I recently installed a SwitchPros 9100 8-switch keypad in my 2025 TRD Off-Road Premium Hybrid. I'd been waiting for the custom mounting bracket from Westcott Designs to be released so I could integrate the keypad into the dash with a truly OEM+ appearance. The keypad sits above the other...

I recently discovered a cable loop in the engine compartment which is wrapped in white tape with a tag that suggests it should be cut in the event of a battery fire. The wire is located on the driver side toward the back, just above where the grommet goes through the firewall. I haven't...

We attended the PNW Overland Expo in Redmond, OR this past weekend, and then continued on to the Steens to find cooler weather and do some hiking at 8,000-9,700' elevation. We drove about 20 miles of well-maintained dirt roads, followed by about 2 miles of Class II/III rocky and rutted out side...

I've got the TRD Off-Road Premium, and there's a blank insert just beneath the main headlight assembly. It's physically separate from the headlight (you can wiggle it independently) and it seems like it's just a plastic insert/placeholder for some other feature or option that's not installed...

These are OEM tail lights that came standard on the 2025 TRD Off-Road Premium. I upgraded to the premium ones, so I no longer need these ones. These were removed 2 days after taking delivery and are in "like new" condition. I will ship them in the Toyota packaging that my premium tail...

I've got the TRD ORP iForce Max hybrid, which offers 2400W AC power outlets in both the second row center console and in the rear cargo area. This was a really appealing/important feature for me, as I want a way to charge my devices and power my portable electric refrigerator. I'm finding...

I was asked over on this thread to explain how I wired up the lighting on my Sherpa Capitol rack. My lighting setup includes a RIGID SR-Series 40" Midnight Optics light bar, four Baja Designs LED Dome scene lights, and power for my rooftop tent (with the option to wire for a solar panel in the...

I installed a 12v power access panel in the cargo area of my TRD Off-Road Premium iForce MAX hybrid this morning. It's the Blue Sea Systems 4366 Water-resistant Accessory Panel which includes a toggle switch (to disable the power ports and prevent any phantom draw on the battery), a standard...

I just installed the ARB Twin Air Compressor in the engine bay of my TRD Off- Road Premium iForce MAX Hybrid, including the ARB Manifold Kit and ARB Universal Hose Coupler. In order to make everything fit, I used this compressor mounting bracket from Bullet Proof Fabricating, which allows you...

The recent review of the 4Runner by Car Care Nut Mechanic mentioned that certain hybrid 4Runners (specifically, those with the pre-wired AUX port switches) include a traditional alternator that can serve as a backup in the event the hybrid motor can't charge the battery, and the vehicle...

Here's a closer look at the Sherpa Capitol Rack on my TRD ORP iForce MAX. I debated between the Capitol and the Westcott Lo Pro but ended up going with the Sherpa, and I'm glad I did. It doesn't have that much of a higher profile, but has enough clearance to allow for easy installs of the RTT...

Hi - I have a question that I'm hoping one of the TRD Sport owners in the group can answer. I understand your trim comes with a credit card sized key fob like this one: Can you tell me what the FCC ID and Model information is (printed on the back of the card)? It'd be something like this...

I thought this was interesting and worth sharing. I recently traded in my 2017 4Runner TRD Off-Road Premium for the 2025 TRD Off-Road Premium iForce Max Hybrid. The following is a side-by-side comparison of the insurance cost as quoted by Traveler's Insurance. Note that I have two teenage...

Here's a look at how I'm planning to configure my roof rack: 1. Sherpa Capitol platform roof rack with ½ height wind fairing 2. Free Spirit Recreation Aspen V2 roof top tent 3. Rigid E-Series Midnight Optics 40" LED light bar 4. Baja Design LED Scene Lights with Switch 5. Scene lights...

Here's a picture of the cargo area at night with the optional D-Pillar lights. You can see how they provide a much wider beam spread, and illuminate from a higher vantage point, so they make a big difference. I'd estimate the bulbs are about 3 times as bright as the basic cargo area lights.

I find it annoying that every time I start my 4Runner, the infotainment screen hits me with a reminder to "Experience Drive Connect." Even when I leave it on Apple Carplay when I turn it off, it aways flashes to this screen when I start back up... I don't currently have any Toyota Connected...

I can't figure this out for the life of me. How do you disable the feature that moves the driver seat all the way back when you turn off the engine? I like the concept, but it's not great if you've got an adult passenger in the back seat. I've looked around, and YouTube thinks it should be...

One of the reasons I opted for the iForce Max was the improved potential to power 12v DC and 120AC devices while camping off the grid for days at a time. I'm working with a shop in Portland that is going to help me implement a wiring and power management system that feeds off the 12v battery...

Here are some photos of my new TRD Off-Road Premium. I picked it up on Monday from Columbia Gorge Toyota in The Dalles, OR with the Tow Tech Package, Moonroof, Rear Cargo Lamp, All-Weather Floor Liners, and Mud Flaps. I've driven it 50 miles so far, so I'm still just getting use to the...

Columbia Gorge Toyota in The Dalles, Oregon just got an allocation for one that's arriving in April. https://www.toyota.com/search-inventory/model/4runnerhybrid/?vin=JTEVB5BRXS112BE92 If you're interested, contact Izzy Romero. He's been helping me with my TRD ORP order and has been great to...
