    Hey team I hope all is well

    firstly im dialectics so I apologize for any spelling or grammatical errors and I look forward to being an active member of the tundra community

    My fiance and I have just moved back to the bay area (well she has, im still in New Zealand with family enjoying summer for another month or so)

    We just picked up this young man with only 8000 miles!!!! https://imgur.com/a/ahapWEJ

    2016 5.7 sr5 double cab, trd off road , bench seat, charcoal interior , 2 inch leveling kit, with a piggyback tune (il have to open the hood up and have a look when i get there. see what tune it is ect)

    The plan is to keep him for a long time and chip away at some more mods over time ( a few years or so, up to 5 years)

    the one im going to order asap is just a phone holder so i can use google maps when I get there :p
    then over time

    *chrome delete (was going to use line-x but open to suggestions)

    *a full tint

    *interior 3m wrap (I really dont like the silver and want to get rid of all of it haha)

    *an android auto/apple car play (i have samsung the mrs has apple) head unit(maby the 12 inch one by phoenix if I end up getting a job that pays well haha) if not something that can use the mounts from the factory I will pull out. I just want something thats fast and responsive as I work in IT and am a big nerd haha

    *Clazzio leather seat covers

    *wheels (black) and tyers

    the one thing i have no idea if I can do or know how to do
    is there any way i can make the column shiftier look nicer/replace is with a nicer looking one for example her dad has a 2017 platinum escalade and its column shiftier is suuuuuuper nice looking :)

    http://image.automotive.com/f/2015_cadillac_escalade/78372325/gearshift.jpg

    can i just swap something like this in?? there less the $100 on ebay?

    thank you in-advance
    Will

    Welcome! What's this GM shifter you speak of? Black OEM TRD Pro shifter, feels great in the hand. Remove the old one, screwOFF/screwON, super easy daniel son

    My Tesla unit, but if you want easy plug-n-play, no potential headaches, get a tried true Pioneer/Kenwood/Alpine HU with CarPlay/AndroidAuto.

    Welcome to the forum! I installed the same black TRD shifter listed above. It’s nice if you want to get rid of the chrome. I recently made a carbon fiber sleeve below the TRD to get rid of the chrome below the shifter. ABDF772E-C8A7-4833-BB1F-4EB876CC1E9C.jpg

    Don't think you can easily change the shifter. The tow/haul button is on it and the manual shifter is as well. You would have to find a way to add those and that would make it more difficult.
