What have you done to your Tacoma today?

[Bojangles]

Installed the oem bed lock kit on the SR5. Debating on wrapping the headlights in light smoke vinyl today .

Why would you decrease light output?

Will see how it works out. It’s light smoke so shouldn’t be a big difference.

It’s basically like the pop-n-lock but comes from Toyota (lock actuator, plug and play harnesses, plastic and metal tie straps and replacement harness clips). Super easy install.

Locks/unlocks with the key fob. It gives piece of mind against tailgate theft.

I think price was not that much more than the PnL. I just like adding OEM parts where I can. It’s my second set (first one went on the TRD OR) and have been happy with it. No issues so far.

I have loaded the Taco with all the biking, kayaking and hotel gear my wife could find. I hope I survive a week on the Gulf of Mexico. I am so glad I have a truck with a camper top, I can carry everything she, not me, needs!

I guess I am getting old and have started waking up with the sun! So I washed and waxed before the heat.

Reminds me of a buddy when we went to the range at his gun club. He place a nickel taped to a target at the 100 yd. line. Took his scoped 30/06, an placed a round right through the center of the nickel.
In other action i took my weatherby mark 22 at the 50 yard mark and placed 10 rounds in a dime size circle. Its my favorite 22 rifle for sniping squirrels.

Washed, waxed & beer in the heat.

You do know that wax melts at 80 degrees. So why wax? Use polish instead.

ugh thought it was 80 degrees celsius.
I used Meguiar’s Gold Class liquid wax in the shade was easy to pamper. Considering nano ceramic coating for next application. Any knowledge of this type?

I've used Blackfire Crystal Seal. A little goes a long way. Have only heard good things about other nano ceramic coatings from other folks on various forums, so I believe they are all good.

Excellent, thanks!
