What have you done to your ride lately?

Picked up some 08 heated mirrors. Spent a few hours reading the schematics and studying the wire colors then installing. Wasn't too bad and I'm happy with the results






While I was wiring stuff up and changing bulbs, I converted the brake lights and reverse lights to LEDs. Left is LEDs and right is stock, subtle difference


I then removed the seats and ran the wiring for OEM heated seats, I need to source the connectors for the heated seats as they have more pinouts than the regular power seats


Here's a view at night


I also installed switchback LED running lights/turn signals, they are pretty bright and am happy with how they turned out. I just need to get some brighter headlights now :D

Nice!

Even though it is hot as balls outside I got some things done. Clay bar, 2 coats of Zaino polish, new air filter and new cabin filter.

You neglected to mention tire shine.

I need to leave my 4Runner at your house. I am pretty confident that your OCD will make you clay bar it.

The e locker wiring harness is in pulled and zip tied nicely into place. I managed to get the plug through the firewall grommet on the driver's side but I had to pull the grommet out first. I do like the way it all went back together really clean though. Tomorrow night I have dinner w/ my sammich maker-in-law and wife in Ft Worth; so it will not be until Wednesday that I get to finish the install. It will be nice to get the e locker finished up.

Looks great, nice and clean install! I did same thing pulling wires the other weekend on the ford, getting it through that grommet is a bitch, I used a razor to split it a little then pulled it through with my rusty coat hanger lol
