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

Installed some LED DRL's last night. Here are a few iPhone pictures of my dirty 4Runner after the install last night.
The lights are from Aiden James Customs
Home

They were very easy to install, and the directions were very good, and precise. Took me about 2.5 hours, but that is because I took my time, and made sure all wiring was zip tied, hidden and looked factory.

The kit that Aiden James gives is AMAZING quality! OEM foglight housing, with LED's already installed, and wired beautifully! VERY quality work, up to my standards, by far! The kit also comes with the correct length of wiring, loomed, and all connections ready to connect, and VERY self explanatory, especially with the very detailed instructions. Trickiest part was separating the relay box bottom from the housing to tap a wire in that box. It was easy, but I wanted to make sure not to break tabs.

Very happy with the kit and customer service. Only downside to ordering was the 7-10 day custom-made-to-order wait time that really took 25 days.... BUT SO WORTH IT!

What do these kits cost? Id be very interested in doing these rather than the stock ugly half lit high beams.

Looks great! Do they stay on 100% or dim when you turn on headlights?
 
Got the color matched body molding from Sportwing.com. The color is dead on and has less orange peel than the factory paint. Great packaging so nothing gets damaged on the way here. Should provide protection for those tight parking spots!

When are you taking it to the dirt to test out that new suspension?

Not sure, I wanted to wait till I got bigger wheels and tires as well, but the wheels I want (SCS SR8 or RAY10) aren't in stock/released. My friend and I might be going to Anza Borrego some time after to try it out if I decide to wait and roll stock for a minute.

This was myself trying to follow him through Corral Canyon OHV Area completely stock.

I know. I'm sorta more worried they'll damage some else's vehicle with my bumpers than doing damage to my vehicle. I'll find out tomorrow.

I worry about paint chips on the door edge from them slamming it into the vehicle next to them in those very tight spaces. Or pulling a ferris bueller! Check your skid plates too lol!
 
New owner...some upgrades

First time 4Runner buyer...sold my LR3 and got this last week. Love it...put on a set of BF KO'2s, a KAUT roof rack, and built a sleeping platform for the trailheads. The rear section has storage underneath and the front disconnects when not in use. I have Hefty sliders on order and waiting for the redesigned Bilsteins 6112's to come out in June for the 4runner

Was your brother calling and you punched the screen attempting to "ignore" ?



Let us know the dealer price for a new headunit


Ha that was me texting asking her WTH happened. She snapped that real quick when in traffic of her commute.

Was told it just "happened" declining a call or something. We have HMI touch screen at work and if this happens means a grumpy mechanic took a wrench to the screen. Not a 120 lb (ish lol) female declining a call with her index finger.

Almost everyone was gone at Toyota when I got there so the service guy and tech did all they could took info and pictures and will be calling me tomorrow. It has warranty left (2015) so who knows. I've owned this thing all of 3 weeks. The number of $4500 was mentioned :/
