What did you do to your TRX today?

Installed a Tazer yesterday. Are the amber drl's insanely bright for you guys as well? Don't get me wrong, I love it, just a lot brighter over the white (not surprising for turns)

Yeah, that's the one complaint I have about it - just too bright. I wish they could be dimmed just a little.

I'm pretty sure I saw in alphaobd, you can change output voltage to certain things. Like heated seats to change the intensity, is this something that could be adjusted on the drl's as well?

I’ve never used AlfaOBD, so I can’t answer that definitively. But I thought I saw someone else say that it wasn’t possible for the DRL’s.

I pulled them out, cut out the foam backing with an exacto knife (leaving the carpet) and put the lights back in so there was no gap around the light. I will say pulling out the lights is not easy, but makes for a cleaner install IMO.

The M14 size is for the pan.

Picked it up this morning, love the truck so far.
‘22 level 2 with 7k miles no sunroof(not really missing it). Full warranty up to 100k miles bumper to bumper.

On my way home from dinner, the “service active dampening system” warning came up. Didn’t notice anything different in the way it behaved but couldn’t really tell as all of it is new to me.
Been doing some reading about this issue and unfortunately it’s common, I’m not the only one.

What do you guys recommend?

Those are nice! Does the red activate darker during braking like auxiliary brake lights or just stay normal ? Is that what I should Google; Shift and Grins to find those? Thx

We have an option that has brake lights, tail lights and reverse lights.

I did the same thing today. Installed the reverse light kit from Shifts and Grins that has the red backlighting with the brake light and reverse white light. This is a really nicely done kit and service was great from Shifts and Grins.

Looks awesome.
