There aren't any covers, those are to prevent buildup of vapors & oil, should an issue arise.

I feel most of the issues have been remedied over time. Other than a deep sleep issue after 6 months, my 23 Hybrid hasn't missed a beat since swapping the EFC battery for an AGM. - I've had it for 2 1/2 years, it just runs. Haven't even been to the dealer since taking delivery, performing all...

Bit larger battery in the Hybrid, so running the a/c doesn't result in the ICE kicking in as much. Don't need a PHEV, most owners never plug them in anyway, and with the layout of our house, would be inconvenient. (Garage was turned into a room, and the electrical service is on the opposite...

Except many Toyota vehicles, including the Tacoma until the most recent generation have been designed for those under 6 feet in height. My wife and I looked at a RAV4, and my head was in the sunroof with the seat all the way down, and she hated the rear seats. The Scion models when they...

You need to remove it, and the installation instructions for the rail system even state to remove them. - I attempted to keep them, however the track does sit correctly, nor are the bolts long enough.

Don't think so, as having that oddly shaped carbon fiber at the top of the fender just doesn't appeal to me. Now the little side marker is something I'd have considered, although I know have illuminated 'vents' which turn from white/running to animated turns, with an illuminate flag in the center.

Nice! I'll swear the photo of the BCM fuse box isn't quite what I recall when using the fuse tap to supply my mirror dash-cam, but maybe because its rotated 90 degrees? I now need to crawl under in the next day or two and confirm, as it doesn't seem to actually shutdown power the mirror...

Apparently the changes made to the eCVT for 2025, which in addition to adding the ability of AWD, also increases the amount of torque or power which can be generated without invoking the ICE. The tradeoff is the 2025 eCVT does exhibit a squeal or sort of grinding noise when transitioning...

Started at the mirror, up behind the ceiling liner, tucked behind the A, B, and C pillar moldings, until I got to the rear window. - C pillar has lots of space to tuck in the extra wiring, and there will be several feet of wire to tuck in there. Tucked into the headliner is the easiest way...

They're somewhat soft TPU like material. If you push down on it, it will flex & bend. Same material as the lower door protectors in my profile picture.

Here's a look nearly level from behind, you can actually see the roof above all but a couple of those bumps. - Just installed mine earlier this afternoon, along with the true DOT Approved LED 3rd Brake Light. It does give a nice 'Rough & Tumble' look to the truck. For those asking about the...

Hopefully the BAGM-T4 is a higher quality battery, the original EFC (Enhance Flooded Cell) is junk. Even out of the vehicle mine didn't hold a charge properly. - Reminds me to get my brother to test & swap it, especially if he can replace it with the new battery. I currently have a H5-AGM...

The Santa Cruz has a more carlike feel, with the seats being more car-like, sitting lower with legs extended than the Maverick. The side effect, between that front seating and shorter overall length is the rear seat has less leg room. I looked at one at the Philly Auto Show, and with the...

The factory axles have difficulty handling any kind of lift. - And I've hard of owners being declined warranty coverage due to having lifted their trucks. That said, there is now an updated front axle which may remedy their issues. Unfortunately I don't believe the Tremor axles will fit the...

A possibly better way, as it provides additional notification of stops & turns, is to buy an inexpensive tailgate light bar, and attach it to the bike carrier. When installed, plug it into the trailer wiring, which will automatically turn off the rear parking assist. Some drivers need as much...

First month in, I added the all-weather liners front & back, along with a bug deflector to protect the leading edge of the hood & help prevent windshield chips. Not sure my Tonneau arrived within the first month, however it was pretty quick.

I'd be VERY surprised if there's wiring, or even an input on the head-unit for a front camera for 22-24 model year Mavericks. The 25 Lariat has the surround view available, which would give you that functionality, however even the Sync3 equipped Tremor in 23/24 don't have one as an option...

I'd go Space White, appears to have a nice metallic sheen to it. - Metallic pains may be a pain in the you know what to color match during repair, or used to, but they look awesome up close.

Barely visible, if at all: They install on the indented gap, and it's the side profile which mates, and presses agasinst the inside edge of the front door. This a photo taken on Sunday, after I finished cleaning her up, but before applying the tire dressing. They've been installed for a...

Or for $39.99 you can buy the indoor/outdoor foot wiping carpet at HomeDepot, which is nice and thick. I ultimately used some double sided vinyl (removable) double sided tape, which has held it lace for 2 years now on the tailgate. (Bed just lays in place, although I did use carpet tape to...
