shop in a week or two for some dynomat treatment.
Sorry guys, I don't have a camera but I should have one late tomorrow so weather permitting I'll get some pics up.
