I used a velcro strip with adhesive on the base of the flat control box and it sits under the driver seat.

This was a couple of weekends ago but I made some drawers finally!
Well, I got the driver’s side finished today. Passenger side should go easier now that I know what I’m doing. Getting the knuckle/hub/ rotor assembly back on was a real mother. Dayum, it’s heavy. I think I’ll soothe my impending soreness with scotch this evening!Just spent more money this week. Ordered Sankei 555 upper control arms and lower ball joints.

I finally broke down and grabbed one on sale. Got tired of using my bottle jack or borrowing one from my neighbor. I originally was going to buy the Badlands jack but this one was $100 cheaper and works great. I’m a fan of all my HF tools.
Beauty, thanks a bunch!
I bought the car with the “D” light burnt out so this is my first time seeing it on after I replaced the bulb. Is it supposed to be dimmer than the other lights? Reverse, neutral, park, etc.
I tried three bulbs, 2 aftermarket ones and an OEM bulb from dealer.
Part number: 90076-04003

Chassis all cleaned and protected with Chassis ShieldI am new to the 100 series. Coming from the 40 forum OCD Bettle has a really successful, fun thread where we post a pic of wheeling, a fix, a new part, etc. for our trucks.
It's neat to see the mix of projects, daily driving issues, weekend wheelin reports, etc.
I thought the 100 forum could use one...
I'll start...today I ordered an Iron Man 2 inch lift kit for my 99'.

Most comments I have seen is how bright the light is once people install a new bulb. Any chance the previous owner installed some sort of semitransparent sticker thing to make it dimmer?
Are the other bulbs OEM?

That looks great, is it a lanolin-based product? Also, curious to know how you got the booboos on the TOP of your locator arms, or did you reverse them at some time?
retrofitted the EVAP door to accept air filters. kit came from @cruiserpatch and was a no brainer install, minus the pain in the ass of removing and installing the actual door itself. Cleaned up the super dirty coils best I could and we'll see how it works.
Been baselining my new rig (2000 LX470) over the last couple weeks since I got her. still got a lot to do but making progress. got diff bushings done and threw some fresh Falken wildpeaks At4 285/75/16 loving the look. Plan to do a proper build thread on this one.
thank you @Ayune - I will attempt over the weekend.
Yep smelt just like Lanolin or lanotec. No damage on the arms just an illusion created by lightning somehow.That looks great, is it a lanolin-based product? Also, curious to know how you got the booboos on the TOP of your locator arms, or did you reverse them at some time?
Got a new windshield recently, thank you Safelite.
And finally (!) put in the diode to boost the alternator voltage to the AGM Odyssey battery. (h/t @cruiserpatch)
As usual, Mister Memo (AKA Nine8LC ) made it easy with his video.

Finally got rid of the side steps.
A couple of weekends ago, I installed a Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty brake controller, prior to a trip down to Pismo Beach with the RZR. It was a fairly easy install, with the most difficult part running the trailer brake control wire back to the trailer plug on the rear bumper. I was able to poke it through the rubber grommet at the very back of the driver's side rear quarter panel, which comes out by the spare tire. The control unit just fit under the kick panel to the left of the driver's side dead pedal.
The brake controller has an adjustable dial which I mounted in the empty button area where the diff stitch is on earlier models. It fit nicely there, and there was plenty of room behind it (the dial has a pretty large control unit that goes behind it).
LC on the beach from the Pismo trip for fun.

Old hood off...
New hood on
Thanks Trevor, for helping with the swap and thanks to @3_puppies for the smoking deal on a matching color code hood!
