    It was time to give her a little coat of wax. Going to have to remove rear shell soon.

    When I installed a cabin air filter a few weeks ago, I had the blower off the truck overnight and it rained. Next morning I found small puddle of water on the passenger floor mat. I reviewed the water leaks thread. Not sure I needed to do this, but I bought new clips (need 8) that take screws and sealed them using butyl rubber rope that I had already and smashed into a gasket. My old clips (that secure the posterior edge by the windshield) were in good shape but the original foam seals were crumbling or gone. I also bought clips (need 6) that secure the anterior edge of closest to the engine and under the hood. I don't think I needed to actually replace all of the clips but why not. There was a lot of grime and dirt so this was a good time to clean that area.

    Also, I cleaned out the pocket behind the splash guard inside each of the front doors. The driver side had very little debris but the passenger side had a full handful of leaves, pine needles, and dirt. I pulled most of it out and then used my shopvac to remove the rest. I could imagine this leading to corrosion if wet plant material stays stuck in there.

    Edit: I now realize this photo is of my GX. I didn't take a photo of the Tundra clean out, but this mess in the GX is what inspired me to check.

    Finally made it to Oceano Dunes for some camping on the beach. Had a good time cruising around the dunes a bit, playing with my RC car and wading in the water.

    Got to pull a SXS out as well who got high centered on a dune. For some reason none of his wheels were turning so put it in neutral and pulled him out. They struggled for awhile but eventually got it working again.

    Nice! I still haven't done mine yet. I ordered and received the parts already but it has rained several times since I noticed pooling in my passenger footwell the one time and I haven't had seen anything since then. Maybe didn't close the passenger door all the way or something??? A bit puzzled by it, but at least if I do notice it again I'll have everything ready to go. I was going to use silicone waterproof seal on it, but heard that's not a good idea since it can promote rust directly on metal so I'll probably do what you did.
