I haven't used it yet so I can't say for sure. I doubt if the maps look any different though. If they do, I'll let you know after I do. I'll be driving from NY to NC at the end of Aug. and I'll use it then for sure.
What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

For all of you out there who bring your cars to the dealer for oil changes please watch this. He used to work for Toyota for years, he knows what he's talking about. You think they are using Toyota oil? They are not. The more you know.

Great video on DIY guidance and taken true ownership of your car. But, most people dont care or want to know what goes on till the lights come on, whether its a Check Engine light, or maintenance light.
Oil changes are cheap insurance for longevity of an engine.
Coolant changes also. Its not that difficult, just need to schedule a time to get it done.
Biggest issue is Trust. Who do you trust to work on your car if you cant?

^^^ Good advice above. Or, take it to a trusted mechanic who has a name and reputation to uphold.
Another channel to watch if you want to see the carnage that results from poor or no maintenance is I Do Cars. He does a complete tear down of various engines and diagnoses the cause of demise. It can range from hydro locking the engine to low/no oil etc. The videos are very interesting and funny too.
He recently did a Toyota V-6 that had an inspection port mod and piston McNuggets. Kewl!

Got rodents in your rig? Kind of looks like the old style cap for a tube of toothpaste. Maybe brushing after snacking on your underdash wiring? :eyebrows:I took this out of the dash behind cluster.

Thank you. Points of interest isn’t that important to me. But if there are more features or better maps, then I will likely go for it.
Another question. How was the card packaged? When I got mine, it was obviously new, unopened or tampered with, came in a sealed clamshell, in another hard plastic case and quite securely packaged in bubble wrap. I paid $60 for it back then.

Just "massaged" the body mount on the right side. It was just barely contacting the very outer edge of the tread on my new Toyos at compressed full lock.

Canada is included and the maps look the same as far as I can tell.
It came in a sealed clamshell inside of a bubble wrapped envelope. No instructions or anything just the chip.

Finally got around to installing the LEDs gifted me by Auxito Lights. Shipping was quick, install was about as easy as they come, took me maybe 5 minutes!
Two things that I hated that came stock on the 2020 ORP, the speakers (upgraded to a full OEM Audio Plus, HUGE improvement, well worth the money) and the headlights.
Below are the comparison pics, remarkable improvement for a low price. Sure, I’d love to toss in $1400 Morimoto’s and maybe someday I will, but for now, these were a vast improvement over the stock bulbs and a fraction of the cost.
Stock headlights before

I am looking at upgrading my daytime running lights. Got a 2022 Limited here in Canada. Need a 9005 LED bulb that is plug and play and runs daytime and then high beam when needed. Any advice on what works?

I prefer the side exit, and it also frees up space for a lighting project that's coming on the rear bumper.
How does it sound?

Your high-beams are all in the LED projector, they're no longer the same bulbs as the DRL. Basically the LED projectors are on full time, and then a mechanical shutter opens to reveal the high-beams.
If you want a more modern LED DRL, I suggest following the instructions in this post:
My 2022 T4R | Toyota 4Runner Forum [4Runners.com]
You need a low power 9005 bulb (Diode Dynamics HP48 is perfect) and a harness to convert your series wiring to parallel as shown in the post.
