They look nice and bright but those need to be aimed down a fair bit. Fog lights should sit below your headlamp beam, and illuminate the road directly in front of the vehicle. Best way to aim is park 25' away from a wall, measure the distance from the ground to the middle of the lamp, mark that...

Ah I did not see that during my first read through. I have found even with a lot of tweaking the factory sub seems to be very lacking as a lot of bass seems to come from the door speakers(changing balance to rear seems to kill almost all the bass completely). I am looking at options for making...

Why did you opt for the Encore X when they make a plug and play amp that works with the JBL system? Was it a preference thing or did it provide more control?

Didn't they have something at Sema? I am pretty sure they have headlamps and tail lamps currently in development but I could be mistaken.

Yea I was pretty confident the 4Runner trims would be plug and play without issue because the Tacoma is like that. Its why I am fairly confident the 4Runner lights will work in the Tacoma. Its all the same connections, and as seen from aftermarket options like AlphaRex, they are the exact same...

No the base headlamps say 4Runner on them but they do not illuminate. Limited trim and Platinum illuminate 4Runner, the TRD Pro illuminates the word TRD on one and Pro on the other, and the Trailhunter illuminates the logo.

I work for Toyota. I have access to the parts lookup

So quick update... While I haven't taken delivery of my 4Runner, I did do a lot more research and looking at wiring connectors and everything else, these are plug and play and will work as long as the vehicle has the levelling motors. Even if you have the base headlamps with the halogen turn...

They are almost all plug and play from what I can see. Looking at the parts diagrams for the connectors for the headlamps they all use the same connectors on the back except base models if they do not have the levelling motor. But the other 2 connectors are still the same so they should still...

I still have not taken delivery of my 4Runner. ETA seems to be unavailable at the moment so the best the dealer can estimate is sometime early next year. Probably just going to do a 1-2 year lease on a Tacoma and then get a 4Runner once they are more readily available because I need something...

At this point any orders placed now will likely end up being for a 2026 model year unless the dealer still has an allocation left for a 2025. With the wait times and how late in the year it is, I don't see there being many 2025s left for new orders. I placed an order for an Off Road Premium at...

Huh weird, at my dealer we do the work and submit the claim after the work is performed. We then retain the parts until told to dispose of them in case they want to inspect them. We just did our first TSB on a 4Runner yesterday(ordered the parts the day before) so the TSB had not been updated...

For people getting the noise back after having already had the TSB performed, I am wondering if they are going update the TSB and do what they did on the Tundra, which is also replace the rotors. The pads and hardware are all the same from that Tundra TSB just without the rotors.

I really don't get why your dealer is giving you such a hard time over this. It is warranty, they should just replace them and be done with it. At my dealership, customer complains about an issue, we see a corresponding TSB, we test drive it to replicate the issue, then we do the job. As simple...

Currently: Parts Advisor at a Toyota dealer. Previously I have worked as a Mechanic, Service Advisor, and a Tire Builder(used machines to make tires).

It should. The only thing you are replacing is the actual signal portion of the mirror itself. The heating element is part of the wiring that runs to the actual mirror.

It is a wax based undercoating. Works just as good as an oil based undercoating, but with less mess(no drips), and it is resistant to washing off, so it tends to last longer. This is something I am 100% doing when I get mine.

Easily bought? Yes. Cheap? No. Retail, these run around $1700 CAD each. So to do just the front 2 you would be around $4000 CAD after taxes. Only reason I am doing it is because I work at the dealer and get discounts which makes this a lot more affordable.

I am replacing the door panels with the ones off a higher trim(Either Platinum or TRD Pro) so instead of all hard plastic, they have the soft arm rest portion. I am getting the dash trim out of a Platinum instead of the Greyish/Silver trim it has. I am also going to be testing to see if the...

Looks great!
