My interior pieces are taking longer than I had expected, but for now here is a quick mod I installed tonight on all four doors. To project the toyota logo on the ground when I open the doors, cheap and simple to do.
Only cost $25 to do all 4 doors and about 5 minutes to install.

I installed a couple KC Hilites led's under the hood so I can fix stuff in an emergency at night or whatever. They are bright! I'm contemplating using these as extra rock lights in strategic spots under the vehicle too.
I ran the on/off switch and mounted it right on the cowl panel since its a waterproof switch with a rubber boot. and ran the wires to my add on fuse box next to my switchpods unit. I didn't wanna waste a fuse spot just for th hood lights since they are low amperage and would only be used for emergency fixes and such so added onto a fuse for another light on the vehicle.

Thanks for sharing, great build. Go me rethinking a couple of my mods.
Do you have a pic of the CB installed and the bracket? I have the same CB hanging out on my workbench. Any. problems with SWR and the Rago bracket? I cant get my SWR down. It is fully grounded with a 18' cable, 4' firestik and midland 75-822.

Actually I ended up not doing CB and just using my HAM radio. The mounting plate is still installed behind the headliner in case I ever need to mount something on roof.
Im gonna see later if anybody wants to buy my Rago antenna bracket mount

I went and bought a new dash display from a 2014 4runner I think? and installed it using the custom harness from the below thread. It went in easy and I like having the info on the dash. I believe it also displays crawl control info when im using those too.

I also finished installing my air manifold for the compressor and plumbing lines. I havn't run a line to the rear yet.
But you can see how i decided to mount the front quick connect air fitting. I can just hook a hose up in front bumper and air up tires or whatever.

Installed a Summitview rock camera underneath front bumper so you can see over the edge of a drop off or rocks you might hit etc... running into the extra video input of my Kenwood headunit.
I went and bought some universal bracket at the local farm store, cut it down drilled some holes and bent an angle into it. I didn't wanna drill into my freshly powder coated bumper so i figured this was a good alternative. and easy to change or modify like when I get better skid plates later.

I also finished installing my Genesis offroad dual battery system today. It was a bear moving factory wire harness over to get things into position but finally finished it up.
It's a smart system so it disconnects the cranking battery if it drops below 12.7v when car is off. Then once you start vehicle once it sees the cranking battery above 13.7v it reconnects the second battery and starts charging both batteries again. So accessories can run off the secondary battery while car is off while still maintaining the cranking battery to start later.

And yes I am aware of peoples opinion of weight with 2 batteries but you can see all the other corners under the hood are full with other things so this was the best thing to do I think. I talked to the owner and he says its never been an issue.
