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

Happen to know if these will fit the 10-13 as well? Would be nice to have an OEM unit instead of the stick-on mirror.



Sorry, I don't know if they would fit those model years. I wasn't sure they would fit my '16 when I ordered them! If the mirror shape on the older models is the same and the mounting method is the same I suppose it would work. Maybe someone posted a video on YouTube showing how to replace broken mirrors on the older models - if so, you could see if the mount is the same. Then all you would need to worry about is the shape. If there is a Toyota dealer nearby, pull your 4R next to a new RAV4 and compare mirrors - just a thought...

I see a lot of 4Rs on the 395. This was even more than usual.

Went browsing around the local auto parts store. Found a 90 degree exhaust pipe for $7 and a $3 clamp and decided that was much cheaper than the Magnaflow system I have been wanting.

Sorry for the sideways pics. I am not sure why it loads them that way.



That's what I should have done but instead I spent $60 for a tip and to get it welded. But I hated that fume smell from the v8 with the neck window down

Let There Be Light!

Installed these babies today - blue interior LEDs. Very easy install since it comes with the tools and there is a YouTube video from PrecisionLED that walks you through step by step

Rolled into Big Bear Lake, thinking it would be more quiet on a Sunday night. Learning that this is an overcrowded circle of water that makes Summit county, CO look deserted even on weekends. Ah well, we will camp with the RV's tonight before moving on first thing tomorrow.


Last nights camp was the exact opposite, rolled in after dark and not a soul for many miles. Funniest thing was some super lifted Jeeps laughing at my 4Runner as I passed them when I came up the same trail they did, only I did it in the dark the night before. :flipoff:
 
I have not seen the blues installed yet. I hope you are going to post some night shots.

I have a few already but my phone captures purple and the color really is a solid blue so I didn't want to throw off anyone. But I mean, since you asked take a look (not sure why the bottom phone will only post sideways)

Where did you camp and how was the fishing?

camped at one of the campsite near lower twin lake. Paha campground. My buddy had it reserved beginning of the year since it gets book quick however at the moment there are plenty of open spot.

Fishing was slow. I manage to get a few each day but worked hard for them. Bring nightcrawler and tip your lure if you do any kind of trolling. They are still down deep but will move up in a few weeks.

Good luck and have fun if you do
 
New bikes

Bought the wife and I some new bikes and a bike rack as well. Haven't ridden a bike in over 10 years. Should be fun. I think?

Always a little bummed to see cheap bikes on extremely nice vehicles. If you do enjoy riding please stop by your local bike shop to check our their bikes. They might be more than Walmart but they will work right and will last much longer. And they will have been built by mechanics and not the guy that builds lawn equipment :banana::banana:
 
Today I permanently wired my SiriusXM Sportster 5 radio. I moved the AUX and USB outlets behind the cubby and drilled through the back to feed the wires. I'm using this instead of the built in XM radio because I have a lifetime subscription for the Sportster.

Im no lance armstrong but I think $400 worth of bikes is plenty good to ride around the neighborhood occasionally. Next time i ride the tour de france ill shell out a little more
 
Heart Attack Hill. Kelly Flats, CO.

Couple shots from today. Unfortunately the five foot high wheel at the top of the hill was too scary for even my photographer (girlfriend) and she missed the shot. These will suffice haha!
