Switch All interior lights to LED. Was a blast to do, not the least bit complicated and looks fantastic. My Aftermarket CD player has blue lights and i stuck with blue for all lights except for the Gauge cluster. I went with white for the guage cluster and it looks extremely bright and clean. I think puting blue or red lights in the Guage cluster looks a little too "Tuner" like something I would see on a gross honda civic.

Did you go with cool white or another type of white? I've been meaning to switch mine to cool white, it looks so much more modern. Any pics of the gauges?
 
Installed a new air filter, the old one didn't look too bad.

thx man. Yea I like it better without the kickout. You remember what happen with that giant kickout at the High Lakes lol. Stuck on the rock.
 
lol yup that sucked. so that guy called me about fabbing the sliders and he said he just had shoulder surgery so it's gonna have to wait. Funds permitting, it will be a while longer for me. Also, I'm now trying to diagnose something wrong in the engine :frusty:. Gonna grab a stethoscope to try and pinpoint where this noise is coming from.
 
installed my new(to me) SR5 flares i bought from [MENTION=66735]PitbullRescuer[/MENTION]. they look awesome

Random question. I'm doing a mini tune up tomorrow but I don't have any throttle body cleaner or carb cleaner. Can I use MAF cleaner or starter fluid to clean the throttle body?
 
Finally stripped all of the extras back off of the truck ...

No more: jack, shovel, gas cans, fridge, or bed. Now that I can get to it, I just need to actually detail it.
 
I've been wanting to buy some new wheels, but just spent my wheel money on the group buy for retrofit HID kit. So, I decided to paint my wheels...to give them a new look. After reading about several others painting their wheels black with plastic-dip...I decided to go that way.

I painted them with the wheels still on my Runner. Very happy how they turned out. (The picture did turn out very good) Hopefully they we stay nice looking until I can afford some new wheels.
