What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

How many lights do you have??

 

40" Rigid Radiance light in the grille need two switches. One for blue back light &a one for spot light.
42" single row Hood Insert light.
40" bumper light
50" Rigid Radiance light needs two switches. One for the red back light tied to my brake lights and separate switch for the spot lights.
1x pair of Rigid dually flood lights for my back up lighting. Installed in the rear bumper. I can't see much without them at night since my tint is so dark.

 

Our bumper is one of the lighter ones for the Tundra, but designed to be strong as well. It comes in about 135lbs. Add about 80 for a winch. The 650's would probably work fine, 700's might be peace of mind but I'd want all this stuff waiting to go on the truck at the same time as it'll be real rough with 700s and stock up front

 

Added quad fire led to fog lights in grille

 

Plasti Dipped 2 of 3 badges. I like the engine badge as is because front bumper still has chrome. Didn't clean up as easy as the video, and being a perfectionist, didn't quite like how they came out. Looks good from far, but not up close. Will redo again one of these days.

 

Make sure you keep the cans warm i.e. In a bowl of warm water and do several layers to peel easier

 

Thanks! I kept in the sun to keep can warm. I think thickness of the layers may have been the issue as you say. Always a lesson learned LOL.

 

What is that? Wax residue?

 

Got it

 

you just plug into the usb port under the console?

 

Yup.that's what I did

 

7 coats here

 

whats the part number on the puddle lights?

 

Here's where I got them from: http://drivebright.com/home/shop/led-puddle-light-pack-bright-trax-v4-extreme-toyota-mazda/
And here's the DIY: https://www.tundras.com/threads/led-puddle-lights-for-platinum-1794-diy.7496/#post-110186

 

washed the tundra and the wifes highlander the old 2 for 1 special

 

i think it was more like "Honey since your already washing your truck do the highlander too, oh and vacuum it too"

 

lol @cd121082 after washing my truck I looked over at the highlander and felt bad so I decided to give it wash too

 

added something small platinum badge on center console

 

Probably not, but it is easy to tell. Just look up at the bottom of the mirrors and if there is round lamp, you got 'em. If not, then nope.

 

Just joking with you. My LED migration started with using my OEM bed LEDs one night. I noticed how yellow the cargo lights are compared to the LED bed lights. Replaced cargo lights, then backup lights, then dome, then vanity and finally footwell and now the puddle lights. Kind of a perpetual need to change from yellow to white and bright. I didn't realize how dull the inside was with window tint until I changed them. And I went with the long life 5000 instead of the 'high output' that VLEDS has. I wasn't originally going to change them all, but then this forum (and yellow) happened! Its all good...

 

before when we had the 4runner and highlander it wasnt so bad for me. but since we got the sienna (aka kid wagon) and the tundra it takes to long to do both. and to top it off cleaning the inside of the sienna sucks cause of the kids. Sometimes i just ask the dealer to wash it for me if they have time when im in the area....lol. i know its not the same but its better than nothing.

 

Where did you pick that up at? Did you just stick it on over the SR5?

 

its funny the SR5 badge actually clips in that spot very easy to remove just get a fingernail under it right in the middle it pops right out but the center console is made for SR5 when you get the platinum or 1794 badges they are just adhesive kinda like the exterior badges just adhesive no clips so I just removed the SR5 and stuck the platinum badge in its place @TTU19

 

Nice, did you get them direct from Toyota?

 

yes I just go this badge not all of them

 

Pictures to come soon, but....
I got 18 percent tint on the front windows and a sun strip for the front windshield
Weather tech Rain guards
and installed my bakflip B2.
I also got my TRD Logo seatbelt clips

 

I installed a 40" Blue Rigid Radiance today in my TRD Pro Grille.

I got all my switches installed yesterday for all the lights.

 

Just paid for my wheels and tires combo .... approximately 2 weeks before I have them on hand .

Also scheduled on Wednesday to have my Toytec TU3 kit installed.
