Thumbs up for Richmond Auto Upholstery on ebay. I did their seat base only along with a new foam cushion from Toyota. Car has 220k miles. You can see the back bolster has some color worn off. I should have done both. I might re-dye / color those two outer panels. Tips: Get a hog-ring pliers...

I should have known someone already did this. I wanted something looking more OEM for 2008 Land Cruiser. The narrowest part of the hole is about 3" (80mm). This fits some Yeti 24 oz cups which are common in my house. It has a printed ledge that drops in to the original sunglasses shaped cup...

thank you for the reply

Appreciate the writeup. Does the Original Audio display show song titles if streaming from Amazon Music or Pandora, for example vs. local music files on the iPhone (iPod mode)? I did see a few competitive and cheaper products now, but it seems they only display song title if playing via apple...

I’m guessing much overlap with >07 tundra 5.7 Second link is more relevant. https://www.tundratalk.net/forums/tundra-problems-maintenance-repair-dealer-warranty-issues/758202-another-bad-fuel-pump-truck-wont-stay-started.html This post is interesting but doesn’t include images...

I am new to this thread. It is interesting. 1. in the GM world and some applications, they use PWM (pulse width modulation) to regulate fuel pressure via duty cycle of the fuel pump. I don't know if the control module is in the pump, in the main ECM or a separate ECM, but use of PWM for fuel...

I solved this issue with a replacement harness. 82114-60130 one of the tiny sensor wires had broken. Maybe by someone replacing and repainting the bumper (PO). I also found the harness connector not clipped in properly, so I know someone had removed the original harness. This was my first...

I wanted to follow up on my own (solved) issue. I had this same screens. Inspecting the parking sensors closely from underneath, I saw a broken wire to the passenger's side harness connector to the parking sensor. These wires are tiny! Maybe 24 gauge. I bought 82114-60130 engine room wire...

Thanks all for the info here. I upgraded to the Hikari's Eye of Megatron! (interesting name... are 7 y/o's part of the target audience) For a very reasonable sum ($39). And with a nice lighting upgrade vs. the original bulbs. I will mention the Hikari plugs are labeled + / -. The plugs fit...

That sucks! I put a great windshield in my tundra for about $180. I found the installer on Craigslist. Too bad you didn’t find that crack upfront. The you could have had a cheap windshield put in it. They’d never have known.

I would assume since the engine is extremely similar to the Tundra that the issues overlap in the programming of the PCM / ECM. Assuming it runs well except when it won't start... I wouldn't go buying new injectors. This Tundra owner seems to have had very similar symptoms...

I want to say thanks to those who posted here these instructions. I probably am guilty of not reading the instructions thoroughly and not watching every moment of the video. I did this procedure successfully, but also made a mess when I wrongfully assumed the soft line connected to the hard...

I would not hesitate on mileage. As a Toyota person, you already know that. I bought a 2008 Tundra with 150k miles with the 5.7. I put new shocks on and it drives like new. My 200 has 169k miles and it drives beautifully and almost looks new after a clay bar, polish and interior detail. It...

Thanks MUCH for this writeup. My new-to-me, one-owner, dealer-serviced 200 had the square drive arm pop out from the fresh / recirc door. Sort of disappointing dealer techs would have jammed the door and not fixed it. I guess no guarantee a tech didn't, but toyota.com shows incremental 30k...

Thank you for the update
