Yeah, doesn't seem like an area you'd want to have constantly slimy, similar to putting armorall on the steering wheel, bad idea. I had forgotten the sales guys even mentioned it until I saw this post. Thanks for the recommendation against.

I've not done this yet, but when I picked up my 4runner the sales manager suggested regularly lubing all rubber door gaskets with Vaseline. Not that it would have prevented this. Just something that had not occurred to me on previous vehicles.

I just had mine done last week. They did 80% Ceramic (or the inverse 20% - the whole tint percentage thing makes no sense to me) on the drivers & passenger side front doors. It looks slightly different from the back, but not much (I've seen 70% and 75% in other posts), I associate it with the...

I've noticed the wind noise, even after disabling fake engine noise and white noise with Carista. Removing the roof cross bars helped with noise over 50MPH, but now I think I notice the door noise more (almost as if a window is down). Similar noise to my 5G 4Runner. I've read in 5G forums of...

Yeah, it will not affect their number, they could care less about extras. I took out all the aftermarket liners, inserts and covers before I traded my 5th Gen in. Most of it I gave away to other 5th Gen owners. The dealership got enough out of me already.

The 5th Gen is slightly shorter than the 6th Gen cover where it clips in behind the seats and will definitely not fit without a homemade fix. I did not try the fit with it extended out. Found a 6th Gen cover from an auction site, but the retract mechanism is broken (what do you want for less...

I purchased this one in Bronze and it definitely came with overlays for the front iforcemax logo: https://autoparts.toyota.com/products/product/bronze-badge-insert-kit-limited-pt90b8925305 Have not opened it yet to see if it has front & back (it's too cold here to attempt and I don't have the...

I like the illuminated emblem too much. However I'm not a fan of the bright chrome insert around it. Unfortunately the dark chrome version costs more than both the front and rear valances combined. Maybe a bronze paint or overlay to match the bronze letter overlays.

That's a good price, I got quoted 400-500 to do the same (they were going to take apart the bumpers to wrap them). I ended up just buying the parts in black from Toyota with their 25% off sale. Paid less than 400 total for both the front and back. Now I just need to figure out how to take the...

I just ordered these: PT948-89253-25 - TOYOTA PT90B-89253-05 - 4RUNNER & Limited (yours would be different for a SR5)

I have a Limited and did the 1k change and soon to do the 5k change myself. Super easy process compared to the 5G 4Runner. Did not have to raise it up at all, though it is a tight fit for me getting underneath and moving around (air dam and factory side steps). If the front air dam wasn't...

I have a Limited and have noticed the same thing with only high-end in the rear speakers. If there is any shift in the fader towards the rear (or even towards the front) the volume is significantly cut to the sub. If the fader is towards the front or the back, there is hardly anything coming...

I have noticed hard shifts occasionally when it is cold. That said it is not as bad as my 5G was, that thing did not like cold weather at all.

Lately I've been pretty happy with the "Custom" mode, primarily because it lets me spin the dial blindly fully clockwise after startup (and then smack the engine auto-stop button) without having to adjust back and forth to hit the correct setting. I've got a Limited non-hybrid, the Custom...

I installed the Redlines, no hood push or wobble, feels just as secure as before the install (they are nice that they fasten directly to the hood connection to the hinge). Got them from Amazon on sale for $80 (add them to a list and wait for a sale). Super quick and easy install.

Bought your nets for my '99 Wrangler and they have been great. Quality materials and fabrication. I do wish the friction clamps opened up a bit more to allow the material to pass through, but a needle nose pliers works just file. These have been great for keeping the dogs contained when the...

I did notice the threads match the Mobile-1 wide mouth bottle threads. So next change I'm thinking just cut the bottom out of a spent bottle and use it. But for the first change the standard oil funnel I had laying around worked just fine.

Wildpeaks on the Jeep are better than the KO2 were in the rain. Maybe a softer tire like a Nitto would be better, on a Jeep the KO2 are quite stiff. I've heard despite the aggressive look that Toyo MT ride very well. But the stock Toyo doesn't get much love here on the forum.

I had the defenders on my previous 4runner, actually 2 sets. Costco beat everyone's price. No experience with the dueler. My Jeep had BFG KO2's, great tire, easily 80k miles on each set, but were terrible in the rain (but the Jeep is pretty lightweight). Its currently running Wildpeak AT...

The ride on my limited has definitely improved the more miles I drive. Just over 3k now and I'm no longer feeling EVERY crack in the road. I'm wondering about the stock tires a bit, but not yet enough to go drop $1500 on a new set. I had Michelin on my previous 4-Runner with 20" rims and...
