That's correct. Personal preference, I don't run the backlight on clear, sunny days. Dawn, dusk, nighttime, or inclement weather is when I typically have the backlight on. I think tying into DRL is tricky since the DRL function is just the headlights on low power. I don't believe there is a...
Had the pleasure to be a featured vehicle in the annual @Diode Dynamics car show and open house this past weekend. Took my 6th gen around the rally course a few times and had a blast!
@ryno was posted up front and center at the show entrance to show off his build as well. If you're near the...
That should be the miles left on your suggested service interval. There is a little wrench that should show up next to that number when it pops up, and then the actual ODO reading shows and the wrench icon goes away. That's a very odd number to be showing, though. The default should start at 10k...
Odd question, and this is somewhat related to wind noise issues - are my crossbars installed backwards? I only noticed a couple days ago during a wash that the lipped end is facing the front and the rounded end is facing the rear. Both are oriented this way. It seems like that would be...
No hood Struts. I do know Diode Dynamics is working on their updated brackets, and the lights mount "forward" over the hood, rather than over the cowl like the CBI. I will probably switch to those when they come out because I prefer that mounting orientation.
I've noticed a terrible smell the next day after driving in rain or after a car wash. It smells as though the carpet has gotten wet and developed a wet mildewy smell. It's not the A/C, because after a few dry days the smell does not appear. I've felt all around different areas on the carpet and...
Just had a dumb realization. The spacers for the Tacoma are the correct specs, considering the hubs are the same. And yes, I neglected to check the sticky. Didn't occur to me to do so.
Can anyone confirm fitment of the KSP 1.5" hubcentric wheels spacers? Their website currently does not show them as fitting, but unsure if that's just due to them not having a confirmed fitment test done.
It's a bit of an optical illusion. I have a dash cam, so it will not sit flush against the glass. In the comparison photos where I have the two shades stacked, the Coverking is only about an inch taller. That's tall enough that it makes contact with the headliner before making it to the...
I ordered the same shade from Amazon as @6G4RWCPTRDSP (https://a.co/d/fYHELeK)
I originally ordered a cover from Coverking, which does feel more premium than the AutoMate cover, but it was a smidge too large in my experience. It fits, but it's very, very tight. I have to push my headliner out...
The only thing I've noticed is that there seems to be some sort of system check the vehicle runs within maybe 30 minutes of turning off the engine (haven't done a deep dive to actually research yet) that applies power to the ign circuit. There's been two instances where I've walked out into my...
FYI - any company that says the Tacoma brackets will fit the 4Runner is incorrect. My first order of brackets came form Cali Raised. They're selling them as interchangeable. I initially wanted to order from Diode Dynamics, but they said the brackets are not interchangeable (or at least theirs...
