What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks good! Have a link to the specific led's you used? They don't seem to produce much hot spots or shaded areas like some led's do.

I Pm'd him asking the same. Said he got them from superbrightLED.

Thanks. I've seen the chart, actually have it bookmarked. Depending where you buy them, some places may have different styles of led bulbs that are the same size. Some fit, others don't and some create a washout look. His looked good so I was just seeing specifically what he ordered but since SBLED only carries one kind of size 24 I guess I know my answer

Yeah. I was just trying to figure out which to get for some of the other sizes. Those have 'multiple guess'.

I have the exact same bulbs in mine and they don't look quite that good. I'm wondering if he used the wax paper method to diffuse the light. Or maybe he just got lucky lol.

Go with the 3 LED ones whenever you can. I used the 3 LED ones for the HVAC controls, and it is an improvement over my roommate's, who used the single LED ones.

Sucked out more dirty power steering fluid in efforts to have clean fluid before I change my steering rack this weekend.

 

[Skidmarcx]

Finally swapped in my poly bushings for the LCAs... Such an improvement over the JUNK Autozone bushings!!

 

[Allen130]

Pulled off most of the ugly, flaking gold badges with some Goof Off, fishing line, and my fingernail. I like the minimalist look.

Halloween

I drove my 1997 Toyota 4runner to Wal-Mart to pick up some Halloween Candy. And my I just hit 235,300 miles on my Odometer when I got back home.

They're real gold. Maybe you could make a few bucks.

 

[Bama_Runner]

Bought one of these from Harbor Freight on sale for $8.99.

 

[rideexileex]

Decided to drastically improve the audio capabilities of the runner - and touched up the interior comforts a bit...

Arriving soon:
Wet Okoles for the front
Seat Heater kit to install separate from the seat covers
New 100W RMS x 4 channel amp + install accessories
10W6V2 Sub to replace the 2 12's I took out of the rig once I grew up...
DEH-80PRS headunit, already installed, but about to release its true potential
(and I feel ashamed for this one) 50sqft of fatmat to deaden the doors and reduce sub rattle - I am not going for road silence... I'm getting rid of ghetto rattle

 

[ugamurph]

Steering knuckles, upper and lower ball joints came off if both sides. Slowly working toward new bearings, LR UCAs, LBJs, steering rack and outer tie rod ends.

10W6V2 Sub to replace the 2 12's I took out of the rig once I grew up...

:thumb3:

Haha I am going to do the same thing eventually. Have 2 12" subs sitting in my garage from when I sold my last car, looking to get a shallow 10" into the 4runner eventually.
