    H16 in the fogs is
    H16 in the fogs is correct.they are a very similar shape to h11 but much lower wattage. I think 19w vs 55w. You run the risk of burning the lens, housing, and most of all the wiring if you put in an h11 bulb

    Great fit and high quality.

    Ronin.50 Cal Antenna. Awesome. Also because my Tundra is nicknamed “Bullet” named after my first horse as a kid I named “Bullet”. Love the legacy. And the antenna commemorates it

    You're not going to burn up any wiring running led fog H11 bulbs. They use less power

    Man it’s a big difference. I will have to move around the rear a little to make more light come out the switch but the driver side is in point.

    Oil change today, rotated tires, vacuum and detail interior. While changing oil noticed the battery terminals especially the positive had an insane amount of corrosion. I've never had a vehicle corrode up like that, Took the terminals off wire brushed and put back on. Start the truck it starts then dies immediately, then fires right back up. Head to home depot and ABS, TRAC, flashing brake light, rpm gauge dropping to zero while driving, mph all jumpy. Got back home completely took off the positive terminal put it in the vise and wired brushed it more, reinstall and everything back to normal now. These trucks do some weird things when the battery is disconnected or not 100% connection. Only thing I can think is when I first cleaned them up I must of dislodged something that reduced connectivity.

    Any of you guys upgrade your terminals to something else/better?

    Those dash speakers are from him. He makes those adapters in house and mounts the tweeters, really cool idea and he says they sound great. I hope to try to start a group buy for these kits in a month or 2, even if it's just the adapter plates. The subwoofer/box group buy went really well so hopefully he will do another one for us

    I've always wondered this, its the same in my Tacoma. Only two things come to mind, its a cost cutting thing and its a reliability ratings thing. If there is no bulb to ever go bad in there then they never have a ding on the reliability aspect of it.

    Wow! What size tire and how much higher is the Pro than the standard 4x4? I'm slowly turning mine into a Pro wanna be.

    You’re killing me. Just bought that, too (bought led for window switches yesterday). What else have you done lately?

    Saw your 41” light bar. What/where’d you get it? How’s the output? Is the hood bulge bar & bumper bar the same?
    May get the hood bulge bar. Gonna eventually get an SSO winch bumper, so will hold off on bumper bar till then.

    This is the 41” light bar. I did have to cut the hood a little for a better fit.

    Yes the dash speakers are.... amp and subwoofer are off Amazon. I just wanted a little more for my country music and it’s perfect. I will soon be changing my front door speakers out also. That will complete my audio system.

    Leave it in the sun and give it time. Often the air will permeate slowly thru the vinyl and turn out looking good
