Got LEDs installed in my DRLs and Headlights

Before:

After:


I went with the DDM Saber 40W LEDs and love them!

In the headlights I used the Xenon Depot LED Headlight Kit. Good Color in the day time but we will see how they perform.


Wasn't able to get the fogs done yet. The DDM Saber doesn't fit the fog lamp location. The housing of the LED interferes with part of the Fog light.

Got the 4Runner tinted 5/4/17

Did a lot of research and went with the Llumar Pinnacle Series and 15% all around. I also went with a clear UV film on the windshield to keep it cooler.

Really like the turn out

Nice! Looking forward to watching your build. Going through the same thing with my 16 TEP 4Runner. Enjoy!
After enjoying your 4th Gen build, I'm looking forward to seeing where you go with this one.
Thanks everyone. Going to be a little different route than the 4th Gen but still going to be a great adventure!

See you out there!

Installed my ARB Differential Breather today.

Easy job. Took me 30 minutes to do but I have done these before. Longest part of the job was running the line all the way up to the engine compartment.

I've usually ran the line to the gas cap as most but thought I would give this a try and really like the turn out.

Hey @The Nothing I have a couple places. So for my work vehicle I went with a cheap tint that looks good. I got this done at Alexia's Window Tinting in Beaverton. I've used them on a couple work vehicles. They have great color, no arguments on going with an illegal level and are quick. The last time I drove in to make an appointment and they said they could just do it right then and I was out the door in 45 minutes.
For the 4Runner I did some research and really wanted to get a really good tint for the rig. In what I found the best tint out there was a Llumar Pinnacle Series. It has excellent UV protection and nice color. It actually is easier to see out of my 4runner at night at 15% than it is my work vehicle which is at 20%. The only place that the Llumar website said did this was Ultimate Window Tinting in Vancouver,WA. It's not far and they take off sales tax for OR residents. They are great and I am really impressed with the outcome. They also some laser edger (I forget the name) that makes it have no edge on the window so you can see where the tint ends/begins.

Highly Suggest these guys!

Sure is purdy.
Thanks man!

Got a couple items out of the garage and onto the rig today!

Installed my Metaltech OPOR Sliders and absolutely love them.

Started off with them on Jack Stands


Then used the jack to line them up


I'm really digging the new bubble wrap powdercoat option


But really they turned out AWESOME




But I'm also super stoked to open those boxes in the background


Also installed the Rear View Camera Override Dongle. I'll try to get pictures of that.
