    2013 Tundra SR5 Texas Edition
    Just got my first Tundra. Its a 2013 SR5 Texas Edition. Not sure where to start on mods so thought I would join and see about getting some idea. I do know I am wanting to swap out the Low/High/and Fogs with LED bulbs but have no idea which ones are better than other. Looking forward to speaking to you all and gaining some wisdom on my new truck. I will try and post a picture of my truck how it looks now. LET THE MODDING BEGIN!!!!!

    Unless have an endless supply of money or a wife that doesn't care how much you spend don't come here looking for advice or ideas. This place with have you spending thousands of dollars before the first delivery lands on your porch.

    With that said welcome from the DFW area and let the spending begin.

    Welcome from Ft Worth, Texas.

    The first thing that you do is buy the tic-tac-toe console organizer. Then you buy the tray for the top of the console.
    You'll then need ceramic clear tint for the front windshield. While you're at it, get the whole damn truck tinted. You'll want LED fog lamps as well as those fancy LED OEM headlights. After that, you'll be looking at a new sound system because the factory one sucks more than Stormy Daniels does.
    You're all set after that except a lift and new wheels and tires.
    You'll think about all kinds of other shit after that. Side window visors. Bed cover. Aftermarket bumpers. Interior LEDs. Bull ring tie-downs. Etc.

    It's just like an AR-15. The cheapest damned part is the lower. You go broke getting all the other fuckin' pieces that you want on it.

    I hate loving this damned truck.

    Thanks for the info FogHorn. I ordered the LED bulbs for the low beams and fog lights and switchback LED for the turn signals. Will I need load capacitors to control the flickering on the turn signals? Also, thanks for the info on the tray. I’m going to have to order one of those also. Will it fit the 2013 Tundra also?
