In this video, I show my favorite exterior mods in 2023 that gave my truck a factory OEM look. All of the items are super easy to install and require no special tools. For in depth install videos, click the videos in the upper right hand corner of the video.

Which was your favorite? 🤔
The grill replacement looks like a pig's nose.
@@user-ij6ng5bi8j I'm a fan of it over the typical knock off heritage grill
Very nice and tasteful mods. I have the same trd off-road in lunar rock. This video gave me some excellent ideas!
Nice! Thanks for watching. I'll have the interior, hidden and non-Tacoma upgrade videos here soon!
I have a 2023 Lunar Rock Tacoma with the smoked mirror turn signals and love them. Easy install and awesome look overall. I swapped my grille today with a KOK honeycomb grille, got 4 smoked white raptor lights with it as well. I also am going with red accents on mine next I'm saving for a lift kit and tires. Slapping DX4 Nitro wheels on it in the frosted bronze with the black simulated bead lock
Nice upgrades! Yeah, I’m in the same boat - saving for wheels and tires ATM. Not sure if I’ll do a lift…..likely not. I’ll need to check out the grill
The grill 🔥! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Now I’m getting one!
I really like the grill. It’s just different and futuristic toward the 2024…..and I haven’t seen another truck with it at least in my area! 😁👍
Just bought a 2019 Toyota Tacoma trd sport yesterday. Can’t wait to customize it to my taste
Nice! That's the main reason I bought a Tacoma was for the aftermarket support and parts. No two Tacomas look the same either!
Loving your content! keep it up. Time to viper cut that B!
Thanks buddy! Yeah, I've been looking at that (viper cut) but I have a method to my madness ATM. Next major mod will be wheels/tires/small lift. Then I already have the front bumper, sliders picked out. Viper might come after
Tufff🔥
Thanks for stopping by!
2:00 I felt that one 😅
😁
#1 because I already own a Few👍✅👌 what’s that Allen key set you use to tighten down your tie downs? Nice video!
I mountain bike….so they’re the Pro Tools from Park: www.parktool.com/en-us/product/sliding-t-handle-hex-wrench-set-thh-1?category=Hex+%26+Torx®+Compatible+Tools
Those look like some nice mods. Am looking to purchase either a TRD Sport or the off road model in a couple of weeks.
Nice! Congrats on the new truck.
Nice truck man! I have the same in Cement. Just curious, why did you change from the Form Lighting tail lights to the AlphaRex?
I had a defective set and it took 30 days just iron out the issues with Form. Once they agreed to exchange them, they were on back order for 2 months. I switched back to the stock set and found the Alpharex. Ended up selling the Form there after.
I see, that's a shame. I have the Form tail lights and I love them. They've been on the truck for 2 weeks now and no issues thus far, fingers crossed. Were yours defective upon arrival or did it happen over time? What was the issue? I was looking at the AlphaRex but ultimately decided on the Form as I like the look better.@@tacomanetwork
@@jjlevitt95 the forms started hyperflashing on one side. I actually like the look of the forms better as well.
This is probably a dumb question, but when I was on the site linked for the grill, the heritage logo isn’t actually in any of the pictures. Is it included? I wouldn’t want to spend the money and then have to go buy the rest of it somewhere else. Thanks for the video!
Yes, it's included. You'll find that many larger sites won't show any images of the Toyota (spelled out logo) or the giant "T". The reason is because Toyota keeps trying to sue these companies for copyright infringement. It's pretty crazy. My good friend owns TVD Vinyl and he's gotten multiple threats of lawsuits. He only shows partial images now throughout his site.
I came to ask the same thing, LOL! I am definitely picking this grill up as well.
Are your side view mirror sequential lights black?
Yes, they're aftermarket, smoked sequential lights. I featured them in this video: th-cam.com/video/Joa64ZMixEU/w-d-xo.html
Are the AlphaRex tail light bulbs changeable? Once it goes bad
Wow, great question - I'm not sure...just looked through their website and saw nothing.
can you recommend any overland mods?
But of course! Stay tuned for a Top 5 Overland access......
How do you have 375 miles till empty?
That was right when I left the dealer with 9 miles on the odometer and a full tank. I usually get 269-289 now at least on the calculator but actually about 300-310 on 50/50 mixed driving.
Gotta disagree with you on the grill with raptor lights.
Raptor lights belong on a Raptor.
The grill is meh, but nothing beats the OEM heritage grill
yeah, everyone has personal preferences. I meant about a "proper set of raptor light" that they're just 3 lights and not 4 like some vendors sell. On vehicles wider than 80" (like the Raptor) they need two side marker and three center marker lights both on the front and the back. As for the grill in total, I like that it's different and not just another SR5 with a Pro grill.....
I really wanted Tacoma, but I really don’t like this LED light on the grill. You literally blind everyone in front of driving you if you have it on.
The hidden light bar is for off road use only - and yes, it's blinding if used on the road. The Tacoma isn't the only truck it will fit on...so not sure why you'd exclude the most reliable truck on an aftermarket accessory.
I mean no disrespect, but on the "Toyota" grill, that I am sure you spent some serious money on, are you recieving any royalties for this, or are you only paying them to advertise for them for nothing? Makes no sense to me to advertise a product and pay to so so, instead of them paying you to promote their product! Who is losing money here? You, or them??
Honest reviews of products are hard to come by these days. I reviewed products in the RC (Radio Controlled) space for over 10 years and the waters do get muddied. Typically, vendors send over product for review. The exchange is product for video to get their product in front of your audience. On the RC side I had over 100K subscribers globally, so the amount of product coming in was daunting. For the Tacoma Network, I'm building the platform still. With that all being said, YotaVerse did send over the grill to be reviewed. I did disclose to them (like anyone I review products for) that no matter what, I will give my opinion on the product. I will usually contact the vendor if things go south and give theme the option if the video goes up or not. Since I was fairly new to Yotaverse, I only opted for a product for video deal......which I should have built in a commission, since my original Yotaverse video has sent over 2,700 pre-qualified customers to their website as of this comment. Even if only 5% bought from that 2,700 on a $300 grill, that's over $40K in sales from my video. To date, the grill is my favorite upgrade on my truck. It makes it unique.
