Got dirty

Washed it and installed some Raptor-style lights I got for Christmas.

Looks great!

Which fuse did you tap into on your ‘20?

I used the 10a ignition fuse on the inside fuse box for now, so they are on anytime the vehicle is running. I’m going to redo the wiring when I get a chance as I’d like to tap into the parking lights.
 
More buttons

GPS Navigation button to re-enable the built-in navigation if I ever want to, since I've bypassed the motion-lockout of bluetooth and other features of the stock entertainment system:

Both new buttons together:

Garager door opener button in the stock SOS location. This took a bit of fabrication on the backside of the overhead console (sorry the first is out of focus). It's a stock 4Runner in a garage. I also modified the button to light both LEDs with the dash lights, because of its horizontal orientation:

Same. The IJN(?) one in the engine fuse box can't be used because the add a fuse adapter is too tall to let the lid close, so I ended up running it through that small black unused plug in the firewall and hooking up to the 10a ignition fuse inside.

I might redo mine as well, I was not super happy with the wiring. This was the Seven Sparta kit from Amazon.

Same here. Like the way the lights secured into the grille, just seems like the wiring is subpar. Would like to route and secure all of the wiring better when I have more time.

Did you know you can deactivate the DRLs through the head-unit? After installing the amber grille lights, I thought it looked great w/ the parking lights. The amber really stands out in a good way.
 
Installed the Wits' End Fire Extinguisher Mount

Very easy install, really like the location in the event of an emergency.

Separate bracket or part of the extinguisher? Looking for a bracket for that spot but want an extinguisher that has a more rounded handle to avoid snags on clothing. Also considering mounting it in the cargo wall if the plastic could be reinforced somehow...

The bracket comes with the extinguisher. You bolt the bracket onto the mount. The mount comes pre-drilled with a tone of holes to match up with brackets from all of the different types of fire extinguishers.
 
Do you mind if I ask where you got the Toyota Stripe emblem and if you can send me a link?

Look on ebay. It's the TRD Pro grill. OEM on the Pro and about $600 from Toyota however there is a Chinese knockoff for about $100 and it's next to impossible to tell the difference.

Started blacking out the roof rack.
Used vinyl wrap on the bars. They came out really good (except one tiny spot that I will always see).
Wrap on the end caps is a bit more difficult, for me. I've never wrapped before.
I may paint them.
After photo to follow, here's before.

Looks awesome, especially the garage door opener! Sent you a PM with some questions.
 
I got my lighting dialed in and operational! Slowly coming together!

-H9 mod (well worth doing before dropping big bucks on bulbs)
-Finally wired in my raptor lights
-Diode Dynamics SS3 sport fogs
