Did you have issues with the measurements on the guide? When I did mine the holes were off. One of their measurements had a fraction of 17/16”
Nope they have updated instructions on their site.

Looks great.
Where did you get those Velcro attachments for the first aid kit?
Yes! This is exactly what I want to do for mine. Can you share part numbers/source?
I believe those are from onetigris but found on amazon
Thank you. I just got a set of Method 703’s at 35 mm offset. Debating on 285/70/17 or 285/75/17.
Just amazon velcro molle patch
What power source did you connect the lights to?As I mentioned in earlier post, here they are. Dual (amber / white ) LED light. With on-off-on switch, I can either have white or amber per situations.
Materials cost me $16 + some wiring laying around in my tool box
Tested to ensure all works

Rear battery. Just drop down the wires from the plate, through bottle Jack compartment and rear battery is right there
Someone taps the wires to other power sources, but I don’t want that.
On my old 4runner, I didn't really have an overall lighting plan and just added stuff as needed. It became a really bad mess of wires....
This time, going to start it off right. Cali Raised switch panel, good price and fits just right

I had this done and then went out of town for week. So, the verdict is is a noticeable improvement.
The outside noise is noticeably less, especially coming from the floor pan. You still get pillar noise at highway speed (especially into the winter winds lately), but it is a much quieter vehicle under 45-50mp.
On the speaker front, I had to tinker with the settings for a few days. I wasn't impressed at first with the vocals, and the highs were really high (cymbals and such). Not sure if there was a slight break-in on the speakers, or whether I just had to adjust. The end result was putting the audio settings on surround, adjusting the treble/bass a little and then centering the speakers on the X (centered) instead of having them forward of the front headrest (which they were prior). I was getting too much from the windshield, and once I balanced that a bit, it's great. It helps to source some better audio tracks while doing this.
I do think a small amp would make things nicer. I still listen to music at around 25-35 (sound level). With the deadening, it is much clearer now. Bass is as much as you want. A bit of extra punch wouldn't hurt.
The Focals are great. It looks like the front left one is slightly larger than the hole though. There's a little swell on the grate (probably pushing it up a bit). I can only notice it because someone mentioned it before. I don't need a sub replacement with these speakers. No rattles, no distortion and plenty of highs and lows.
The JBLs are pretty trash, even in an FE. Pretty much plastic, but they didn't sound horrible.
is the light bar for off road use only?
Legally yes, but I use it wherever I need light… especially at night in the rain, makes a huge difference, I treat it like high beams tho so I don’t blind anybody
Today I finished installing new center caps on my wheels. These new ones with terrain contours add 15 Overlanding™ points per wheel, and if you happen to be in the location that the terrain contours are modeled after, they add 300 Navigation Points.
It’s honestly amazing I’ve been able to drive this long without them.
Before (if your eyes can handle it):
After (but I cannot be blamed for the stirring in your loins):
just realized they’re not aligned with the bolts.
