Veet Skeet's '14 MGM Trail Edition Build!

[emporerofathens]

Sweet rig man! Just curious on how you integrated the aftermarket audio setup (speakers, amp & sub to factory head unit)? It looks like you retained the factory head unit. I have replaced all my speakers as well and am going to amp them. Did you use a digital processor? (JL Audio Cleansweep or Rockford Fosgate 3sixty.3) I ended up going to an aftermarket head unit but was not impressed so I am going back to factory. The fit and finish is just so much better OEM.

Thank you! You know what, to be honest I do not know how all that electrical wiring works. I dropped off my car at an audio shop nearby to do all the work for me. Sorry I can't help you with that stuff unfortunately.

Awesome ride!

How much of a rake do you think you have in the back there compared to the front?

The back is very slightly higher than the back. I haven't measured so I don't know exactly how much though.

Very nice truck. I saw one of the Toyota Instagram accounts (not the company, but an account dedicated to badass rigs) posted a pic of your stuff.

Very very nice, man.

Moving along nicely! I want... NEED a Gobi rack in my life. Haha

Haha thanks man! I always tag those pages.

Do you remember which page exactly?

Yeah the GOBI is awesome! It makes the truck look so much more rugged and off road looking instead of mall crawler/soccer mom looking. Also with the ladder makes it look like you are going on a safari or something haha.

Definitely worth the wait!

Haha I am the most impatient person out there. But I waited about 2 months for mine, which is longer than the 6 weeks they tell you upfront. But when it came it all of my impatience and anxiousness went away and turned into pure happiness.

Yeah, it was the @everythingtoyotas page.

Yeah, it was the @everythingtoyotas page.

Ahhh gotcha. Yeah they were the most recent ones to repost one of my pics of my truck

I'm sure dude! Anyway, nice rig. I might use yours as inspiration when I finally get mine. You've done good.

Right.. Ordered 6/19.. But I can't wait. Positive note also is that when I called for an update they informed me they install for free since I'm local. Can't complain about that!

Veet - that is one of the best looking rigs I've seen. I think a few of the others are a bit over the top. Yours just seems like it's all you need, nothing you don't. Great inspiration man - thanks for taking the time to post those pics!!

Thank you for all the compliments! Makes me feel good knowing that people like my taste as well haha.

Best of luck on your build when you get your truck.

Yeah can't complain at all!

I installed the whole thing by myself... Lifting that whole roof rack and getting it on the roof all lined up was not the easiest thing to do by myself, but i got it done somehow haha.

The install is actually not as bad or intimidating as it seems. Very straight forward. If anything the ladder was a little bit more complicated.

Thank you so much! That means a lot to me. I definitely have seen my fair share of awesome rigs on these forums. It's great!

I love to take photos, so that's why I have so many photos posted in my build thread haha. Hope it's not too much overload.
