    2004 tacoma bug deflector

    Not sure how well it deflects the bugs, but I definitely think it cut down on the paint chips from highway driving on the hood. My wife has a 99' Rav4 without a bugshield and her hood (especially the front) is all chipped.

    2004 tacoma bug deflector

    I put a AV bug deflector II on my 03' SR5. Love the way it looks. I like it better than the EGR bug shield I had originally but returned.

    Tailgate lock

    Tailgate lock

    Sorry If I'm not too clear. From what I have read on TW, there may be 2 types of tailgate hinges. Most people (I think) have the tailgate that can be lifted out of its slot on the passenger side hinge, while few have a bolted on hinge. The former will accept the hose clap mod while the later...

    Tailgate lock

    My first taco

    I paid $13.750 for it. I think it was a fair price, but then I had to have it shipped from Florida so now I'm in well over $14.000. I have been looking for a clean Taco for the last couple years so when I found it, I had to have it. how about you?

    New tacoma owner

    Hello all. Just picked up an 03 Taco SR5 today and definitely wanted to join this forum. Seems like the knowledge here will be extremely valuable. Any advise on what to go through and check on a 10 year old taco with 60k on the odometer? Thank you all in advance.:thumbsup:
