  1. Warning/Safety Stickers- Permanent or Removable?

    A flag looks stupid to me, so I would only want the plain matte black. The edges lift = ugly. And I can see right in their own pictures that the corners are plain sharp square, not a rounded corner matching the original label, and you can even see the underlying labels shape right through it so...
  2. Warning/Safety Stickers- Permanent or Removable?

    Maybe a good idea for a way to cover them without just looking like a cover that's almost as ugly as the original sticker, is something that folds open to block the sun lower. When it's folded up, it looks like a functional device and not just a cover, yet it does also cover.
  3. Warning/Safety Stickers- Permanent or Removable?

    I hate those too. Maybe there is some kind of paint or plasti-dip that will actually stick to the vinyl. But they are melted in, no chance to remove them, only cover them one way or another. Hmm, I still have most of this left...
  4. Rival: New Nissan Xterra Approved & Previewed

    “Unfortunately, sometimes we launch a great vehicle, and we don’t have the necessary wiring hookups or a pilot holes to add accessories. And it’s kind of like an afterthought. Should be really upfront in the upstream part of the planning,” I like this. I wish the 4R was better about this. We...
  5. ☔ Sleek In-Channel Low-Profile Window Visors for Your 4Runner

    I normally hate tack-on stuff, but I gotta say these look pretty slick.
  6. Glove box latches to cure rattle (3D print)

    This is great. Thanks for the recipe.
  7. Glove box latches to cure rattle (3D print)

    Well I mean I did write right in the readme: "This version is probably not good to print at home on a normal FDM printer because the tabs will likely break off. So this is really only for getting commercially printed using SLS or MJF." The default version is designed for FDM.
  8. Glove box latches to cure rattle (3D print)

    That print looks really good. What printer do you have?
  9. Grab Handle for drivers A pilar? Any mods?

    Already posted right in this thread way back in September.
  10. Is there a Carista alternative that is cheaper?

    Only cheap in the long run but for about 100-120 you can get a reader/programmer that works on unlimited vehicles forever with no subscription, just the one time purchase. I've already used it twice on different makes & models and spanning different months, so it's already paid for itself as far...
  11. Proper Parking Brake Procedure

    Why are you asking them? That is what they are asking whoever might know, is exactly that. If you know for a fact that there is no difference because you have been inside the trans and can show what happens in both cases, in all possible conditions like hills or cold oil or idling etc, the why...
  12. "...lacks a manual because nobody's asking for it"

    Because there is no such thing as a new 3rd gen, and I don't want a Tacoma, and do want a Toyota. In fact I almost did not "why even buy an automatic". While still shopping I almost got a 2014 FJ just to get at least slightly new kinda-4runner in manual. But a '14 fj is still pretty old and FJ...
  13. "...lacks a manual because nobody's asking for it"

    And I can't stand that I have to use this automatic. It's always not going when I want and going when I don't want, and I never have this problem on my decrepit old 3rd gen, or 1st gen, or any other manual I've ever owned regardless of make or model. I even have the OTT tune now. If anything...
