    Good to hear! I am personally bought into their ecosystem, so I do not hesitate any more. Even bought the regular case for my work phone.

    man, I have been getting some comments here ever since it was pointed out to me. I am a little nervous for the road trip, but I love not wearing glasses in mine anymore...

    What % do you have? I have 50% on the windshield and 5% on the rest and have not had any issues at all. I have been using 5% since the early 90's.

    Which rotors and pads did you go with? I had EBC rotors and pads before but not on this tundra. Planning on doing brakes soon.

    I did the dimpled/slotted with the yellow pads. Green pads are on manufacturer backorder for a few months. Looking forward to it! Turning my OEM front rotors was a waste. Lasted around 10k miles.

    Ordering tires and wondering if I should replace the TPMS's that are the factory originals or wait until they go out. Would suck to get them on and have the sensors fail shortly after.

    I have no clue if the aftermarket ones are as good or if Toyota are the way to go? :confused:

    I’ve gotten mine replaced every time I get tires and have not had any issues in the decades I’ve had it done.

    I bought new OEM sensors for mine when I got tires a few months ago. Apparently they have a 5-10 year lifespan.

    Really... well then maybe I will keep what I have they are all the OEM at about 5.5yrs. I will find out soon enough how much they are when they take the tires off because they will be asking. Thx

    Discount Tire sensors work and are cheaper than OEM.

    Depends on the year. 2020 and newer do not like aftermarket sensors.

    The OEM sensors from Toyota are about $65 each. When I bought tires right after buying the truck I ordered the sensors from Sparks and Discount put them in when they installed the tires.

    Cleaned out leaves from front fender at the door. Never had done it before. Driver's side had a lot. None on the passenger side. No trees around me with these types of leaves. Must've been from the previous owner's place.

    My fellow Tundra owners. I recently bought this for my 16' Highlander, but didn't realize it's only a 4-pin wire hookup. I didn't even think about it till' I got underneath the car.
    Ya'll know this is for Tundra, Tacoma, 4Runner, Landcruiser that come with 8 pin plug harness. Brand new never hooked up. I did have to break the tabs to put a lock pin thru it for security, then realize it will not with the Highlander. Will fit all 2" receiver. Retail price online $160.
    Asking $100 + $15 for shipping. PM if any interested. Paypal only.

    The Highlander isn't 4-pin only, you just need to swap the OEM 4+7 harness into it if you're running an aftermarket hitch. Ask me how I know!

    You should be able to get it to work with a 4 blade to 7 pin adapter since its just running lights. Something like this should work. You don't have to connect to both of the 7 pin connectors on the hitch light.

    They get in up around the hood hinge area and fall from there. I would have to look to see if there is a way to close it off....Like a foam pad type of thing.
