What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

How are they turned on and off?

 

Ah gotcha. .40 sits toon tall

 

Lights are connected to the cargo light switch.

 

Lol

PMG

 

What was the sight you got then from?

Hmm. Luckily my .45 XDS fits!

 

Cool thanks. Does it light the bed up pretty good?

 

They do a good a good job, I changed out the upper cargo lights to LEDs also - mostly to have the same light color. The kit is the same kit dealers add onto trucks and charge $259 for.

 

If you dont mind, would you please measure how tall your tire is from the ground to the top of the tread?.... i have the 275/70 bfg ko2's and when i measure mine they are only 31.5" tall

 

Type in your tire size and select the tire it'll give you all specs

 

I guess I just don't get the whole not wearing a seatbelt thing. I lost 2 friends in the past 6 month just because they didn't buckle up. One was in a relatively minor collision around 45mph and was partially ejected, the two occupants of the other car walked away and refused transport to the hospital. All of her injuries were due to the partial ejection and return to vehicle. The other was ejected while rolling down the embankment and the truck rolled on top of him. Both would be here today if they had put their belt on.

anyone that says "well I only do it at slow speeds" has obviously never seen what an airbag deployment with out a restraint can do to someone.

I guess it takes seeing it first hand and working a patient that isn't going to make it because they couldn't be inconvenienced.

 

I wanted to say the buzzer shuts off when you wear it... But to each his own, I'm on the road all day (Fedex) so I just always wear it and have been in two head on collisions, both were around 30mph glad I had it when the airbag went off. I also live in the city so lots more obstacles and bad drivers to deal with.

 

I totally agree that over the road you should absolutely be wearing a searbelt. I too have lost friends and loved ones because of not wearing seatbelt. However some of us use vehicles for hunting/working or have dogs that ride up front with us. There's a time and place to wear belts and a time and place not to. That's why we bought these. For the times when seatbelt aren't necessary and don't want the annoying buzzing going off

 

Thank you sir!

 

Does anyone know if I can get this piece in black? It's the cupholder trim ring. If not, I'll just paint the bitch! Thanks.

 

I just got my fingernails up under it in two spots opposite each other. Not a ton of pressure, popped right up without breaking any clips. Yay me!!

 

My nails aren't long. I used my thumb nails cause they are the strongest. I guess you could wrap a small screwdriver tip with tape and accomplish the same thing. I came from the direction of inside the cup holder. One finger on each side and just popped it up.

 

Thanks Ron, I think I'll give it a shot.

 

Finally got some time and weather in my favor and dressed up the truck a little more. I'll be doing that chrome center cup tray piece soon as well, now that I've seen it removed. Will probably plasti dip it vs paint, so the rubberized will soften the cans and such when they rattle inside there.

For now though, here are some decals I had made from TacomaWorld member ruggedT.
I also swapped out the head lights to just white lights to make it look cleaner and it was a quick and cheap resolve for now until I probably go LED.
Lastly, I did some hood work. I find it softens sun glare and I like the continued look of my black on blue.

ps. Yes I'm a Warcraft nerd, if you already don't know.

 

Installed TRD rear sway bar.

 

Ok, thanks.
