    We boost install hidden hardwire question / ideas

    I tucked the main unit between the interior panel and base of the driver side third row seat. It’s pretty tucked away and does not interfere with the third row seat. I ran the antenna cable from the outside of the tailgate to the roof. Eventually I’m gonna reroute the antenna cable out thru the...

    What have you done to your 200 Series this week?

    This video shows the clips/parts that hold the windshield trim... iirc I used a specific toyota "flexible epoxy" (or something) to attach one of those upper clips

(see photo and video) 2013 LC Driving over things like speed bumps, when the rear makes it over the hump (like when it gets over the bump and back to the ground) I'm getting this really loud "clang" sound.

    Road Top 8.8"/8.9" CarPlay Screen

    Hey @grinchy on the 7” I’ve been using a magnetic mount. Just slapped the metal plate on the back of the unit. It’s been pretty solid for daily driving. I have not done any Baja 1000 type testing, so ymmv ;)

    Road Top 8.8"/8.9" CarPlay Screen

    Weird. I tried the hikity 9” “low profile” and their rear view mirror. And they all worked the same way as this 7”. Also. The 7 I have is an older model compared to the 9 and 10.26.

    Road Top 8.8"/8.9" CarPlay Screen

    @Bryanmc @grinchy what do you mean/expect by “dual Bluetooth”? There’s a screen for setting the output. You can choose the built on speaker, Bluetooth, aux cable , or fm transmitter. Or is there a different feature you’re taking about?

    Road Top 8.8"/8.9" CarPlay Screen

    @Bryanmc I been pretty happy with Hikity Portable Car Stereo Apple... Note that this model is an older model and does not have auto bright control. I stumbled into the hikity brand on Amazon while trying out a bunch of these CarPlay screens. I like that (using iOS) it does not need an aux...

    Swingaway Hitch Carrier v2

    Rec’d the Kuat pivot v2 today. The tailgate contacts the top of the rear most bar (the fixed bar) when you crank up the anti-rattle. Soooo close! When you loosely fit the carrier, there’s like 2 sheets of paper clearance between it and the tailgate. If you apply any pressure to the tailgate...

    SQOD Squad - Stupid Question Of the Day

    Big stupid question(s) Investigating a rattle/clank in the rear. Notice the rear driver shock is loose (upper, wiggles laterally 1-2mm by hand) I had a shop install OME Nitrocharger 61029 to replace a leaking Tough Dog shock; apparently they didn’t install the “lower upper” washer/cup; the one...

    Swingaway Hitch Carrier v2

    Same. I have one on order. Kuat pivot v1 pivot bolt definitely hit the tailgate, was hoping the v2 with the flatter pivot would clear.
