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

Not today, but last Friday I finally got the lift installed. Bilstein 5100's and ARB Old Man Emu coils all around. 4WP of Stockton had a 50% off installation deal.

It looks like the Stockton 4WP have the 50% off installation again until this Friday.

Upgraded the subwoofer. Tight fit, removed some internal bracing, added poly-fil. Response is much tighter bass, more controlled. Hope the xmax travel doesn't interfere with the side panel.

Installed LED back-up lights, Philips H9 swap for the headlights, and Philips 9005 for hi-beams. Ordered Katur 9006 LED yellow foglight bulbs and Lamin-X foglight covers.

Really impressed with the H9 swap, far easier to modify than I originally thought.

Whenever you install those LED fog bulbs, I would be curious on your review!
 
Finished wiring up the light in the Victory 4x4 bumper.

Well, not quite 'Today'... but:

Monday: Joined the Forum after being a long time luker. Started ordering up stuff (RSG Metalworks Rock sliders, and Victory 4x4 roof rack).

Tuesday: Joined the Forum again... [there were some strange issues on Monday that impacted everyone it seems]. Continued ordering stuff (SSO slimline bumper).

Today: Won the fastest order-to-delivery time lottery: I found out that the RSG rock sliders were shipped last night, and will be arriving tomorrow!
 
Just ordered my RCI rock sliders...will post pics once I get them in. So I did nothing to my 4Runner but will do something someday...
 
Bought some headlights off of ebay (not oem) with the intentions of doing my MLED retrofit. However when I opened the headlights, I found out the projectors in these weren't using the same mounting points as the oem ones. Therefore, I couldn't put the MLEDs in without a lot of modifications. Kind of a bummer. Decided to just paint them and use these as my spares while I attempt to modify my OEM headlights.

Hopefully I can get my OEM ones off tomorrow and pulled apart.

Opening up the oem headlights are such a pain. That permaseal is really on there good. Maybe try modifying the ebay halogen projector housing (where the mounting points are) to fit the mled projector. There's a thread on a guy modifying the stock halogen projector mounting points and adapting it to gs350 projectors so they mount in the stock location. If you find the thread you'll know what I'm talking about. Just an idea.
 
I’m hoping someone will post install pics with adding the raptor lights where the wire with add a fuse goes into the 2020 4runner since it is different under the driver side dash. I had Cali led bar on my Tacoma years ago and wiring it was no issue and adding the push button for it. Cali said you still can add the led bar to the 2020 with the safety sense but the black piece below that will block the light of the center part. Also just to get the lower panel off under the steering wheel not sure on that. Maybe soon might see some more info.
