Post 140 on page 7 has pics of the box and install. They were some cheapies at Walmart of all places. Have had them since that post and they have held up great.

More bored tinkering. Rock chips are starting to crack on the hood so sticking with the black highlights theme I ordered some matte black vinyl and did the hood. Looks great from 5ft, don't get too close... Very pleased with it for my first large panel vinyl wrap. The paint chips show up underneath, but the purpose is to keep the paint from stripping and rusting and that should work.
Matched up the fenders and body panels on the doors as well.

Question, just got the ditch lights to install, but wondering what switch you used? I put fog lights on my last Sequoia and it came with the switch to go in the dash like a factory switch. I thought about going that route again and just replacing with new lenses form the kit, but use the switch from the kit to wire in the ditch lights since it is wired for fogs from the factory via the headlight switch. Input?

Check out. Have links to the switches I used. From AOB. Last post has the wiring setup
1st Gen Sequoia middle console switch panel
Currently working with a friend of mine on a 6 slot panel for the middle console. This panel snaps into place like the Oem panel and accepts factory and aftermarket Toyota switches. First print will be done 4/9 and I will test fit and post pics. Here is the rendering for now. It will be printed...

25 year flashback... for those of you who grew up in the late '80s early '90s, had my 11-year-old son help me install his first amp and sub yesterday. Just a 12-in down firing kicker for the rear and a Kenwood amp under the front seat. Love it, gives those lows what I needed to round out the system
This is outstanding!
My 05 has sun rash on the hood and top. Otherwise it's great. You have given me an approach to take. I was struggling to figure out how to make a wrap work but didn't think about doing some other things to make it make more sense. Especially since mine is the gold/brown paint color.
How did you handle the weatherstrip stuff between the wheel well flares and the body?

I just masked above the strip and painted it as well.

PSA for those searching in the future. I believe the air bags were shipped from the air bag manufacturer with the black vinyl cover attached. My belief is toyota then slapped a coat of paint to match the interior of whatever color code they had on the line at the time. As most everyone has experienced, this paint layer becomes sticky over the years and collects all kind of dust. I took a rag and some alcohol and cleaned off all the paint. The color stayed in the grain and it looks pretty cool in my opinion.

Shameless plug post, 3k views away from 100k so wanted to get back to the front page.
Haven't done much to the tree lately, just been enjoying it.
