    @Mr.bee , if I can get a few minutes of truck mod time I have a HS headlight relay to install and replace my adequate but not as sexy relay harness in my Tundra. I can send you the old one. I could use the pressure, have a brand new headlight to swap out the brand new headlight with moisture as well.

    Also I really hope to make it to T2S next year. The timing wasn’t good at all this year. And my trick isn’t nearly ready for camping yet. Mechanically it’s fine but I’d like to get a bunch of the basics installed as well as the dual battery kit, Switch-Pros, winch and compressor, then all the lighting and some cosmetics.

    short term, focused on window trim, mirror heat harness and door latch installs so I can do sound deadening and put the door panels back on. Door latches are really annoying right now.

    I’m sure I would have posted the slowest time. Definitely the slowest time of a truck with as much work done.

    I'd de-pin it and pop on a fresh connector, but that's just me.

    Attempted to make an order with speedy bleed for their brake bleeder kit and the web page hung indefinitely after I entered my credit card info. Now calling to confirm if the order went through. They must be at lunch since I need to wait for the return call.

    After some help from a couple members here to verify the adapter fits an 02 and watching a video of someone pumping the motive bleeder kit like 50 times to get to 15 psi, I was able to make up my mind easily.

    I just got it and someone from BC in Canada just tried to call me but I couldn’t hear them. Must be a 1-10 person business I’m guessing. At least the address and charge was correct.

    what did i do wrong? Took out the little plastic phillips head clip thing, tried to pull gently, then remembered reading you've gotta smack it forward, and smacked the lens off.

    In my book you did nothing wrong because I did same thing a few yrs back. I chalked it up as it was time for replacement and Cool Springs @Roman fixed me right up :cool:

    Morimoto RetroRubber. Re-seal and done. And now you've got glue for future headlight hacking endeavors. I guarantee you it won't come apart again after you RetroRubber it.

    I got most of Sedona off my engine today. Part of my frame still looks like a chocolate cake though.

    IMG_20230503_104858058.jpg

    Shout out to @shifty` who recommended this product. I spent less than 20 minutes on this. Disconnected the battery, sprayed certain parts down and gently rinsed it off.

    We're getting SoCal-like weather so I needed any excuse to be outside.

    That stuff is pretty awesome, it's like it suspends the dirt so you can rinse it away. Griot's just makes generally really good products.

    But you missed your washer filler cap. :boink:

    I wonder if the Griot's would also work on the frame similarly? Did you try it?

    I just looked in '03 FSM for 'light resistor' and it definitely is a thing in there...

    NOPE. it's on the fender below the brake MC.

    That looks straight up like theft to me for both of the turn sockets to be GONE like that at the wiring harness connector
