What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Did you order locally?

 

What did you use?

 

He used Meso trim pieces

 

Looks like some matte clear got used too.

 

hahaha thanks. They're worth every penny I've spent on them for versatile organization. I've got deals on a lot of them, though it's harder to find now. That'll be a nice setup to do.

 

Love it! I'm a 5 spoke guy and these fit the bill!

 

Haha, yea that drivers side is a massive pain. I have the RCI sliders and wasn’t even able to get that last bolt on back there. How did you end up getting it? Move the tank at all? My buddy suggested using a crows foot to get in there, but I haven’t tried yet.

 

I'm pretty sure all sliders are a pain on that driver's side. Passenger tricks ya thinking it's easy and can be done by self. Then you get over to the driver side. I'd always recommend to start on Passenger before the driver. Another recommendation do it with very little gas in the tank and with a friend if possible. It definitely is easier without the weight of fuel moving the tank over once you get slack in the strap, it also is definitely easier if you have a friend that can crawl under with ya, one poke and pry, the other with the nut and bolts. Not saying it can't be done alone but it definitely makes it a ton easier if someone can get you the space needed under there while the other turns the wrench. Good luck guys.

 

Meso and some matte clear spray paint.

 

Where did you pick up the spotter mirrors? Are they stick on or do they replace the actual mirror?

 

Yep, they replace the mirrors. Check out post #78112 on this thread.

 

I installed a hot air intake on my truck. Love the sound I get. Just drove a couple hundred miles and made sure everything was still tightened up good.

 

Currently at HD if you spend $300 on a set they take off $90, so only buy just over $300, then do it all over again, if you buy like $600 they only take off $90 still, so trick is to buy a few at a time. If you have the HD CC they send offers all the time for 0% interest for 18 to 24 months for purchases of $300 or greater etc.

 

Nothing like wasting money and decreasing efficiency.

 

Heck yeah! ‘Merica

 

I installed my TRD Pro LED head lights with the @iHacker harness. Looking forward to seeing how well they work.

 

46F and sunny! Time for a bath before a wax.

 

I have long skinny finger that finally were put to use hahahahahahah

 

Replaced bulbs out of necessity. OEM Pro headlights will happen next year at some point. Dumbest design ever just to change bulbs but it should go faster next time.

 

Drove in the snow

 

Funny, I did too. I think you win though. haha

 

Couple easy jobs
1. Had put bed rails on. Today added six tie downs. My thinking is to semi-secure the big cleats that came with rails by placing them between tiedowns each end. At least the tiedowns need a tool to remove, maybe keep the cleats from walking away in a parking lot. To be honest, I wouldn't miss the cleats, big and clunky, might just replace with 4 more tiedowns

2. Saw idea in a thread on here, little light above mirror folding switch. The one I found has two lights, I planned to put second in console. Planned to cut lights from plug and wire them under dash. But when received, discovered that plug also has a light (with switch). So decided to use that light in console socket, put second small light in glovebox. Made project easy - ran wires over lip, down through shift area, up into dash, out to each side. A nice 8 buck improvement.

Yeah I saw that deal. I just couldn’t justify buying that many boxes. I did end up buying the 3/8 12 volt ratchet because they forgot to change the price tag on one of those buy a tool get free battery deals. So basically they mark up the price on a tool and say it’s on sale with a free battery. They just forgot to change the price on the ones on another shelf. The Milwaukee rep happen to be assisting me at Home Depot. He was showing me this special sale when I asked him why was the same tool cheaper on the other rack. Lol. He had to walk up to the register an get them
to charge me a lower price and I still got the free battery. It pays to look around sometimes. If I worked in any kind of trade type job I’d definitely buy all in on that pack out system. I have a lot of tools but it’s all for personal use around my shop.

 

I'm kinda going all in on them right now for the reason of I need portable boxes for when I go to the rifle club with all my stuff, scopes, tools, mags, ammo etc etc etc.... but also with all the electrical stuff I play with between cars and jet ski and home I need some smaller containers to organize everything but I saw they come with a roller so i'm thinking rolling tall organizer at home and take the parts I need when I go do stuff, we all find what works for us, and my garage is a full on workshop at this point so being able to roll everything around is a HUGE must, i'm kinda ridiculous when it comes to DIY at this point, newest thing i'm learning is Cerakote at home .... i'm hopeless but I accept it

 

This arrived today. Such a high quality piece.

 

^^^what is it?^^^
