In these uncertain times, the only true certainty is that I do not need another 100.

I convinced my ex-husband, back in 2012, to buy a gray 2002. I loved it so much I sold my 5th Gen 4Runner to get one for myself because he didn't want me driving his, and bought my 2007 in 2015.

This morning I bought his 2002.

Needs lots of love and attention. I'm very happy my husband, @Onur , supported this purchase and has already ordered tons of parts for it.

His only caveat is this: if things get rough financially, this one is first on the chopping block. 😅

D'oh! Another snorkel for Onur to remove. lol
 
These came in and like a little boy seing a matchbox on the table, I went right at it.

Any chance of sharing what type bulb/kelvin these are? Seems to be mixed views on what K these globes need to be to get the white spot on.

At what point does one cross the line from being a 100 series enthusiast, to being a 100 series hoarder?

Of course, I don't have this issue, I'm just asking for a friend!

Stronger LED? we need some night shots.
Yes switched to LEDs. The AHC switch has 3 bulbs on it, dismantled it and took out the busted halogen bulbs.

The output is good, not too bright to glare me out, brought out the fine lines of the lettering, no blots, quite happy with it for the price I paid.

I just took a shot at amazon, so far so good.

These led bulbs are specific for our illuminated switches.
 
who makes this?

You can go with any 31 or 32 inch LED slim light bar. I was gonna go with either this or this or this. But I ended up finding a similar no name slim bar from a local warehouse in Paramount, CA (on Offerup). I just looked it up, I think this is it: 32in slim led light bar . Got a 32" bar for $55. We see if it lasts, if not I'm gonna get one of those from Amazon.
 
Took a couple days more for delivery got the 315/75/16 Cooper Discoverer SST PRO's on this morning. Had to snip a bit of the front inner wheel arch's , this was the only bit I was worried about really, so doh. But easily took the mud gaurd off and chopped the plastic. Will need some additional grinding back and some paint work. But overall quite content this worked without major dissapointment.

Remove liner. Hammer metal pinch weld. Rattle can paint. Re-install liner. Go wheeling

Looks great! Worth the fender mod.

Got pics/thread? Does that include mud gaurd ? new/modded attached piece somewhere or the mud gaurd just not going to go back on this
 
Figured out what caused the clunk every time I shut my driver's door. Repaired the ML speaker a while back and just figured I messed up and it was the cone getting flung around again. Turns out I was wrong.

Found this guy just chilling inside the door when I cleaned it for my sound dampening install. My window functions fine and it appears one of these is already in there... I think this is now number one in the running for the laziest "repair" ever.
