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

[Karzir]

I installed my dash cam. Ran the cords under the trim. I don't have the know how to hard wire it, so I'll stick with the 12v for now, but I think it looks pretty good.

Is that the street guardian?

I am somewhat of a hands on kind of guy and found that hardwiring my dash camera (a118c) was really simple.

No its a Rexing V1 dash cam. About a $100 on Amazon and it got good reviews so I thought I'd give it a try.

Lol, I helped dad get 20 bags of the red stuff on Friday. Couldn't fit anymore as I had my daughter in the back seat. Had the reverse lift going on.

Buttoning up loose ends today. Installed LED Plate Lights after the 4x4 LABs bumper install. PITA with a wing down!!!

I have the same exact dash cam. I made a little write up on how to hard wire it here:

I finally got around to swapping out the OEM rails for the older TE rails. Here's a link to the install thread: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/217811-te-roof-rail-swap.html

This is what I was working on for the pass 2.5days... Rigid Radiance w/ the back light on. Freaking finish driving around the neighborhood testing out the light bar. It's like day light.

This thing is only 12,348 lumens I can't imagine how bright the E2 series which puts out 20,240 lumens

I've got a blue one ready to go on. Do/Can you drive around with just the backlight on? How did you mount your switched inside?

I ran an AOB switch... and made my own relay harness... I mounted the switch next to the mirror adjustment knob / controller.

The back light is a white wire...so here's how I wired it up if you are asking that.

White wire = red wire to AOB switch
AOB green wire = blue wire on windshield defroster
AOB Black wire = grey wire on windshield defroster
AOB blue wire = green wire on windshield defroster

The back light only requires a 3amps fuse... soo sharing the windshield defroster power should be fine.

Forgive my ignorance, so the AOB switch is to turn the light fully on, and you mounted another switch to turn just the backlight on? Love your rig by the way!

Yes look at my answer above I edited it...

But yes I have one AOB switch for the Light Bar and another for the back light... The light bar has 3 wires, red for power of the light bar, black ground for the light bar, and white for the back light...

Thank you sir for the compliment...
