I swore at it when it stumbled as it started up and reminded it that as far as reliable quality vehicles goes it's the worst I've ever owned.
 
Today the girl got some new shoes. Finally PULLED the trigger(HCF) a few days ago and painted the wheels. I'll take better pictures later

. Also found out that the rack and pinion is started to leak into the boot?
 
Cool! Where did you get that? Was the installation tough?
It's a stock Toyota part. Part No. 74110-35010-B0. I found it on eBay for about $30.

Installation took 5 minutes and did not require any tools. You open the center console and then just lift/pop out the trim around the shifter which contains the ashtray. Unplug the power socket and lift the trim piece away. The "ashtray" with the power outlet has four clips and you just pop it out from the trim piece.

The new ashtray has two sockets. If you look at the socket on the wiring harness which you unplugged, there should be another socket taped to it, out of the way. Remove the tape so it's loose too.

Snap the new ashtray module in the trim piece. Plug in the two sockets from the wiring harness. One is bigger than the other so it's VERY obvious which plugs into which socket in the ashtray. Then you just pop the trim piece back into place and you're done.

It literally took me longer to type this than it did to swap the two pieces out. (I suck at typing though :pound:)
 
This was something I have been meaning to do, so I did it. Got some 3M headlight restore from advanced auto parts.

It took about an hour for both lights. Came out pretty well.

Both lights
 
The Lightforce 170's got shipped today, should be here by next Wednesday. I Am not an expert on electrical wiring so I need some help from guys who have a similar setup, primarily use with lightforce.

lightforce has their own wiring loom that gets all the electrical going but I'm not sure if I can connect all 4 lights to one loom and switch. Anyone have any experience wiring up roof lights and would be willing to give me some tips on what to get, I would greatly appreciate that!

Now that you got them restored seal them with some OPT Opti-Lens. It's expensive, but holds up much better than any if the regular sealants tag come in the kits.
