    Yes.

    The cluster was advertised as a 2012-2013 model, my truck is a 2010. I had read that some people had issues with everything working, but mine seems to work fine.

    It is bright at night, like Wynnded said lol

    Mine is a 2008 Sequoia cluster in a 2011 Tundra, fwiw. Everything works/worked fine, although I had a red power steering booster assist-like thingy light that stayed on all the time. I later learned that the Sequoias have some extra steering assist widget that that Tundras don't. I disassembled the cluster and unsoldered the LED from the board. If anyone is interested in doing this, I would also suggest that you stick to a Tundra cluster versus a Sequoia cluster unless you know exactly which Sequoia cluster you're getting so as to avoid unintentionally getting one that has the rear air suspension indicators in the cluster, unless of course that wouldn't bother you. I have no idea if installing one would result in a situation where you may potentially wind up having some random LED on all the time like I did with the steering LED that I had. Again, unless of course that wouldn't bother you. I don't know if it would be possible to disable those, like the one I did. YMMV

    Ha, thanks! I'll be damned. I'm not even drinking yet! Wonder if that's a thing, seems like it could be done.

    @SilverSkySurfer what color plastidip did you use for the grille? How close is the match.

    I would say about an 85% match. I took the grille off the truck, wiped it clean and used a couple cans of matte clear plasti dip. Didn’t do any sanding. Not quite as glossy or metallic-y as the body paint, but better than I expected for sure. From 5 feet away and more it looks perfect IMO.

    Thank you for the info on the BeStop electric running boards, FAR CHEAPER then the AMP, by half the price. Will be looking into those ASAP. I just pulled the trigger on Toyo Open Country tires 285X55 R20’s Open country AT3’s, and getting my Dirty Deeds exhaust and rear sway bar installed next week. Putting in my Interior LED lights as well. Next Mod, new head lights and maybe tail lights, any thoughts? BTW, all the mods posted by you guys are truly awesome, however, I need a third job to keep up, lol.

    The Sequoia headlight conversion is hands down the best looking headlight upgrade. Add the matching pro grill and damn they look good! That said I went with the Morimoto XB headlights and fog lights on my 2013. They are the 2nd best option in my opinion. I was having a hard time finding the sequoia components used and the Morimotos popped up on sale for less than half of the cost of just the Sequoia lights were new so yeah....

    Alpharex looks good as well and is the cheapest option. I saw them in person and to me they look more aftermarket with their DRL bar where the Morimoto looks more like it could be OEM.

    Long over due wash. The other day I put the window rain visors on. Love the look and mostly the functionality with all the Seattle rain.
