PMG's Tunny

Very nice and clean install. The power source you tapped for the radar is not enough to run it?

 

Didn't cross my mind honestly.

 

Nice, I have same camera and it already helped me when I got cut off and nailed an SUV. Dude tried to enter gasstation crossing carpool lane without consideration for 7k lb truck in his way.

 

Is it just me or your steps look like they are not squarE? Like as if the front part sticks out more than the rear and those holes aren't even symmetrical?

 

@BlueBottle it does taper towards the back.


Installed some Katzkins leather seat covers. It's the entry level one where it's part leather and part synthetic. I ordered black, but the shade came out more charcoal. I honestly don't know if there was a mixup, but it was already installed and looked good nonetheless. Also had TRD embroidered in silver and I think it matches the silver trim pieces inside the cabin. The wrinkles should straighten out in the heat. I'm pretty happy with the fit and finish considering the cost is half what the dealer would charge for the same material. Thanks to @Coolhardy for the hookups!

 

Quick question, did you have to remove the center console in order to remove the cig plug lower panel?

 

Not absolutely needed but it does make it a little easier. The cig plug panel is tough to get a good grip on. You’ll want a panel pry tool to help for sure. The center console is pretty easy to remove though. Everything is held in with clips. Remove the shifter handle, then open the center console lid and use your panel pry bar along the front inside lip of the center storage console to pop out the whole center console cover. After that is removed pry along the bottom and sides of the cig panel to loosen it and pop it out. It’s somewhat interlocked with the ac control panel which is also held in with clips so the two panels tend to come out together. Tip them gently up and out from the bottom.

 

I ended up removing the consol. It does make it easier. I finished the install today, and can't say how awesome this mod and how easy @TundraTex product makes it work. Highly recommended. I'll be sure to post pics tomorrow.

 

Well done spook! I didn't remind the console but I did use a plastic pry tool. Started from the bottom up (cig panel to radio)

 

Awesome truck - thanks for sharing!

I have a similar vision for mine.

 

I love the truck man! You have the exact setup of wheels and tires I'm looking at for my tundra. Did you deal with much rubbing? The one thing Im wandering is the weight difference going from stock to the 295/70? Does the truck feel sluggish after the level and bigger wheels? I know its going to affect how "peppy" it feels but I'm trying to gauge how much more sluggish it feels.

 

sorry for the late reply... does feel a little more sluggish with the wheels and level, but not bad at all; maybe 10%.. mpg dropped a little but so what.. rubbing was slight, but remedied with the fender liner mod (threads on this).

 

Installed a Rough Country 30 light bar. Comes with all the trimmings to install above the license plate. Took me about 1.5 hours. No need to remove the grill or bumper..

Also installed a CaliRaised foglight kit. Comes with brackets and install is pretty straight forward; I just needed to massage the bumper opening a little to get the bracket to fit just right.. I still need to adjust it, but I'm happy with them for now.. No night pics yet.


Overall very happy with the products considering the cost.

 

Looks great!!

 

Wired up a Mictuning switch to the Rough country led bar.
