Damn! It’s a super cool idea……but……it’s kinda fugly from the ass end. Especially on the Tacoma - jellybean-ish. I’d really have to see it on the RR.
Never had clear headlights yellow or crap out appearance wise just by keeping them waxed & buffed after every wash. Just a good spray detailer wax & soft cloth. Fast & simple. Water beads off, they stay cleaner longer, and never discolor.
Just a month & 1/2 ago I hooked up the SGS Kicker Keyloc DSP to feed a signal to a RF Punch 300.1 feeding a Hertz 10”. The Keyloc STILL needs a dedicated power source with an in-line 2 amp fuse (it’s in the Kicker literature instructions) and a remote turn on signal wire. It also needs a...
Ha thanks! Definitely didn’t know what I was doing, but after nearly 27 years in the Plumbers Union in commercial construction I’ve gotten myself mechanically savvy. And I’ve always figured if it can be put together by man than it’s something I should be able to take apart and get back together...

Here in the PNW we get a lot of rain and I ran the same 2 layer setup in my previous F-150 for roughly 4 years. I never had an issue with the deadener becoming water logged and my truck parks outside. The main step is to keep the deadener off the bottom 1 1/2” of the door skin which also allows...
Now with a bunch of the leftover deadener you’ve got me thinking why not toss a couple sheets into the tailgate. Wouldn’t hurt and if it changes it into more a thud when closing then it’ll be worth the effort.
I literally just did this exact same mod last weekend. The Focal Inside speaker upgrade and 2 layers of Siless deadener to all 4 doors. 1 layer of the foil backed mastic and then a layer of the hybrid 3in1. And YES I rattle a knuckle down the door as I walk by now as well. Wife says I’m an...
LITERALLY just did my roof yesterday! Did all 4 doors last weekend. Did the 2 layer method in the doors with a layer of 120mm and then a layer of hybrid 3in1.
After all the time & fiddling to get the headliner dropped I went heavy and did 3 layers and added a second layer of the hybrid. Then...
How do you know who we are!!!
DM & The Boys just be puttin’ some D’s in some LW’s……..leg wounds and they WILL violate your Prius AGAIN!
Oh we found a lot of stuff!
Yeah I was made fully aware of just how tinny the roof was after going through a pressure washer car wash. Sounded like the jets were coming through the roof. That’s why I’m really contemplating tackling the headliner and doing the 2 layer deadener to the roof. I can only imagine it’s well worth...
Similar to you I log low yearly miles due to being in construction with a company truck.
Not saying this is what to do this is just what I’ve done for decades. I do a twice a year service - spring & fall about 6 months apart irregardless of mileage. Done & forget about it and it’s cheap & easy...
Finally sound deadened all the doors and added the Ford Focal IS Inside 6x9’s (did the tweeters weeks ago) to the front doors along with open backed dust & water shields. Did the same thing to the back door speakers but opted to just keep the factory B&O’s since the fronts are the true...
Not to hi-jack but I did Borla’s cat back system on my RR in my driveway with the truck up on ramps on a Saturday afternoon. Basic hand tools and didn’t even have to remove the spare tire. Most reputable exhaust kits utilize factory hangers and really are a cake walk if you follow the...
I personally love the center channel and run the system in surround sound mode. Listen to a lot of metal & industrial so I’m a fan of it being a bit “bright”. I noticed a big difference after doing the cc. Like the last post I also did the Infinity 2-way and find it to be a perfect balance. I...
Seems like a good pool of like minded people. I’ve gotten some great ideas, intel, & insight from other members. And also passed along info or experiences that have/haven’t worked for me in my Ranger Raptor sand box. Doesn’t mean anybody has to listen, but figure why not keep passing good &...
AMSOIL now but have good luck in the past with Pennzoil Platinum. The Pennzoil I used to have to run out and get. The AMSOIL directs ships to me from AMSOIL. That alone is worth the extra couple bucks. And I’ve always got a case of filters on the shelf.
Nice! And I take it, it just plugs into the OBD2 port?…..yeah dumb question. Cause that’s the only plug it comes with, HA!
And it stays put? Doesn’t rattle around or make annoying resonance sounds? Little rattles & creeks drive me nuts.
