I've spent far too much money at SuperBrightLEDs. The quality of their bulbs is really bad... the bulbs are always breaking. I've switched to buying bulbs from AliExpress. This is the one I chose: https://tinyurl.com/ybdgslvr
Actually all my exterior bulbs are the 'NAO' brand.
EDIT: If you follow the below chart, the NAO bulb outputs ~1875 Lumens vs ~648 Lumens from the SuperBrightLEDs bulb. #sketchymath

I tried to open my sunroof and it didn't work! So I got pissed and tried to help the window along but that didn't seem to do anything.
A few weeks ago I opened it, and noticed a shit load of crud in the rails and the sunroof area but I told myself Id clean it out later. Now the damn thing is seized up! Damnit!
Plus some drain is leaking and getting the headliner wet in some places, so Im thinking Im going to have to remove the headliner this weekend, and hopefully get the sunroof glass out to clean it!

Well i got to drive it!!
Blew the head gasket in Feb..finally, got this motor in a couple of weeks ago/ =)
Feels great to be driving her again!!
oh, smooshed a couple of things getting her out, lol. If you do this with a bumper on good chance you'll smash your condenser like it did. haha

ummmm some vw crosshairs. i used the old factory buckets. I really need to make a surround for them to clean it up. I always liked the old round headlight look. They make a kit for some of the Landcruisers but i never found anything for a 4runner.

Yeah I've thought about something like this, but was wondering how to like you say "clean it up". Nice to see guys breaking away from the norm and engineering some cool stuff.

Installed my modified FJ Cruiser automatic shift knob to match the transfer case knob

I'm not much on aftermarket steering wheels but I really like the way that looks, what is it and how did you install it.

NO airbag I guess, but looks cool.
The steering wheel is a Grip Royal wheel, I do not recommend them as the leather deteriorated and began to peel a couple months after getting it. The hub is a Momo hub https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009IZAHCY/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got the steering wheel because it resembled the Nardi Classic which is one of my favorite designs https://jhpusa.com/products/nardi-classic-330mm-steering-wheel-black-leather-silver-spokes-grey-stitch
The steering wheel will be replaced some time in the near future with either a Momo https://www.momo.com/en-us/product/race/ or Nardi.
Install was straight forward with removal of the Airbag after disconnecting the battery and pulling the old wheel off. I chose not to keep cruise control so I didn't worry about remounting that control stalk. The adapter comes with a clock spring contact point and two wires to connect for the horn button on the new wheel. You will need a resistor ( I think 3 ohm) to plug into your air bag connector to allow your passenger airbag to still function and prevent an airbag light from being constantly illuminated on your dash.

Installed some ‘99 tall springs, at only 134k my truck was sagging quite a lot actually and I gained 3 inches of lift up front, 4 in the rear. Very happy.
