    Greetings from the Lonestar state. Bought my 1st Toyota a month ago. Used 2015 1794 edition. I love it but driving myself crazy on what mods to do 1st. Already put a center console organizer in. Was a must need. Anyone have ideas. This forum seams to have numerous ones.

    Thanks for the welcome. Your right there are a lot of mods out there. My biggest gripe about the truck is I have the factory DLR which are a truer white then the headlights and the fog lights. Any ideas on how to get everything to match.

    Congrats on the new truck and welcome to the forum.

    You can spend a lot of time researching mods.

    My first few were an undercover Swingcase and a BakFlip VP tonneau. It's all about your priorities.

    I checked out your retrofit. Awesome but a little above my skill set. I was hoping to find a standard bulb that produces a truer white. I figured that would be the easiest and cheapest.

    New windshield wipers....just getting started
    After letting my wallet cool off after the purchase....I started looking at pictures. There are some GREAT folks on this site and they post lots of pictures.

    I'd put mods into two brackets....Needs & Fun.
    Needed a step-bar (very short wife), so purchased
    Fun better speakers, wait
    Need cover, wait a bit...

    And so forth. That helped me with the mods. Really would like the '18 headlights, but the budget couldn't handle it and not really a need. You'll find lots of great suggestions here...so welcome!
