We're installing the camera this weekend and have the Westcott ladder mounted on the left (no issues with the backup alarm and the ladder). We're also installing a rear tire swing-out, so moving the camera to just under the rear spoiler. I did extensive research on this all, so I'll come back...
Agree on swapping to 17" or even 18" would be helpful. We live in the country (lots of dirt and gravel roads), have lifted vehicles and prefer AT tires. My husband runs MT Baja Boss on his F250 and I have Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Maybe too aggressive for what you're wanting, but wanted to share...
I was keeping tabs on this because we just lifted ours (my husband installed the lift), then had the tires and wheels mounted. So glad to hear there was a positive, fairly easy resolution. I was initially wondering if they maybe did not reuse the same sensors. Good call adding your...
How do you apply this and/or clean your tires? A brush or tool? I'm obsessive about mine and wheels/tires/lift go on this week so I came on looking specifically for this advice. Thank you!
My husband is a heavy equipment mechanic and has to work with wiring and things all the time (though not as delicate as my personal vehicle!), so it's all him. But I have this saved and will probably be back with some questions!
We're about to install a swing-out tire carrier, and I've been looking for a rear camera solution. This is super detailed and helpful if we go this route, thank you!
I'm reading it like OP wants an Icecap - that he has the opportunity to buy a Mudbath sight unseen and isn't sure he'll like it?
OP, if that's the case - Mudbath is a verrrrry desirable color. Seems like almost any dealer would be happy to hunt down an Icecap for you and swap them.
We picked ours up at the very end of July and can confirm it definitely wasn't an option. I'm actually eyeing an interior trim kit on Etsy that has this topo design, so I may have been interested...although on Heritage Blue I'm not sure how it would look.
Also looking for this grille and part number. We have an SR5 with the illuminated front badge, so the Heritage grille isn't an option - but still love the honeycomb look.
Stop and go is also one of the biggest mpg killers. At just shy of 2,000 miles, we get consistently 23.0 - that's mostly highway miles, as we live in the country and have a decent drive to kiddos' school and town. When I run errands in town, it always drops a few tenths of a gallon.
Love it! We have the exact same 4runner, and I've been curious how tan seat covers would look with the interior being almost entirely black. I think you sold me on it!
Just clarifying - does this mean after 10mins, the vehicle will shut off? I also haven't been able to find an answer as to whether or not it shuts off when you open the door to drive. (We don't have ours yet - any day!).
I'll BE in Denver on the 24th and 28th with some free time coming to/from Wyoming, but I'm flying...probably not a fit, but figured I'd throw it out there!
