I did. I first cut the sheet in a smaller piece that covered the one section. Then peeled and stuck it on. Then cut it.

Installed the @Diode Dynamics hitch light. I bought the non brake light version. I will report back on brightness tomorrow but if I am being honest for the premium price it misses the mark. The casing that the light comes in I am sure is a generic one and certainly does not work great with the Toyota oversized receiver hitches. You can see from the pics if I set it to where the actual tabs lock in to the side holes it sticks out quite a bit and looks ugly. It also wiggles a ton in that position. I had to just push it in to make it flush and it is fairly snug so I hope it stays that way. I mean $25 on Ebay I would have been completely fine. At $106 I am just meh on it.

You guys are lucky. Ordered my Taco sport premium package in January and still waiting here in Carlisle Pa.

Wow that seems like too long. Is it the hybrid version?

Thank you for sending over the images!

Based on what we see, the product's fitment is indeed consistent with the design intended for the 2024 Tacoma. The slight protrusion you’re observing is due to the placement of the receiver holes by Toyota, which is reflected in both our product images and the installation video.

Installed the VLEDS reverse license plate light. We will see tomorrow AM how the brightness is but install of course was easy and you get the plug to plug right into the 7 way. A bit pricey but of the light is bright enough it will be worth it.

$136 with Labor Day sale.

Reporting back the LVEDS license plate reverse light is brighter than hell. Well worth the money and I am completely satisfied.

Finally my Rough Country steps came in. Got them and the Rough Country leveling kit installed. I am very happen with the leveling kit. Wife is very happy about the steps. At 6'2" and just step in the truck and need to make sure I don't bang my ankle on them and cuss too much.

I tried the vinyl on the stock wheels over the silver. It did not hold up so I continued to shop for a black wheel I liked without poke. I guess I am the oddball because everything has poke so I bought and had installed today the TRD OE wheels. These are perfect for what I wanted.

Ordered from Toyota Direct - Free Shipping $762.18 delivered to my door.

I’m glad the company has reached out to you, this is the second time I’ve seen the same complaint from different people. It seems like the easy fix is for the company to go install it on a 2024 Tacoma and see what it would take to make it fit properly and come out with one to fit. Let us know when you can get that done. I’m guessing you’ll receive a lot more orders.
