    Wiring multiple lights

    What is the best, proven way of connecting multiple lights to a single switch? Specifically the 2-1 connection method. I would like to connect 2- 6" or 7" round lights on the front bumper to a single switch. I'm looking at Deutsch connection splitters for a removable and waterproof setup...

    Radiator 2nd choice

    What is the general consensus on a radiator supplier/brand if OEM is not available? I don't have time to wait for an OEM option to ship who knows when. My local NAPA can get a Denso next day for $450. Any connections on reliable aftermarket options? Thanks!

    Peak red coolant alternative

    Just saw this at my local auto store and was curious if anyone had any info/used it/etc. It would be cheaper than Toyota branded coolant, but more importantly easier for me to obtain. I'll be replacing the radiator soon and needing a full flush/refill.

    Ignition switch cam replacement

    I'm not 100%, but I believe the "key sense" system, (if you're referring to what recognizes your correct key with the chip), might be in the light up ring that you take off early in the removal process. It should have 1 plug and the green light bulb that plug into it. Again, I'm not 100% but...

    Nakamichi Amp Bypass

    Nope. 2001 with nav. I actually like the setup and I want to keep the nav/tape/ cd changer the way it is. I just want to bypass a dead amp and was gathering more recommendations before I make my choice. Thanks!

    Nakamichi Amp Bypass

    I'm looking at doing this too because I don't understand paying around $300 for a 20 year old amp that's known to blow anyways. Do you have a recommendation on a good replacement. I may replace the sub one day for a little more bass, but I really just want a simple radio.

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Completed my Redarc TowPro install. Pretty proud of the OEM switch look. I also think I finally hit bedrock in what I'm going to take apart for cleaning. Next up is vacuum and shampoo!

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    My kid got in there and pulled about $1 worth of change out. Also found 2 pearls and a diamond stud!

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    I think it might have been soda. It's all so sticky. 😭

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    I really don't know what I did. It started out as replacing the ignition cam and adding trailer brakes. Now the dash is off, the passenger seat and the center console are out, and I found this mess. 🤣😭 Now I have to decipher all of this and figure out what I'm keeping! I'm guessing most of it...

    Ignition switch cam replacement

    At this point, I would say for me it's the ebay option. Once you learn how to do it, it's not that difficult and we'll see how long it lasts. The cost of any others is so much higher that I can't justify the price increase. There are different part numbers so be sure to verify what you have. I...

    Ignition switch cam replacement

    Update just for anyone having the same issues in the future: #1 Pushing the brass tab in and out with a pair of pliers while rotating the whole, unbroken cam counter clockwise will work the cam past the steering lock and free it. #2 If you didn't purchase an OEM cam with the whole assembly...

    Ignition switch cam replacement

    What help? 😆 Some people just want to be salty because it makes them feel better than others, I get it. Thanks for...whatever?

    Ignition switch cam replacement

    Umm...ok? If I did miss it, do you have any help in the matter or just smarta$$, pointless replies?

    Ignition switch cam replacement

    Yeah, I'm not referring to the key switch. That comes out easily. I was referring to the cam piece behind the key switch. The piece that is known for breaking. But I can't find any information on how to remove an unbroken one.
