What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Yes it is. No issues. They supply step by step instructions I followed. Yes I installed it all at the same time. The last thing I want is to do it again lol.

 

great stuff - I just had Focal components put in the front and rear of mine. they said they need to break in but they sound great now!

 

so now you have me spending money lol - what winch did you go with ? im trying to figure out which ones require the holes and which ones dont. on the site it just says OEM ....does that mean Warn winches dont require the holes? what light bar did you go with ? sorry to blow you up with questions but i love the looks of that bumper!

 

I concur, DD if you want SAE approved lights and the BD if you want stupid bright lights. Both are great options…

 

Got the VLED footwell kit installed today…finishes interior led upgrade…

 

OEM tailgate lock installed.

 

Stole this from someone - - I think @MARanger . Pretty simple increase in safety.

Amazon.com: Reflective Tape Waterproof Outdoor Red & Yellow, Reflector Tape High Visibility Hazard Caution Warning Safety Adhesive Tape (2" X 30FT) : Industrial & Scientific

Hides perfectly under the tonneau.

 

mine is waiting - how much of a pain in the ass is it lol?

 

Pretty easy install....

Not bad at all. I think the hardest part was getting the clam shell grommets that clip into the tailgate to snap together with the harnesses in them!

Pulling the trim pieces was pretty easy. Only thing i needed a forked removal tool for was to pry the white clips out of the kick panel.

 

Just got done watching video install again. Plan on ordering one soon.

 

I think I saw you a month or so ago near greenwoodlake?

 

Finally got the Matt Gecko bed and hood light kits put in. Big thanks to my buddy who ended up doing 99% of the instal while I clambered around. Mounted the push button for the engine bay on the fuse box lid. Lights are great, pictures are with almost complete darkness in my garage.

 

I think diode were 300. Theyre amazing

 

I ordered from Amazon. Toyota dealer. Got here in a day.

 

These look great! I've had Matt Gecko lights sitting in a box in my garage for a month. Haven't had time to install them yet, but I think you just motivated me!

Speaking of lights, I just added this to my shopping cart. Out of all the light bar options, I really like this one because it's subtle:

However, before I click any further, I'm a little concerned about the light bar blocking the air flow to the tranny cooler... it's right behind that little grille area where the light bar goes. Anyone think it matters all that much?

 

Nice. I ordered the exact same set on 12/31, but haven't heard anything yet.

 

Thanks. Yea I’ve had mine sitting around for months. Glad it’s done.

That DD light from Hotshot is on my short list. From what I’ve read, and if I’m remembering correctly, guys who went with the 42” have problems with the brackets not holding it level. Something about the brackets not being robust enough for the weight of the light bar. Haven’t heard/seen the same complaint for the 30” bar though, which is what I’ll go with when I get there.

Can’t answer anything about the trans cooler. Definitely outside my realm haha.

 

Swapped my TSS wheels with Methods MR313. They're 20x9.5 inches, +25 offset & weigh only 31.5 lbs per wheel.

 

Lol,maybe labour shortages there?

No worries. I wish I got a nickel evertime someone blamed me for spending tbeir money lol.

I got a warn platinum xeon, think it was 10s. Side note that winch allows you to run 2 other accessories off it too and theyre operated off the warn wireless remote. I think the oem look without holes is specifically for that winch, since I can remotely engage and disengage. Other winches that require access to them would require the holes. This winch also has a relocation kit which allows you to mount the solenoid behind the grill. The fit is tight between the winch and baja designs s8 light bar. I mean very tight. However it fits perfect within the bumper. Also pretty cool is how the scallop the bumper to perfectly match the S8 lightbar.

I don't mind answering the questions, that's how we all learn. However if you want specifics I have a build page same as my username. I also did a thread specifically on the install.

 

I'm kinda 60-40 on if I love the carbon fiber. Will give it a few weeks. Easy enough to go back. Please note I ordered the correct steering wheel parts and receive wrong, correct one on the way, having fun with the sharpie.

 

Good to know, thanks. I’m planning to go with the 30” anyway, I like how it’s tucked behind the lower grille. Just not sure about the trans cooler air flow quite yet.

 

Why would you want the seat lower? I’m taller than you and have zero issues.

 

Reach out to Brian, he usually responds in a few hours. If you need his contact info let me know, but it should be on the confirmation email you received after ordering. Your order should be coming up quick - great pick!

 

Any chance we can get a pic looking at the overlay from the passenger doorway? Have these on my list but concerned a lot of silver will still be visible.

 

Height is a total of leg length and torso. You may be taller but we’re not all built the same. I’m guessing that you don’t have any suggestions for lowering the seat.

 

I'm pretty confident you are probably correct. Hopefully I didn't pass you driving like an asshole.

 

I installed my interior LED bulbs and managed to blow a fuse when I was fiddling with the driver foot light. I can't get the damn LED bulb to fit in that one

I've been thinking about this. Did you use part Pk6b6-34js0? Where did you get yours from? I'm assuming this would also work on my 2014
