Just bought my first 4runner, a 2000 sr5. Love videos like this showing off different mods that work well. I will be 3D printing a bunch of stuff from ABS/ASA.
one of my favorite mods for my 98 limited was removing the old center consul and replacing with a 99. Now I have normal cup holders and higher cushion for my elbow when driving.
It's so cool to see how much love and attention you've put into it, and it's obvious that you really care about the vehicle even if you abuse it haha. I know it takes a lot of work and dedication but worth it when it gets you to sick places.
Brother do the center console upgrade from a 99-02 it's better than that side one you have. With the clock, if it doesn't work take it apart and stretch the 4 springs just a bit and it works. The front seat bottoms are interchangeable so if you find a good passenger side it'll fit on the driver's. I have a 97 also and the cupholder model is worth it all day long.
Loving the 4Runner man! Looks killer! Makes me miss mine. I do have a Tacoma though 🤘🏼Just used your other video to do a rear diff fluid change today. Albeit a bit different due to having an 08 with a lsd. Thanks for the awesome vids!
Nice one Kelly! I’ve done the LED pocket lights and the cig lighter to usb swap and loved it! Was going to do the Ram mount through the clock location but that bracket is a much better idea. Thanks for sharing this really functional mods! Keep em coming! Question: what was the particular model of the RAM mount was it? May have to check the website again!
I only changed the 3 backlights on the dash to led as everything else was way too bright at night. Made the mistake of changing the burned out D for the gear indicator on the dash and had to take it apart the next day to replace with one of the old bulbs. Didn't like that bright green light on while I was driving. Also, a 2 din android stereo is probably one of the best interior upgrades to do right now. Make sure its wireless android auto/ carplay.
Those are some great mods. You might consider using Element fire extinguishers instead. They are lighter and provide considerably more output than regular units. Plus, you can stow them in the door pockets so that they are immediately accessible. By stowing a FE in the back, you would be wasting precious seconds that could make the difference between saving your vehicle or opting to grab a bag of marshmallows. Know that having an additional FE in the back is a good idea. But having your primary in the back is not a good idea. It takes too long to access.
I definitely considered those. Would actually prefer it a bit, but we ended up getting a cheap deal on some regular ones a while back. Those element ones are quite pricey as well.
@@Beacon_Offroad While the Element extinguisher itself is a little more expensive, you end up spending more on a regular unit because of the mounting bracket system. I'd rather spend a few extra bucks on the Element because it puts out more than double the amount of a regular unit and for a much longer period of time. It doesn't make sense to spend all that time and money on a rig only to cheap out on critical and essential safety equipment. At the very least, mount the extinguisher where you can get to it in the least time possible. Maybe one of those front seat floor mounts? At least you can grab it right away. Seconds matter. The other thing to consider is it's safe to breathe the output of the Element. You can't inhale what a regular FE puts out. Regardless, best of luck with your system.
thanks for the heads up about the Element fire extinguishers. That's a really good point about the accessibility and output, and I can see how having them in the door pockets would be super handy. I definitely want to make sure I'm prepared for any emergency situations, so I'll definitely look into getting one for the front too. And you're right, wasting precious seconds trying to access one in the back could be a big problem if things go south. I'll definitely reconsider where I'm keeping mine and prioritizing accessibility. cheers
I loved upgrading to LED lights in my runner, however the gauge cluster was way too bright for me at night since some lights in there can't be dimmed. I just went back to standard bulbs for that, but everything else LED is the way to go!
Just noticed this and thought i’d shout, when you remove the middle section of the middle dash, the leather around the 4wd is just put around the plastic. all you have to do is grab some of it and pull towards the middle and you won’t even need to u screw the 4wd stick

Who makes the bracket on top of the A/C-Heater control or is it DIY? Also, who makes the double cup holder you installed on the right side of the center console? Thanks Kelly!!

Dude you sound like Tony stark 🤣

Sweet. Stay in touch on Instagram. Shoot me a message if you got anything to show. Thanks
@KBAutotechAdventure Will do, I might try and design a couple things myself.
Only downside to led lights for the dash are the blinkers, they blind you at night, don’t upgrade blinkers if possible

You are welcome 👍
Super helpful thanks! My mom must gave me a 97 stock and the mods info is super helpful.
Fantastic video. Very direct with no frills. The video went straight to the point. Keep it up 👍🏻

Lots of great ideas. Great video.
I need to update the dash lights on my 94 Toyota Pickup. Nice to see the difference the LED bulbs make.
Do it. it's such a great upgrade.
Some nice quality of life mods!
Definitely.

I envy your awesome clean and organized rig dude lol I aspire to get mine in order soon
Thanks dude. Go for it, make it happen 🤘
What brand of LEDs did you use for the dash and for the interior lights?
Great video, great vehicle, how did you mount the cupholder?
Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching.

I find that interesting, I dont recall them not being dimable or too bright. I have driven my truck in a few months, its all apart currently.
Great video man! Setup looks great 👏🏻
Thanks, dude. My Tacoma is awesome, but I seriously love my 4runner.
I mounted my aux beam where that ash tray is by the shifter the 6 gang fits nicely there
Nice, really no wrong way to do it. Good spot.
Beautiful runner, what size tires she wearing, and how much lift?
Great content bruv keep it up
Thanks.
Great vids and info all around… where are you guys located? Near vancouver BC I hope.. in case we need works done on our 3grunner?
Hey thanks. Were in Surrey-Fleetwood.

Thanks for the tip.
I have put 2 XL drinks in that factory dash cup holder multiple times and that damn thing has somehow never failed me
Braver than me, haha.
Where did you get the panel you had in the back
Which dash cam do you have?
Where did you get all the LED bikes for the instrument panel an dome lights?
Who makes the molle panel on the center console by your leg?

This thing is sick

@@Beacon_Offroad Great! Thanks. Just ordered some more stuff for my 3rd gen👍🏼
Where did you get the mount you screwed into the dash? I tried buying one from Yotanation but pretty sure that is a fake company…
Man, you sound like stark
Where did you get all the mods?
Who makes the bracket on top of the A/C-Heater control or is it DIY? Also, who makes the double cup holder you installed on the right side of the center console?
Thanks Kelly!!

No links to the products 😅
Where did you get your panels for the windows and console? I replaced my stock cup holder but I can't see my temp cluster. I need all my lights replaced in it. Gonna get one of those off etsy
Console=Teq offroad, Molle panels=Outbound Nevada.
What brand is the dash bracket? I can't find one.
Teq Offroad
Hi kb.. can the cup holder be mounted on the other side ? . I'm right hand drive..
Unfortunately no.
Outbound Nevada doesn’t have a website anymore
@ethanwarren123 yeah, I believe they closed a while ago..
@@Beacon_Offroad sucks. I found some on amazon. They’re expensive but look good. I’ve got a 02 4Runner in the shop. Gonna build it similar to yours.
kel, can i ask a question have tech deck for tacoma. wanted to know what size bolts on that mount you have cause i need to do same thing thanks in advance.
Thos are regular 10mm bolts, 8x1.25 thread. But, honestly, I'd use smaller hardware. Its over kill, just didnt have anything smaller at the shop.
@@Beacon_Offroad Kelly thanks you love your channel so I still get ideas from you
I have a 2001 4runner sr5 with 61k on the clock never seen a winter clean frame..anyone have any idea what i can get for it?
Nice. Where are you located. Is it a 4wd?
@@Beacon_Offroad im in michigan ive owned it for 2 years yes it is 4wd with center diff lock
Lookings like im going shopping...
Haha, nice. Handy little mods.
@@Beacon_Offroad too bad interior molle panels are sold out
@offthegridadventure7688 ah that sucks, i think there's a few companies making them. Cant remember who else though, if i come across them ill let you know.
@@offthegridadventure7688 try RAGO fabrication that's where I got mine. Also victory fabrication and orange box also makes them
How many miles is on it now?
Just hit 300km. So 186 miles.
Missing the JDM broadway rearview mirror lol 😆
