    Eventually. These tires have been sitting since 2016 when I tore my Tacoma apart may was well get my money out of them.
    I’ll probably be going with the scs wheels or trd SEMA wheels on this truck though. These wheels are for the taco ultimately

    Changed my ignition ring to red, took the condoms off the 194 size climate bulbs, and changed the smaller bulbs out for red. Not sure I like the climate colors so much, but I really like the ignition ring. I'm thinking maybe just green LEDs on the climate stuff.

    What size are the tiny bulbs that look like this I’ve converted my entire truck to led besides them and it really bothers me.

    That seems right but I think they have to be twist locks the bottom of t4 and t5 bulbs are different.

    [​IMG] Did some sound deadening the inner door skin on the driver door. Went heavy because my buddy got me a small crate of some OEM dynamat. Outer door skin I’m going to try and make removable panels held in with bolts and riv nuts. Also, still need to find need door panels/

    If my memory is right those are a #74, you can pull the bulb out of the base.

    Partshams. My Autozoned guy recco’d these due to the store not having availability. He knows his stuff. So far so good.

    Looks good! Cool thing is if you change your mind you can change the bulbs color. I used white LL incandescent bulbs on my climate if you need a reference point.

    Also, its amazing how bright and green are your stereo lights. I took off the stereo facing and colored the diodes with black Sharpie and they are about half brightness now. Just right for me as that stereo lighting as always brighter than everything else and turning the dimmer dial down would help, but it also overly dimmed the other necessary lights.

    I haven't needed to do much of anything to my 2002... new radiator about a year ago, new wiper blades and more recently a new Leer cap courtesy of Leer. I have plans to do something about the failed clear coat, and pitting on the very front of the hood. I expect the exterior door handles will crack & break sooner than later, and there is a small piece of rubber seal where the windshield meets the cowl that needs attention. But right now, I just drive it.

    I used green LED's from Amazon and I really like them, I was worried they'd be too bright or have the funky fluorescent look, but they have roughly the same color as stock, just brighter.

    I'm kind of surprised with all the awesome fab work you've done that you still have the stock stereo in :) I have an extra double din kenwood stereo I'll give you. Also going to be at my mom's house in Salt Lake after Christmas so I'll even deliver it for free if I get to drool over your truck for 5 minutes.

    It's this one

    Maybe I’m just getting old and have bad night vision but I’m blown away that any of you guys do white dash/hvac lights. I’d be blinded. I ended up going green just cause my stereo matches as well.

    There are 3 where I circled. The gray plugs unscrew and then the bulb is connected to that.

    That is tempting, and I do appreciate the offer, but I'm just waiting for a good time to do a new head unit with a monitor and XM. If you find yourself in the area and want to see my truck, we could work something out. I've been pretty busy lately, but I probably have time at some point. Are you from Utah originally?
