I will have them on one of my rigs soon. It's hard to justify throwing away the 10 month old set of 285-70-17 Coopers I am running right now....so if someone would just cough up $600 for the set of 5 I will toss the 255s on. :nerd:

Mod #29
Removed my old turn signals (nice looking but lacking in quality) and replaced them with some higher quality dual LED
The triangle ones have gone out on me a few times, due inpart to the 28 gauge wire they use.
So now I have these.
Old (nicer looking IMO) lights, before swap for reference.
I will be running rigid front turn signals on my TE, but since the holes were already there on this one, I opted for the super bright 3/4 lights.

Great build - thanks for the feedback on the coopers - not replacing mine quite yet, but good info for the future.
Do you have a link for the grill - I like the TRD Pro-esque look

You can search on this forum for "raptor grill" a guy on the tacoma forums [MENTION=85435]HomerTaco[/MENTION]
I am still waiting for a second one for my other 5th gen, I wanted to have it by summit, but we leave in 3 weeks, so it does not look real plausible. Craig does this on the side, and he need to do them in batches, and so far to the best of my knowledge, not enough people have committed for a second batch.

Mod #31. Making nave look a little more OEM
So I was messing around with my TE head unit, and I realized that the TE NAV knobs fit my aftermarket NAV. So a quick search gave me part number 90010-26010 for a whopping $1.96 each. Shipped for the pair was < $6.
Anyway, there was no modification to be made, just pull off the Camry knobs and slide on the T4R knobs.
Here is a before
And here is an after.
I could have gotten the pair for less than $4 had I went to the dealer, but the couple bucks was worth my time.
In the end, all the knobs match now, and most people would be hard pressed to figure out the NAV was not stock.

Still waiting on the Rocktek Front bumper and ShrockWorks rear to be finished.
Where did you get the TE rims from?
I got mine at a dealer in Weatherford TX. This rim comes on the TE 4Runner and the Base model 2010-2013 FJ Cruiser. So there are plenty of them out there if you watch craigslist.
here is s set in Dallas right now..

Raptor Grill by [MENTION=85435]HomerTaco[/MENTION]
I wanted one of these for both my 5th gens, and this one was for my TE, but I have a good wife and when she wants something I try to accommodate.

Can I just say I have asked HomerTaco several times about a grill for not just my 4th gen but others and he said he wouldn't. In short it sucks and I'm extremely jealous of your runner. It looks great

Thanks man.
Yea, Craig will only do these when he can get enough people to buy to justify him doing a new design. he has to have 10 people buying and a test vehicle.
we were luck he even did the 5th gen, he really only does taco stuff.
