What did you do with your 4runner today?

That is surprising, I was shocked when I noticed my SMD bulb was out. Hoping that spare I found is blue and not white ray2:

Well, the bulb I found was white, but after I put everything back together, I found my pack of spare blue SMD's so I ripped everything back out and replaced the bulb

Mine burnt out too for one of my hvac bulbs, and my shifter light flickers. It's annoying as hell but I don't have time to fix it.

Dude, 5 mins tops, man up, you're Mr. LED

Yeah I know... I just don't want to take the 3 minutes to call superbrightleds to ask for a replacement because it burnt out.

I'm the epitome of lazy when I'm not working on someone else's vehicle. My truck is full of trash and tools and random shit. I really need to take a black trash bag outside and just empty all the crap, take all my clothes out (removed layers from living in the constantly changing New England climate) and organize everything like how I had it before I started wheeling it. Back when it was a stock-height brodozer, scratch free, and I thought my Westin brush guard was the greatest thing ever.

I just have no time for vehicle maintenance lately... Coffee cups and bags litter the husky liners... It's a damn mess and I'm gonna make it a point that I shovel out the interior and detail all the dirt and dust out of it this weekend.

 

[97BlackAckCL]

Yeah, I've bought every type of LED bulb they've ever made, and I've never once bothered to ask for replacements. I hear ya. Definitely need to give the interior some lovin and attention though Alex

Mine isn't quite THAT bad, but it's bad too. I understand that feeling. I really need to fix some of my body damage. gonna try and repaint a panel myself, see how that one goes. I need to do a DEEP CLEAN. I pulle dthe seats and cleaned it in AUgust, dirty as hell again. I blame the philly trash, it seeps through my doors and windows

 

[Ghostrunnerr]

:behindsofa: I broke two of the bolts holding the rear sway bar brackets to the frame because i was lazy and impacted the crap out of them, Whoops. Lesson learned.

Luckily they were the ones with the hooks so the sway bar lives another day

Yup that's the same bolt that broke on mine..just ended up drilling it out and putting another bolt thru..good part is there's enough space to put a nut to make it work

Yeah man. New Jersey trash still shows up in my interior... uke:

I would ask for replacements, but it's only a few bucks, plus I'm changing my interior to red, so no sense getting more blue... Lol.

I'm definitely gonna give it some attention before the first heavy snow shows up. It's been snowing all morning and I'm having a LOT of fun! My school doesn't plow the parking lot.

This is a great idea. I'll do it when I do my rear shocks.

Hey! That's my home state :rockthrow:
Good thing I bought front weather techs last week before the storm. Much more coverage than my OEM all weather mats and much better design. The OEM ones trap dirt between the ridges. Tried to pawn them off on my dad, he has the carpet mats from 225k ago and literally has an inch deep crater in the floor where his heel sits..

I would ask for replacements...

I once asked the guy that did my gauges for some replacement LED's to fix the burned out ones. Never heard back from him... Just sayin

He's busy not cleaning his truck out :sing:

 

[subspd]

I appreciate the comments and support but, I don't think it will be as extent and as many mods as some of the guys here.. Which don't get me wrong, I love to admire...


Ahhh... Maybe I will, just for the heck of it.. lol

Go for it! Also where did you get the ladder from? Would love to see it installed... I want one so bad.

Thank you for the encouragement Sir :yo: I did in fact start one, the link is in my sig. I purchased the ladder new from a member whom purchased it, and never got around to installing it due to selling his 4runner.

I am going to try my best to install it this week, that way I can throw some pictures up. I tried to set some time aside this weekend, but it didn't work.. :mad2:

 

[subspd]

Understood. Wow what a deal getting that ladder. Was that on the classifieds here? So jealous I missed it...

Yes it was, but as for a deal? When it was all said and done, it came out to about 20 Dollars less than the going price of a new one... No harm done... eace: Either way, I can't wait to install it...

[riceandpho]

preparing for my quad retrofit. debating on ordering new lights to retrofit them into.

BMW E60 BiXenon on left, cheapo Morimoto Mini H1 projector on right
3" projector metal body vs 2" plastic body








playing with idea of red led inside projector or white halo

e55 projectors is better, but a mix of them for the quad set is good. having 2 different projectors for quads are better than having just 4 of the same kind.

 

[riceandpho]

Details?

Started my retrofit - prepper all the chrome for paint and test fitted the projectors

any progress on the retrofit?

 

[superman3043]

White for my temp gauge and shift gate needle & back lights. I'll PM u my address since it's changed since I did my gauges. Thanks man.

 

[zopperman]

Since you asked, here are a few more teasers

Painted the shrouds and figured out how I'm gonna mount the halos, details will be in my retrofit thread.







also, ETA - for [MENTION=87539]wnelax04sr5[/MENTION] and I orderd our billies the same day. My rears just came and the front c/os (just regular eibach springs and 5100s) will be here Thursday.
