Have you had a chance to install the MX4 upgrade kit on your oem cover? Did it work?? Curious as I just finished a multiday offroad trip. Lots of dust and a good deal in the closed bed. Wonder if this kit might help?
Rear view mirror camera is just fine. Just delivered something and had the tonneau cover up and locked in place. Flipped the rear view mirror on and it was great.
Yep, almost 2 days just to find the short and another day to put it all back together! At first the rail with the lights (one piece) was on backorder and all available were headed to the manufacturing plant! Only recently was I told the part would come in between the 13th and 28th. Still waiting.
Bed scene lights on the driver side rail had a short that was taking out the bed scene lights, interior bed lights and cargo lights. Had to be DOA from the factory. I didn't know they were standard on the Trailhunter and sales folks at purchasing dealer didn't yet know how-to turn them on! I...
These were so new and dealer I purchased from had the truck for about 6 hours before I showed up to get it.
On the potentially compromised plastic clips on the cover, all three clips are molded the same. I think it's just a poor design or a flaw in the extrusion of the part in manufacturing...
Good question. Bed scene lighting DOA should have held it. Snorkel cover, who knows. Everything else I've tested is good so far. Four wheel hi and low, rear differential lock and sway bar disconnect to be tested on a local offroad trip this weekend.
Yes, I did take early delivery June 18th!
Well, the lower cover just won't stay on. Poor design that Toyota has acknowledged is a problem. Mine came off just washing the truck! Another Trailhunter owner has reported his falling off driving down the highway!! The 3 little plastic clips just will not hold the cover on! I've removed...
They acknowledge there's a problem, presumably with the design. No solution mentioned. I have my cover. I just took it off and am saving it. We'll just have to see if Toyota acts on the acknowledged problem.
I'd be VERY CURIOUS as to the snorkel part!!! I've already complained directly to Toyota about the cheap crappy way that the cover on the bottom of the snorkel DOES NOT hold the cover on well at all. I was contacted my my local dealer customer service manager and all he was able to say was...
Bedliner yes. Everything else was standard on the Trailhunter.
Very well could be the combo of all that. ARB bar itself didn't seem to weigh that much when I removed it.
My Trailhunter came with a little yellow sticker reducing the total weight...assume it's the weight of the ARB Sports bar, but just guessing. Purchased back in June.
Oh, nice idea! I used to be able to tuck a 45 between the driver seat and center console in my 80 series Landcruiser. No room there in the Trailhunter. Offroad with big critters like bears, that's my personal choice, even in Commifornia. Yes, I do have my CCW.
My other FT-8800 stayed with the Landcruiser when I sold it. I don't want to do anything permanent until I'm more comfortable with the truck and where I want everything.
Faceplate looks good there! Tape or velcro to hold it in place? I didn't remove the seat. Moved it all thecway forward, used a little left over velcro to hold it in place. I ran the wires out the side down under the plastic runner at the door. I could clean it up a little by poking a hole...
