What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Today I gave her a bath, fog lights on mod..also its 8:32 PM and Im just starting the bbq..

 

You washed your bbq?

 

Haha..no need..

 

Stubby antenna today...woohoo

 

Reporting back after a few days of driving: The Fox 2.0 ifps have made a noticeable improvement on and off road, but not drastic, I’m ordering the Deaver mini-pack to replace to the overload leaf, the jackhammer effect is still present on the fwy but not as bad as original shocks

 

Which antenna did you go with?

 

Where do people keep finding nude pictures of me?

 

A little late for this thread because I did it 2 days ago... but I used the Loncky leather steering wheel wrap and I’m so glad I did it. Feels like a totally different interior.

 

Katzkins, waiting for heater kit before fronts. Hands are sore lol, needed a break anyway. I can see why pro install costs so much, took me 4h just for the back seats.
Install is basically reversal of removal including where hog ties were, didn't need to read any instructions except vid below. I also kept the cloth on the headrests, the foam is glued to the cloth, I think it's the only areas that you don't remove upholstery because the leather seemed loose the first one I did without cloth.

Tools I used
- bought hog ties/pliers from Amazon (cheaper than the kit they sell) basically big staples that crimp into 10c size rings, if you don't use them, the seat seams will float
- needle nose pliers
- socket set (there's also a couple of areas with Torx screws)
- sharp scissors to cut holes for the headrests, it's tucked underneath the plastic frame, OEM clean
- plastic trim tools I already had to poke stuff through/under parts
- steamer for wrinkles

Watch some vids on technique, moulding the foam and pulling strategically.

Install let me completely clean the foam underneath too. Wow, it's comfortable back there! Family did the euphoria expression when seat testing.




Important vid for cup holder removal:

 

Thanks for the feedback I appreciate it. I think I wanna go with the 2.0 resi fox's for the rear. I didn't think the jackhammer effect will ever go away. What is ifps?

 

I want those too lol, ifp is just fox’s “internal floating piston” design. It just sounds cooler when you type that in rather than just fox 2.0’s lol. I’ll find out if it goes away... I don’t think any vehicle can ride smooth up the 10 into Santa Monica, but if I can get cozy on the 60 through riverside/San Bernardino I’ll be happy

 

Added a wireless charger.

Can’t even tell it’s there.
Wish I would of done this awhile ago.

 

Oh damn so you can charge your phone while it sits in the tray of your center console??

 

Ya buddy!!!

 

Oh shit just take my money

 

A lot of folks on here have done this mod, to include myself (Very happy with it btw). Just search for wireless charger. A lot of good write-ups and how to’s available.

 

Yup it’s where I found out about it. Very easy once you remove the 30 screws for the cover under the Center counsel LOL

 

Installed Leather Steering wheel from 2016 Tacoma.

 

I've been curious about this. Does it stay connected wirelessly with a case on the phone with this setup?

What phone/case/charger do you have?

 

Just got front camera installed. So far so good. Like the Toyota button.

 

This is on my list.

 

Keep your eye on ebay. Got mine for $135 shipped.

 

That's not bad at all. Pretty easy to swap? I've watched videos of it, looks simple enough.

 

About 20 minutes. Didn't even need a steering wheel puller. Was able to just wiggle it loose.

 

Installed light bar in bumper and painted tow hooks.

 

How long did that take?

 

It stays connect but I don’t use a case. I put my wife’s phone on it with an otter box and it would not charge.

 

I was afraid of that. I have an s9+ with a thin spigen case that doesnt always connect to the wireless charger on my night stand.

Thanks.

 

A grand total of 3 hours from unboxing to locking my truck for the night.

 

I just ordered this one. My buddy said it works better. I can let you know after I swap it out on Monday.
