Kinda fwp irritated, had to order new wipers for my 2003. Last time i ordered them i found Nwb local for like 30$ for the set. This time I had to buy Toyotas for 42$ plus 15$ to ship. They arrive and they’re nwb’s. Did nwb end aftermarket offerings?
 
Mounted up my new to me Darche Eclipse 270 awning. It’s missing a wall section and guy ropes, but it was a bargain. It only takes two minutes to setup without the walls. Walls add a few minutes. Now we can cook in the rain!

Swapped out my Yakima Fat Cat 6 ski rack to a new Kuat Grip 6 ski rack. Plan is to move the Yakima to my daughter's Crosstrek.

Bought the T-Slot mount kit for it, but basically only using the smaller spacers that came with the kit since the slots it's designed for is bigger than the slots in my rack. Overall, pretty happy with the new rack. Much better build quality, but also heavier. The opening, latching, and lock mechanism is much better than the Yakima and also allows sliding out the skis (although the bindings would hit my rack).

That is a slick rack! And those Enforcers are a favorite ski of mine.
 
Might have made history as the first dumbass to get these on an LX.

Good choice!
As a fellow dumbass who never got them and has ruined both fenders on his previous LX (on separate occasions), I can tell you that they are totally worth it.

I yearn for a set for Blue but unfortunately they don't work without the companion ARB steps!

I’d actually do the exact same if I went with the ARB Deluxe front bumper. Looks really good. Are those ARB side step and side rails? Modified legs to the frame to work with the AHC?

Yes they are! The passenger side steps went on with a bit of work but the driver's side needed some pretty significant modification. I get real determined after I've already spent the money and the choices are 'get it on' or 'accept a loss' XD
 
Today we made our LX a little bit less the previous owners and a little more ours!

1. A proper set of Slee Slider Steps.

2. TLCA sticker, (Member 12427)

3. Got rid of the temporary paper license plate and installed personalized license plate, (a gift from my wife in 2002, this will be the 6th Cruiser it has been on)!

My first chance to hand wash it and a fresh set of cabin filters!

I need to replace my parking brake cable. Been procrastinating, how hard was it?
It wasn't too bad. The most time consuming part is taking the center console apart. Their is one bolt that is under a corner of the gas tank and it was kinda a pain to get off and back on too.
