I called the local automotive electronics shop a few months ago about installing a starter and was told they were waiting on some type of override to become available. Apparently they now have everything required because they called me back and said come on down. Compustar is the brand they...

I doubt that's accurate as it would be illegal in some states. Here in MA, front and back side windows are the same, 35% is the legal max.

You don't have to jump a curb to test the 4wd. Just drive around in a circle. Then on a straightaway, engage 4H and circle around again. There should be a lot of resistance when turning on pavement. You can do this at very slow speeds.

Finally got an official notice in the mail yesterday. Nothing new, it just states they are preparing the remedy and we will be notified again when it is ready.

Wired the lock on the rear window of my cap. The installer told me LEER hasn't come out with a harness for it yet so they couldn't wire it. I've been using the physical key since I've had it but now it locks/unlocks with the tailgate. Used some 20 awg 2-wire cable lying around the shop and...

My 6mt isn't remote start capable from the factory. That's the only feature I would consider paying for, but not at that price. I will let the free trials expire and won't think much of it. Although the occasional reminder that I forgot to lock the doors is nice, but not necessary.

Wondering what NYTOP had to say when you contacted them? Their product page has a ton of pics, none of them appear to show gaps like yours has.

I was under the impression that the kits were plug and play. You shouldn't need to tap into any individual conductors. Not sure if it connects to the trailer wiring or behind the tail lights, but you should just be removing a connector(s) and plugging in their t-tap(s.)

Sorry I know it's been a little while since I posted this and I have been meaning to. I only ever think about it when it's not convenient to get a pic. It may actually get above freezing this weekend and I will be back there wiring my cap's elec lock so I will hopefully remember to grab some...

Either it wasn't cleaned properly before paint, or there were contaminants in the paint itself. At the very least you should take it to a dealership and voice your concerns. Make sure to get something in writing to start a document trail. I doubt they're going to do anything at this time, but...

My LEER looks the same, as do all the pics I've seen of them on 4th gens. Some of the A.R.E. caps look similar, only they are less noticeable. I am wondering now if I put a straight edge along the cap would it be true? Is it actually bowed out or is it an illusion created by the body lines of...

Too many mixed reviews for me. One Tacoma owner claimed it damaged their tailgate. I'm going to purchase the Pop & Lock one, it's universal and the vendor states it works on the 4th gens. Tailgate Defender - Tacoma Lifestyle

Most all fiberglass caps have what they call skirted sides meaning they overhang the bed sides. It's for styling and keeping the weather out. My rail caps aren't visible at all with the LEER cap on. The steel or aluminum ones sit on top of the rails.

Yeah mine arrived yesterday but it's currently 14°F and we're getting more snow this week so it probably won't be going on until next month maybe.

Finally got a shipping notice, should be here this week.

No way, they go on FB marketplace or Craigslist intact, and sell for hundreds of dollars. They are not stealing tailgates for less than $10 worth of scrap metal. This was a big thing with 3rd gen’s because replacing a damaged one could be more than $1000. Some people would rather get a cheap...

I have the V4x4 panels all around and I didn't do anything with the bottom driver's side. I bolted the rubber bumpers behind the panels but didn't drill into the bed and it is perfectly fine for my needs. Although all I have on that side right now is a med kit and a Element fire extinguisher...

Update from RealTruck: The Husky bug shields are out of stock until 2/14/25.

I drove a Santa Cruz for over a year before this truck. Not a bad vehicle, just not a real truck. Kinda like the Maverick :wink:. So I can relate to the OP's Tacoma envy. It's a real thing, for sure. There are better ways to deal with it, though.

I have the Rokblokz rally mud flaps on mine. They are very flexible but don't flap around while driving. They're is a good pic right in this thread of the improved coverage over stock. Glad I got mine on before winter arrived.
