    My 88 Camry wagon came with 3.

    Two regular keys and a "valet" key that would not open the glove box.

    I have an Amazon h@cked Techstream to program my Toyota keys and remotes.

    Speaking of tags, I've trimmed this Agency6 flip up mount to reduce stickout and added a backing plate, but I'm still not crazy about it. Any ideas to make it look a little less tacked on? Thinking of mounting the plate from the bottom, or flat on the bumper.

    I used my zip code and closest dealer to me and the price was 10% off- about $220. I used 92108 which is about 15 miles south of me and picked Toyota of El Cajon and the price was $201.xx

    You might have to try a couple different zip codes and dealers in your area.

    There is a lady who owns a nail salon next to my Barber. She has the most pristine 100 series in white. Every time I get a haircut I park next to it and think to myself, “if you only knew what she could do.” Maybe she takes the LC out on the weekends and says to herself while wheeling, “We know, we know.”

    Big Red got a Brazilian Butt Lift!
    Custom fab tube rear bumper - 1.75” OD .120 wall DOM.
    • Receiver Hitch relocation.
    • 7” height increase on exit.
    • Center of receiver is 24” from the ground. (Before was 17”)
    • 7 welded attachment points with frame.
    • Weight gain only about 25 lbs.
    BEFORE and AFTER.

    When wheeling the spare will be ratchet strapped to the floor. Exhaust is getting rerouted to side for high clearance.

    Can you provide a link? Thanks!

    Started working on making a mounting plate today, first time doing something like this. I know the slits are sort of wonky but I don't own a lathe or mill. Once its all ready I will do a hammer paint job on it. The big box store only had diamond plate so that's what I will be using for this project. I will be mounting this in the space where some people mount the extra battery.

    OEM+ Trail Edition rims w/ Toyo AT3 in stock size / OEM Black Lug nuts OEM Heritage Grill OEM Black Valences (f + r) Westcott Sliders/Modular Roof Rack Roam 95L case DIY sleeping platform
    Picked them up today ... a little dusty but otherwise mint condition. $400 with the tpms and the lugnuts. Can anyone who has these let me know if the center caps are the same as the ones on the silver wheels or if they actually had different ones. I believe they are the same (shape is obviously but color is what I'm wondering) but would be nice to verify.
