    Dissent Off Road Rear Bumper Combo Lights Install Wiring Questions

    Hoping this is the right forum for this but does anyone have experience wiring in the Dissent rear combo lights? Which wires are which? Best way to splice them into the existing system (2000 LX470) ? Looking for any help. Thanks

    I did. Took about 3 days total. Could go faster with a 2nd set of hands. Fairly straight forward although the instructions weren't the clearest. I haven't wired the rear lights yet and still have to find a place to locate my Warn winch control box.

    Subwoofer - What is the best size for under the front passenger seat??

    Thanks @MongooseGA - I would rather use the factory location for sure - the issue is my installer is a bit like the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld - he refuses to do anything with a sub unless it's in a box in the trunk. But he's very affordable and very good at what he does. He said that if I wanted...

    Thanks @skymast. Any experience buying a replacement steering wheel from the ones offered on eBay? They look pretty good and replacement process looks fairly simple. Just wondering about the quality of the replacement wheels online. Seems like they are all in the $400 range.

    Hi all - picked up my first J100 yesterday (Lexus LX470) - SO excited. Been a tinkerer for several years now. Previously owned a sweet 1968 F250 and a 1988 Ford Bronco. Jumped to a LC as I'm a family man and just like creature comforts now in my middle age ;) - I'm sick of battling the old Ford...
