Any chance you have more photos of under the seat? I cannot find many photos or a vide showing this installed on a power seat. Looking under my passenger seat, I see a wealth of wiring from the power seat module. Would love to know what gets in the way, if seat movement is limited at all, and what that side piece is with a perfect cutout for the compressor nozzle?
Thank you,
Jordan

I don't have any pics...
but there are 3 wires for the power seat (Airbag / Power / Heat) and you can tuck them over the seat frame (I didn't do this) or just use more seat jackers between the seat and the Desert Doest It frame, which gives you more clearance between the seat bottom and the air compressor.
There is zero limitation on seat movement.
Nothing gets in the way.
The 4Runner power seat only fits a the single smaller ARB compressor.

Nice to see a fellow tow rig
Spent our summer hitched up as well...
That's awesome! Just got the trailer this Nov so its been dry camping to date. Really looking forward to the spring/summer season...might see you out there!
No kidding!
I found the speakers. But it’d be nice if he said how he handled the crossover/pass through.
I put in the Subaru ones a long time ago, but always wondered if more range would be better for sound imaging.

Pictures not loading... :biggrin2:
Finished extracting the KARR alarm the dealer installed back in 2012 or so. Deactivation plug was in, but it just bothered me like a "benign" tumor in there.
Most of the work was removing the lower dash to access all those wire taps. Left the taps in place. They are not exposed contacts and did not want to risk damaging the wires. All that old electrical tape leaving black gunk everywhere did not improve my opinion of dealers that sneak this crap in on you.
The start disconnect I had to just jumper and coil the plug and cable out of harm's way. It snakes over to the passenger side and I am not in a mood to tear things apart over there.
Likely just file this under a "feel good" mod as it was apparently causing no issues. Assumed there was no battery drain, but I came back after two months to find the battery dead, so that damn thing had to come out.

Installed the Diode Dynamics SSC3 Pro Amber Fogs snatched from BF and gave it a good wash down. Boy do those fogs light up! I can't imagine driving without them now.
Waiting for the following to arrive:

Well, I will reply with what I did (followed other threads, you tube, etc)...
I looked at those same speakers but ended up with some MB Quart: Amazon.com: MB Quart FKB108 Formula Series 2-Way Coaxial Speakers (3.5"), 9.90in. x 5.90in. x 2.80in. : Electronics
I also used a wire harness to connect to Toyota harness: Amazon.com: RED WOLF Replacement for 2012-2019 Toyota Corolla, 2008-2019 Toyota Highlander, Subaru 2012-2020 Car Front Center Dash Pro Tweeter Audio Speaker Wiring Harness Factory Speaker Connector 1 Pair : Electronics
I added the bass filter: Amazon.com: Pair of BB99 Audiopipe in Line Noise Filter Speaker Bass Blocker 4 OHM Blockers : Electronics
There is a thread about adding a 3.5" speaker in the dash. Only modification was cutting the plastic on the inside of the screen. I used a dremel and it was a simple process. I bought a piece of metal strapping: Amazon.com: Install Bay 9 Inch Metal Mounting Strap - BS9 and cut a small piece to bolt to speaker bracket and attach to one hole on dash. Wish I would have taken picks, but I was following another thread. I'll edit if I can find it again.
Hope that helps some...

Had to get those bass filters from eBay though.
