What did you do to your 6th Gen 4Runner today?? 👨🏻‍🔧 🧰 🛠

Looking for more light at your rear hatch? Here is an inexpensive and easy mod. Hatch light available on Amazon. Great for early morning or evening gear offloads.

Hey I bought this for my sr5 without a powered lift gate. I'm not seeing where to connect the wires to. I removed the grab handle trim, but don't see a wire to plug into. Any ideas or help with this? Thanks

I also have a manual liftgate with my SR5 and purchased this. However, when I recieved it, the package arrived without any instructions, and after looking on the Amazon page for the manual liftgate instructions on the Land Cruiser, I decided that this mod is a bit too unfriendly, potentially destructive for my comfort level.

After I submitted a refund request, the seller reached out to me with this video. It sent it back, but this may help you:

Morsk, thanks! I hate recommending mods if they ever result in unhappy folks. For the SR5 this seems like quite a bit of work but potentially worth the effort. I wonder though if the motion activation will work with this hookup. Yota Xpedition advertises a similar product for the Land Cruiser. Not sure about fitment for the 4Runner. Happy trails!​

Awesome thanks for the help

Installed rubber weather strips on both front doors. This helps reduce wind & traffic noise inside the cabin. I can notice the difference lol.

Which length did you purchase? I'm half deaf so I don't hear the noise but my wife notices a little air noise on the passenger side.

I ordered the 2 PC 2.62 feet long they fit perfect. VKQTS Rubber/ Steel B-pillar 31.5"L X 0.55"W X 0.52" thick.

Small thing, but I added some bags that fit in the rear storage area for those small things you always keep in your trunk like jackets, bug spray, trash bags, etc. These two bags fit perfectly in the storage cubbies and I added some velcro tags to know what is in each (also acts as a checklist to refill the item). This keeps things from rattling around, can be removed quick if you need the space. It took a little trial and error to find ones that fit and would still allow you to use the space behind it; so I thought I would save everyone the time if they wanted to do the same.

The length from my link. You'll need to trim a tiny excess with scissor or metal snipper.

Installed Alpharex Nova OG-Style headlights. Took about 3 hours. Most time spent was running the harness for DRL & fuses. I chose to keep the white color on the "eyebrow" to match my raptor light. Had to adjust the height a bit on my driver side to even out of the light beam (easy to reach screw on the back of the headlight).

Love the start up/unlock sequence. Brightness at night is significantly improved from stock for rural driving. Time will tell how reliable they are in the long run.

Same here just had to nip a bit off the bottom.

Got the quote back on a Buffalo Bills blue wrap, and as much and I want it, couldn't justify it. Especially when I went SR5 to save money vs a higher trim, a $4K wrap could've got me in a higher trim
So I decided some Bills blue accents. Did the front emblem (Old Lady hated it, but I'd rather hear opinions here) and am going to do the front and rear tow hooks as well.

Do you mind telling me where you got the white top grill lights, please? Thanks!

It's the double-side tape stick-on style, and should work with all grille. It's slim & bright.
