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

Finally test fit my cargo box prior to our family vacation coming up.

Wouldn't it interfere with the knee airbag in that position?
Never thought of that honestly. I'll have to look into it.
I'd be nervous about that, for sure. And, I feel like it would just be annoying on the day to day too.

It's not annoying. Everybody says "what about your knee?" but I'm 6'3 and have about 7 inches between it and my knee. I don't know how you would hit it honestly.
 
Mounted an H3R dry chemical extinguisher to the jack cubbyhole cover plate.
Used the supplied mount, hopefully stays put, I'll find out this weekend when I hit the trail.

I bought one and brought it home!

A nice Trail in gray with KDSS! It's quite a change coming from my RX8 but i think it will probably get better mileage.

Nice extinguisher, I want one of those.

Not trying to be a negative Nancy but I'd be really hesitant about mounting it to that door panel. I've had that knocked off by the toolkit when I forgot to strap it down inside that compartment. That five pounds or so of extinguisher has the potential to do some serious damage in the event of any sudden deceleration or direction change. Those plastic clips aren't designed to hold any sort of weight.

Yeah I've been thinking about turning the panel into a door with some hinges.
 
Went from Opt7 LED in the oem foglight housing to Morimoto XB type Ts. The morimotos give off a 5k HID look while the Opt7s gave off a whiter 6k. The morimotos cut down glare big time and have a nice focused cut off line when up against a wall. I'm glad I made the switch. No more blinding oncoming traffic. Much more useable lighting

Can you post a pic of the light output against a wall please? I've never had a good experience with LED's as a replacement.

5ft away from my garage wall top is foglights off and bottom pics are with them on.

I still need to adjust the height on them. I hope these pics help you and whoever is planning on getting these decide. My opt7 LED setup in the oem reflector housing had a lot more glare that would scatter upwards above my low beams. Even with them aimed all the way down it would blind oncoming traffic.

Seems like this thread is dead but I need some help. I got the Bilstein 5100 adjustable shocks put on my 2015 SR5 4x2 4Runner and had them put it on the second setting which is 0.85 to level of but the front is way high compared to the rear?

Total put this in the wrong thread but this is what I did today lol.
