    Yes they do. I have not attended since Winter kicked up, but plan to get back into it shortly. Was just discussing with my nephew who has a nice Mini and hangs with the Mini group at the show. We were just planning a "detailing" weekend to get the rides ready I think I got the better end of the deal. I help him detail his Mini, and he helps me detail the Tundra :D

    Their web site, including the schedule is: http://carsandcoffeerichmond.com/

    Also, it's held in the parking lot at: Regency Square Mall: 8 - 10am, 1420 N Parham Rd

    @BayRunner Hi- I have a very similar light build as yours, but for the fog. However, seems when I'm in drive and have my blinkers on, the a/c back light panels seems to blink as well. Very odd because everything else is functioning on the tail light (break, blinkers, tail light, reverse), headlights (DRL, low/high beams) and fog.

    Have you experienced anything like this? Any suggestion be appreciated

    Headlights: 2018 Tundra LED w/black housing
    Fog: Morimoto LED fog
    Taillights: Spyder LED Smoke Black

    That is very strange indeed and I have not experienced this at all. Everything on my setup works as it should.

    1. My first question would be whose headlight harness did you use and also 1st or second generation harness. 1st generation uses the Moto LED controller and 2nd gen does not.
    2. Secondly, did you re=pin the turn signal wire on your truck for the new headlight. Note: This may not apply if you were provided an adapter cable for your turn signal plug that goes between the turn signal and headlight harness. Again, this depends on the harness you used.
    3. If you can rule out the harness and/or turn signal wire (re-pinning), I'd start ruling out other causes. I'd start with the fogs since they are not OEM. Check your wiring "+" / "-" connections and other contacts. Try unplugging the fogs and power connectors and see if this changes anything.
    Just my .02.

    @BayRunner --Good suggestions.

    1. I use an adapter by https://www.instagram.com/dmv_slightwork/ which we used the MotoControl Bi-Xenon: H4/9003
    2. n/a
    3. This is a good one. I'll have to try this-

    I'll have to double check those suggestions after hurricane florence passes this week. I'll let you know how it goes. Thank you!

    I had a local Vinyl shop do it. He custom created the hood insert and the side stripes. Was very pleased with the results.

    Looks extremely good at night and gives it a very high end look and feel. It is definitely worth the purchase for @Sting Ray doea a good job

    Thanks! I appreciate it. Glad I could play a small part in making your truck even more bad ass!

    Man, I followed the link in your sig from your Sedona thread so I could see your build.... You have way more cool s#!t on your truck than this. Need to update that first post. :boink:

    I was specifically looking to see what kind of bumper you have.

    Yea, it’s been on my todo list to update my build thread, but prepping for Sedona had me busy for a while.

    I’m running the nFab bumper on the front and the ICI Alumilite bumper on the rear. The spare tire carrier is a hitch carrier and not part of the bumper. It’s a DirtCom TrailSwing HD. I really like it and it performed well out on the Sedona trails.
