What have you done to your 100 Series this week? (67 Viewers)

Been home for the weekend, visiting family for Easter Sunday, and gave my 100 a well-deserved spa treatment. Plus bringing another mattress back to my apartment.

I'm doing this very mod today - what did you run your power source from?

I just this did this mod today too for ambient light in the cockpit. Installed a soft blue LED and I just tapped off of the map lights which makes it hot all of the time -- until I lock the doors, then the relay kills the power to the map lights.

When I unlock the car, it comes on.

Nice and clean and no extra switches!

It must be springtime or something! Everyone is out making stuff happen.

Put the finishing touches on the rear cargo area to get ready for our spring break camping trip. The area to the right will be for the dog, the divider holds the camp table and 5 gallon front runner water jug.

I also mounted the fire extinguisher, probably not the best location due to difficulty of access but couldn't find a better spot in the cab that wouldn't be intrusive.

Sweet set-up man!

Psych! New shoes. 295/70R18's Toyo At2 Extreme on Tundra Steelies.... thanks to a hot tip from @Bomar

Had to remove the mud flaps I made, and there is some light scuffing on the frame, but otherwise they're a good fit. Here is some driveway simulated flex where I checked for rubbing and close-ups. Old BFG 275/70R18's are on the right.

I'm doing something a bit different... I'm tying into the mid row switch so the map lights will turn on based on the mid row switch position (on, on with doors or off). The individual switches to the map lights will still activate them including when the mid row switch is set to off.

I've already got my tactical lighting setup http://tlcfaq.com/main/2012/06/scangaugeii-install-plus-tactical-ledlight-mod/ and they power down with the map lights on door lock.

I had my neighbor machine out some switch holes in the center console.

We were able to get four between the transfer case cutout and the AHC controls. For now I am going to use these for the compressor, f&r locker switches and a fridge outlet cutoff switch. Once I finish converting to the 80 series locker dial, I will repurpose the two locker switches for light switches and leave the compressor and fridge switches down on the console. I am using the factory blanks to the left of the steering wheel for two OEM light switches controlling Rigid Dually D2 driving lights and spot lights.

Continuing on my theme of wiring the ambient lights in the overhead, I finished installing USB ports from BlueSea in the front console and added a new one to the rear console for the passengers. All wired from the fuse lock installed in the bottom of the console and tied to the aux battery.

Next big job is running wire to the rear and new fuse box there for fridge, more aux ports and outside rear lights.

Careful, that one panel is over $2k to replace. I cut into mines as well.

Holy overpriced Lexus parts Batman. That is crazy! Wow.

It turned out awesome. Much much better than I could have done with a Dremel.

Yikes the land cruiser (no wood) is 175 to replace... with cup holders

 

[KlausVanWinkle]

Drilled and tapped all the new holes for a second swing out. Painted and installed second swing out (Anyone want a rotopax or Vector Exo Rack?)

Finally finished and installed the trim pieces for my custom drawers.

^^ Nicely done Klaus. You are ready for Moab!

Finally got rid of some gold and chrome. I think I'm getting good at the dippin' so next is faded side moldings and rear emblems.

With what little you can see her through the reflection, she looks a bit perturbed.

Haha she was running late this morning, and me taking a pic for the forum wasn't on her list of things to do. But hey, at least I put the grill back on last night for her to go to work.

Working on a simple little solution to the pinging effect on my rear shock shafts...different than your's since I'm not OEM mounts...maybe photo material by week end.

You guys running exposed shaft shocks (mostly rears) got them covered right?! You've been warned; again!

What do you recommend to cover exposed Radflo 2.5 shafts?
