Changed the color of my clock, and fixed the lighter light:

I found the rear halogen Dome light bulb that has been rattling around up in the rear headliner for a few months.

When I reached to remove it while installing my LEDs for the interior the little sucker poped loose and went up in the headliner. It has been quiet for awhile but started rattling again. So, this time I pounded on the plastic trim until I heard it settle near the rear edge. I pryed a section open and there it was...

I pulled it out and threw the little fugger as far as I could....LOL!!!
 
heres the pics

Ok so this weekend I fixed the damage to the front end (see my post ouch!)
I fitted a 99 console.
I removed the running Boards
I adapted the center bezel to hold a 3 12v an 1 5v usb hub (removed the ashtray)

Pictures to follow there on my iPaperweight and I can't download them!!!!

OK iPaperweight is back working

Fixed my leak??? I hope

Think I found and fixed the source of the wet carpet in the driverside footwell. Front sunroof drains were plugged on both sides. Ran about 5ft + of plastic tube down it and blew it out with compressed air. Waiting for the next storm.:beer:

i pulled my broken ARB locker out and put the stock 3rd back in... sending the locker back to ARB for either a rebuild or hopefully a new unit.
 
Installed lift, not today but finally got pics. TRD coils and bilsteins up front, LC 7.5/8 wraps and bilsteins in the rear.

That looks good, Dinabox!

Today I made an offer on some reman'd Fuel Injectors on eBay... Hopefully it all works out. After reading reviews of the seller (a few of them with the 5vz injectors) I am hopeful that they're a good product.
 
Scored some 231mm calipers off a Sequoia from my buddy at a wrecker! Need to order some rotors, pads, and new brake hoses (DOT marked as that's a potential issue with my RHD and the local police), and a longer rear brake hose while I'm at it for the install.

I took mine for a drive into the city today. On my way home, I stop at the Post office, and some 60yr old lady comes up, tells me that my truck is REALLY NICE, and that she wants to buy one just like it! :)

HA HA! Now if I can only get some younger women to oogle over it..... lol!
