| What did you do to your Toyota today?
I sold a bunch of extra toyota parts I had laying around, along with that low hanging bumper! I ripped my dash apart and installed a new HVAC system I won off of ebay for $34!! It is brand new with all new knobs and AC switch! I also took my door panels apart and put some fabric on them. Took some insulation and lined both the doors, and Wow what a difference, quiet and warmth! When I sold all of my parts I also got rid of my camper shell becuase my neighbor had one for free! What a find! The shell is made for the curve of the xtra cab, it also has brackets on it for a roof rack! Now all I have left is to repair my dash. What did you do to your Toyota today? |

| Made the left headlight on my Camry point straighter. The housing is broken, but the bulb was crooked until I straightened one of the tabs. It was a little better in the fog tonight.

| hey, one piece of info/experience. Last summer I built a garden shed and found a awsome pirmer for wood. It's kind'a pricey, but it's BHER EXTERIOR PRIMER, at home depot/lowes. It's got a purple label. But this stuff will straight lock up the wood, seal it, and should be perfict if you are using the wood, OH what's it called? The multi strand fiber/chip board that's used on roofs that is compressed w/glue. | |
