2013 Sequoia Limited to TRD FAUX build now with BOOST!

I got my front and rear overlay from Toyota, or do you mean an actual replacement emblem and not overlay? You have to buy the whole kit from Toyota though.

 

Yup I had to buy the whole kit although I don't need the front because PRO grille.

I wish they made a black logo. I know it's quality tape but it can fall off.

 

Coulda plasti dipped them! ‍

 

I'm a man that knows his limitations. I cannot paint to save my life and my experience with plasti dip has been horrendous, I'd rather spend the 400+ and know it's fine.

 

This just in, I knew it was smaller but not this small. It is scary light, weighs about the same as the 6AH battery!

Compact battery designed for it on backorder, supposed to come between 1/15 and 2/30

 

Impact driver?

 

Yup, the big one is too big to get into many spaces & too heavy to hold up there. It's this one:

Found a two pack of the batteries for 183 including tax, vs 119 plus tax for one from the other site(s) on Amazon with delivery between the 31st & 4th.

 

Parts came, installed the belt molding. Have to take the inside cover off to do the big piece, That'll be a weekend project.





I guess part of the reason it's so expensive is it came with both license plate lights & bulbs. LEDS will go in instead of the included bulbs.



This clip broke under the right side trim panel, having difficulty finding that odd square clip.

 

It's done, started last night, just finished.

 

LEDS in.

 

Looks great! Are you planning on putting the letter overlays on it?

Assuming there’s no wiring for the plate with the window controls? Was 2018 the year they added that feature?

 

I'm not sure what year the window switch replaced the lock cylinder, I was stressed on the part number, it took me almost a week to come up with this one and I was worried until it came.

I don't use the key in the door(s) but do like having the option, just in case.

I'm on the fence using the overlays, I'm not a fan of chrome but this is all that is left and it looks good. I'm going to live with it like this for now and since I have the letters I'll use them if I change my mind.

Thanks!

 

The clips came, they are the right ones, whew.

 

TRD Shifter, much nicer than stock.

 

Nice, I have the black one. Much better feel to it than the stock telephone pole!

 

Tow mirrors came, I'll install in the morning.

 

Damn those are HUGE! Quick question, why didn't you choose these over the the easy on/off molded versions that snap over the existing mirrors?

 

There is weird damage on my passenger mirror housing that has been bugging me since I got the Sequoia. The correct oem mirror is over 400. I have bought two used mirrors on eBay that went back after r&ring due to defects which gets old.

I did not consider the slip ons because I needed to replace the passenger side and I don't want to have to protect them when they are floating around somewhere..

 

Passenger side in, liking it!

 

Driver side in, Still like it!

 

Here's the weird damage, I have no clue how this could have happened, it was before my ownership.

 

Thinking the black is too much black.


Rough Country tow hook shackle mounts came, silver ones go right through, one of the reds, not, there's a lip on the mounts.

 

Installed.

 

Which mounts were those for, a Tundra 07-21?? The ones on their site look offset.

 

It's these:

Letters are on. I like it.

 

Hell yeah, that looks mint!

Is this the link to that piece?


I see your rear wiper blade is missing that nesting piece. Was that something you modified so it works better? Mine doesn't seem to seat all the way after wiping and I'm looking at replacing the whole arm as well as the blade.

 

I got it here:

You don't need the gasket, it's already attached.
