Awesome, can't wait to see pics bro... btw another good upgrade is HID's w/ projectors....it's not performance but holy crap you'll love them especially since the stock bulbs suck. It's a little expensive but well worth every single penny!

Just to let you know the 2012 b-pillar black tape is the same... easy as pie to remove... I did mine last week. (For the 2012, remove the screw that holds the black strip on, it's on the inside of the door, be careful with the back one, it can fall down inside) also a plastic putty knife is good to have to hold back the weather stipping/seals so you get all the black tape off) I did mine in about 5-10 minutes, and it left no residue or anything. It was about 40degs out, so I think doing it in colder weather helps. I personally think it looks much better without the black tape... [ don't mind my dirty truck... the highway crew thought it was going to snow, so they dumped tons and tons of salt on the roads ]

TR4x4,
I got the same truck that you have 09 TRX4, I just bought the Aero Turbine Muffler on Friday last week. I'm not planning on replacing anything but the muffler for right now. I will post some videos of before and after for you when I get it put on later this week. And thanks for the idea for the headlights Mikeyyy816 I hate how little light the stock ones throw off.

cheap exhaust is just have the big azz muffler removed and put in straight pipe. i have a laramie and did that, you still have those 2 on each pipe right behind the bumper and cat and what not so it is pretty loud and if i floor it you can hear it from a few blocks away but when the foot aint in it, you would never wake the neighbours. And there is no rap to it which is exactly what i want for a exhaust note.

Does changing the muffler or straight piping make any errors show up on ur dash? Also I hate the fold down middle seat and want a console, is there a console I can just bolt in and take my seat out?
