    Can't wait to get rid of these rims. However, haven't really decided exactly what kind of rims I want on it yet. And thanks man, a lot more left to do still!

    One of these days I want to check out your headlights. I've been thinking I need a set of them. What bulb do they take, I assume an H1?

    Yep I know how that goes....it's an endless project...I'm real interested in the headlamp as well and how they turn out. I was looking at the LED Version as well. Lol only a few are still rocking the 2wd grille...

    Correct, an H1 bulb. I'd love to swing by and show them to you, I could use some help with some wiring on my marker lights, as I currently lack a soldering iron. I'll shoot you a text some time and see what's up.

    They're very high quality, definitely recommend them. Made of polished glass instead of the usual plastic and have a 5 year warranty. I'd say stick with HID; they don't require the cooling LEDs need and they have a much higher light output when compared to LEDs of the same wattage. And I love my 2wd grille! The Toyota script on the front is awesome I think.

    You should do a video on the output of your new headlights...

    I've been curious, but too cheap to take that leap, lol.

    Will do man, but mine are 35W so not too bright. I'll do that once I adjust them though, for sure.

    Got some sr5 buckets from the junkyard for 40 bucks, only had two small tears in the driver's side seat, so I sewed them up and colored the seats with duplicolor fabric and vinyl paint. They came out pretty good I think! Bolted them up, one didn't match up in the driver's side, so I'll need to drill a hole, but I think they look awesome! [​IMG]

    Before and after. I have no idea how to mount my 4 runner center console. Wishing I just bought an SR5 pickup one, since they have more space inside. I'll probably eventually fabricate something with it though. If anyone knows how to mount one of these let me know, I couldn't find anything online. [​IMG]

    You can pull the carpet forward and see where the bolt holes are for the center console. They might be covered with a piece of tape from factory.

    Thank you man! They're not very soft due to the fabric paint, but they're fine as long as you're not sitting in them naked. Lol

    yea i painted my original seat and yes it makes them very hard.....hence why i swapped over to leather seats.... As for the center console im in the same boat as you... there maybe some bolt holes there but its still going to require a bracket. When i mine off the 4runner the bracket was welded on. So we prolly are going to fab up some brackets for it.

    I can suggest, drill out the welds on the bracket to the floor pan, or make one, then bolt that to the floor with either nutsters or threaded rivets, hell even rivets. Then bolt the center console to that. Hope this gives u guys a good idea..

    Yeah I was thinking I would need to make some kind of bracket for it. That's okay, I was also thinking of figuring out some kind of way to utilize all of that unused space in the 4 runner center console, since they're supposed to be filled with a heater. Probably gonna cut it into two pieces, line it, male some separators, and put either a hinge on the back (easy route) or some kind of sliding mechanism on it. The slider would be really cool.
