What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

it's ok. I had my wife 90% convinced to buy a used 2011 Lexus ISF. But then when we test fitted the rear facing baby seat she said hell no!

:(

Hence 4runner now.
 
Installed Icon Stage 1 lift and washed her. Super stoked!

This past Friday in between all of the holiday events I went exploring some of the "Tennessee Dirt Devil". It is basically a 200 mile series of old country roads in middle Tennessee that a Dual Sport rider put together. Mostly hard packed dirt roads with lots of creek crossings.

Funny, I have homelink but have never bothered to set it up, just carry the garage door opener with me...

Set that bad boy up!!! On my previous car I set up homelink and the range was way better than my clicker. Not sure how the 4runner's range is, but it's worth a shot...plus it cleans up your rig and gives a James bond vibe to your runner. That last bit is a stretch because James bonds buttons shot missiles and what not, ours just opens garage doors. Hahahah
 
Installed Lift and uca.. . That was an adventure, was my first time doing and by myself. Well, not really by myself as i was guided by the many great
post in thus forum.
 
Funny that this got brought up. Most houses have 2 garage doors. There are 3 buttons. Here is a puzzle and a project. Program 2 buttons for each door and third button to open both doors at the same time. It is possible because I've done it. GL :)
 
Gave it a bath and found the limits of the rear departure angle

Busy week trying to get things done.

I finished some of this up today. Most of this has been finished this week.

1. Dual Battery setup, National Luna.
Pretty basic setup.

2. 20 Led light bar

3. Grillcraft front grill I had to do this so the Light would sit back on the
bumper. The Toyota
symbol stuck out to far.


4. Bussmann PDM box.(150303) I thought of the Spod but wanted something smaller and as a bonus I get 5 extra fused wires. Seemed more versatile.

5. Switches installed inside. I finally found a use for the space under the door... Items would constantly fall out of there.

Took it in for the 15K service, AKA 1.5 hours of wasted time to rotate tires and "wash" the car. Thinking about just skipping my last Toyota Care-not-so-much service and start doing it myself again. Even if it is one more free oil change.
