If you need help with something on your truck let me know! I think thats the least I can do for what you did for our country.

Actually currently I have two questions. First is what could be causing my gauge cluster to have no light. I've checked fuses and all seem to be good. Second how do u take off the back license plate thing I would like to paint it.

 

[SkylineGTRracer]

Maybe a bulb burnt out. My friend has the same problem on his saturn. As for the second, if its anything like my truck you'll have to take the cover of the door and undo some nuts on the back.

 

[Champ1415]

K and how do u take off the back panel checked my manual it's lacking alot of details

 

[SkylineGTRracer]

If you have a pull down strap (going by my truck) you unbolt that and simply pull it off then up.

Thanks for the tips I'll try them when I get home. If my wife and son allow

The past three days I've been installing all of this audio equipment. Let me tell you by far my least favorite job.

- Alpine 6.5" speakers
- Pioneer 4 channel 650w amp
- Pioneer 2 channel 750w amp
- Kicker 10" enclosed sub box

Did I say that I absolutely hate audio
Problems that came up.
- busted 2 of my seat bolt anchors
Any suggestions on how to fix this problem.

Tomorrow I plan on checking out these rims and if they work paint or powdercoat them black.

Any suggestions/ help would be much appreciated.

Ive always like those wheels on the 4runners. I wouldnt pay more then about 200 for those cause they come up on cl pretty regularly. If you can get them cheap pick them up!

 

[liv2bike]

just wanted to thank-you for your service brother. God Bless you and your family. Looking forward to following your build. I have to live vicariously through all of y'all since my runner will probably stay stock...4 kids including newborn twins...the fam comes first! all I have done is racked her to carry 4 bikes on the roof. good luck mate!

 

[Champ1415]

Thanks guys and I can't find any under 350. So I talked this guy to 300 which is great for my budget. Any ideas on how to fix my seat problem

Take some pictures so we can see what kind of problem you are working with.

 

[Champ1415]

I can't really take a picture of the problem. The 2 front bolts that secure the seat rails are broken. They snapped the welded nut loose.

My new rims in the process of getting painted.

Then my new rims after the first coat of paint.
