@@charliepike8482 I hv it too. Great mod. Wish the color matched a little better but I do like it a lot. I still need to adjust mine. Not a tight close.
Great mod - I ordered one and also posted this TH-cam link and the Esty link on the 4Runner forum. Good feedback and purchasing activity from the members. Thank you VG!
I appreciate you, it’s thanks to viewers like you Joey that the channel keeps moving forward. Thank you! You will enjoy it, I’ve had mine installed for a couple of weeks now. I love it. What a difference it makes.
Just got mine yesterday and installed thia morning, so far so good. Tried to use a drill which was an option as per the included instructions, the bit just kept slipping so I did it exactly how it was installed in the video with tape as a marker and a right angle bit driver use 1/4 inch nut driver and worked out well. Thanks for sharing this video, was exactly what I was looking for now if only matt can make a low profile set of drawers which don’t cost over $1000 like the other companies I’ve seen so far.
After putting 250K on my beloved '06 my husband found a '15 Trail with low miles - How could I resist!! But wow - the interior was a bit of a surprise and not as well finished as my '06. Thank you so much for this... I am ordering mine now!
Vikings Garage is a great source for valuable information. Thank your wife for me for pushing you into the TH-cam market. I ordered and installed this product. Yes, a bit spicey on pricing but this is American ingenuity, American made and those are two great reasons to spend the $$$. The fitment was as described in your video. Looks great. Appreciate the security.
Very cool - I'll definitely have to pick up one of these. Sold my 2006 Sport in Magnetic Grey with 220K miles for a new 2022 TRD ORP in Lunar Rock this year. - Love it.
This is awesome! Thanks for showing this, I've always wanted to cover that section, but not quite handy enough to fabricate myself. I just ordered myself one 👍🏼
Thats a NICE easy mod. It's completes the back, makes it look neater. I have already installed the canvasback brand side covers to protect the plastic wheelwells and sides when carrying wood or gear. First time I put wood in back I discovered it scratched easy and ordered them. If you dont run the canvasback's this mod cover of yours is the way to go for sure to keep all the misc junk in the cubby hidden. Love it.
In the process of doing this mod. Thank you for sharing it. It’s going to be awesome to have a little more storage in the rear. I posted a thank you to you on fb. But it couldn’t find you.
The color is a little off not quite as dark. I was wondering if I tried spraying with blk spray if it might look better. Ours I think needs adjusting, it doesn’t come off that easily.
Definitely on the expensive side, however that being said its one of those mods to a 5th Gen 4R that should have been stock and this guy went through a lot of prototyping to make this product available to the community. So, if you can spare the coin for this mod its a must have indeed! I'm impressed! 👍
For the little cover I used 5lb double sided tape and a plastic hook you can buy in packs of 6 to make a handle. Works awesome and now I can access the bottom of the panel without having to remove the upper section.
I made one of those about a year ago. It took some time but i really like it. Cost me about $30 for a small sheet of ABS plastic and a tube of ABS glue to glue on the "hooks" on the bottom. It did take some time to get the shape right.
To answer your question, "Are you done modding your 4Runner?" Let me check my wallet... Not this month. Although, I just ordered those covers... :)) Those are great mods! I really like what he did, especially relocating the dongle socket. Those covers are awesome. I don't tow as much as I do make those dangerous Costco runs. Because I have Bilstein 6112s in the front (at the lowest setting) my rear ended up being a bit too low, so I added 25 mm spacers in the back. That way, I avoid pissing off on-coming traffic at night when loaded up. Unloaded, the vehicle has a nice, subtle rake. I did think of adding air bags, but it didn't make sense for my application. Thanks for showing us this, Paul! Say, are you going to install a lift kit on that "little yellow car?"
Lol, thank you for the good laugh. I appreciate you! I hope you enjoy your covers. I’m still trying to get the little one to ride it without freaking out. Although raising it would be interesting, I would finally get all the views 🤣🤣🤣 Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
I like the cover, quality is good, and I finally got it installed. Since no written directions were included and no invoice. I had to research TH-cam to find the installation instructions. The invoice should include how to locate this TH-cam instruction. Besides all that, good product.
I saw the speaker and said “Storage compartment? What storage compartment? That’s what Molle panels and plastic bins are for. I want subwoofers, now.” 😂. Nice covers, though. It’s a problem solver.
I ended up using a flexible extension bit to get my drill up into the tight area to drill the screws in and that made it take about 30 seconds. VS the way the inventor is doing in the video.
Use note: love my covers, but after a while one of the tabs separated from the large one. I recommend drilling a small hole 8/32" is the size I did, and install a screw and nut as secondary attachment for the tabs.
Im late to the 4 runner game. bought a 23 off road and cant find a good spot for my noco battery jumper and a few other small tools. This should be perfect. cant wait!
I must say that after the first viewing of the Cargo Storage Cover I couldn't stop thinking about how cool/necessary this mod would be at some point. Should have been a factory option. A day later, viewed the video again and I've now ordered one. Hope it's here soon enough to install before I take my next cross country trip in October.
@@VikingsGarage Received and installed with the following caveat ... The strike plate is very difficult to locate. The accompanying template gives the centerline, but not the front to back offset. I am not using the release at the moment because the friction fit of the large panel seem to be adequate. Looks great, though!
Played with the strike a little bit and determined that the vertical down leg needs to be toward the interior of the storage area. Still a bit difficult to screw in, but doable (probably because I'm 74 and not as flexible as I once was). Now everything is how it needs to be. Should definitely be an OEM item from Toyota.
I took my side pocket out and have a custom 10 inch sub woofer box inside, and both my shift knobs for transmission and transfer case r custom wood handles made by a guy on Etsy
It was awesome meeting you guys today. Thank you for the patch. ? Where should I go for service on the 18 4Runner? I took my 08 FJ to Towne for years but ended on a bad note. I’ve had a Lexus for the past few years, waiting for the perfect 4Runner. So I haven’t had to pay for any service in awhile. Thanks again. -Meghan
It was very nice to meet you , Meghan. I appreciate your support! I’m located at Crystal Auto Mall Toyota, just ask for Paul Tech 146. I’ll take very good care of your Beautiful 4Runner. 😁 Enjoy the rest of your day!
Got a link to the shifter boot clip you got off etsy? Also what year Honda was the boot from out of curiosity? My shifter is really worn and I was already looking to change. That set up looks really nice!
Ok… there’s probably a cheaper way to do this but I completed this mod after I saw it. I bought the taco shift knob from the stealership because I assumed the many cheaper options on eBay are fake. I then bought a used shift boot assembly for a tacoma part number 35978-04010. This is the only way I found to get the clip that clips into the shift knob. Then I got a boot off of Amazon and cut the hole open a bit more to fit around the clip and used a zip tie to attach it to the clip. It looks amazing and functions great. Good luck
Screw it, just ordered. I've got a Snow Cap White '23 ORP. Love it. I added side steps to mine as well. Wife and kids like the truck but were having issues get in and out.
Most epic thumbnail of all time.
Thank you!! 😅

I bought this cover set from Matt’s sight and they are perfect. The look and fit is awesome! Thanks Viking Garage for this video! 🍻👍🏻

Instead of a latch, they could have also used magnets, one on each side of the panel.
That’s actually not a bad idea 👍🏻
Cool product, but $75 is a ridiculous price point
worse is the $16 for shipping
Any leads on a reasonably priced product of any kind?

Throw a nice trd logo on it and you can take my money
