    If they are little sugar ants what I have found that works the best is to use the little white Raid ant traps and mix the solid bait with some Terro liquid bait (cut the top off, squirt a bunch in and mix with a toothpick). They seem to like the taste of the Terro but the Raid kills them better. Usually kill a colony in under 36 hours.

    I’m trying to stay strong and keep my mods for the tundra reasonable. All unreasonable mods go into the tacoma. :D

    Below is the link to mine. I love it!

    Pour in the exact amount needed in the container and just dump into engine. Quick double check of oil level gauge and keep moving.

    Did end up making my own zip tie holder for nossle end as it would collect oil at end of hose as oil setting.

    Those are where they should have originally been installed by the manufacturer… Such a convenient location. I wish I had the cut on my platinum I would have relocated mine by now.

    As with many of my Platinum parts, I purchased the "cheaper" non-platinum version. This piece included.

    What did you use to drill your holes? Does it come with a layout? I don’t see any directions with mine

    We printed directions from the site. It tells you were to line it up, and gives dimensions for a second confirmation (holes should be xx down from edge).

    We used a paint pen to mark the holes, center punch to get the direct middle, new titanium step bit, wd40 for drill lube and a corded drill.

    It went smoothly.

    Yessir it was. No issues at all with it beyond the positioning of it in-dash. The screen size wasn’t my problem necessarily as much as the tilt/angle of the screen with it being set back in the dash (seemed to pull more glare reflecting from the black trim on the bottom). Was a little tough to see sometimes, but otherwise it was perfect!

    Gotcha. I was looking at the 4500 but it has issues with failing internal SD cards that stores the firmware and there has never been a firmware update from Pioneer. Some left bad reviews on the 4660 that you had. It's giving me a headache. It's either then 4660 or the 7600 floating 9 inch.

    That’s a nice looking rig. Did you swap out your button head bolts on your fender flares. I bought black stainless ones to change out with the ome stainless ones that came with mine. The new ones I’ve got look like the color of yours. I like the way yours look.

    Those are the same ones I got. I’m going to put mine on in a couple of weeks. Going to put some strips of ppf under the flare gaskets while I’m doing it. Those look so much better that the ones that come with them.

    First off, I know. Seen all the TW stuff over the years. Bought a few things like the front Tacoma grab handle and bowl lights years ago before the shit show.

    I've had them in my Tacoma for over two years and really like them. Thought about doing my own, even have all the leds and 5mm holders from other projects (since you have to buy a dozen-ish at a time) but they protrude out and wouldn't be a flush type finish and my (and any ones) fingers would catch on them going the DIY route since the stock bowl covers don't have a top surface to mount. Or they would face out making it a bit distracting driving at night.

    Door Bowl Lighting - 3rd Gen Tundra - KTJO 4x4 they are 2.5 gen even though it says 3rd. You can tell by the bowl shape

    Not trying to promote, but I'm a sucker for lights. Maybe someone else will enjoy

    anyways :crapstorm:

    I don't know how my friend did it, but, most of it has to do with +25mm offset wheels, aftermarket bumper, and BMC + little bit of hammering I believe. He still rubs at full locks but apparently its drivable enough. just waiting for his kings to be rebuilt.
