    Sorry just saw this, yes these were a set just had to extend the harness on the passenger side but nothing major, loving how bright these are on the low profile brackets, added a OEM fit push on/off switch in blue illumination to match interior
    Excuse the cans it's garbage night :)

    Definitely hear the highs a little better and more clearly. Doesn’t make it sound like an entirely new stereo but not bad at all for the price and especially for the effort
    I’d love a diy swap for the doors next :)
    Hahha I left all sorts of stuff on my Tacoma :frustrated:

    How do you like the bug shield and does it hold well? It uses an adhesive?

    I have the AVS and it's super sturdy. Tight fit and it doesn't contact any paint. It screws on (4 or 6 screws I think). There are little square holes on the underside of the hood. The bug deflector comes with little locking plugs that you push into the square holes. They have a threaded hole in the center.

    So you insert the plugs and then hold the deflector in place and screw it in with the included screws. It's a good design. No worries there.

    To my eye, it beefs up the front end just a tad. The hood slopes down and the deflector gives it a little more height. Just a little appearance booster for the most part. I suppose it might deflect a bug or two. Certainly not a noticeable amount.

    Had an accident:(


    Also, best advantage I’ve noticed with the new speakers is the clarity of the Bluetooth/phone. Wasn’t nearly as crappy with the volume above the half way mark

    I read that the first time as "waiting for my life to get back in order". The FML sealed the deal.

    I’m seeing a night and day difference in the clarity of my phone conversations and that makes me really happy. The old speakers would get terrible above half way up on the volume .. being that my hearing sucks I really need that dial cranked up.. I was in this predicament of keep it low and hardly hear or turn it up and hardly tolerate the cracklings haha

    Indeed.. I’m still sad about it.. really miss my taco and the worst part was I had just paid her off.. didn’t even have 30k miles yet :pout:
