Added a Pioneer CD-Player Today. Its the 3700... I chose this model because it was the cheapest head unit I could find that you could control your iPod from. Seems to be a fairly stout unit... no complaints thus far.

Got a pic of the 1999 Headlights.

Turns out they aren't Toyota parts, I got them off ebay. Quality is pretty low, the beam off my passenger side light is all screwed up. Another member of this board has the same problem, none of us have been able to figure out how to fix it.

Other than that they are still way brighter than the stock ones, and look a lot better as well

Took her out and stretched her legs today. Went to the renfrew off-road area around Shawnigan Lake. Trails there were a little tight for my liking, got quite a few scratches from branches. Almost ended up with custom pinstriping a few times... missed trees by less than an half-inch.

Total Damage was one skid plate and the right hand side front mudflap. Replacement cost is $90 for the mudflap and $200 for the skid. Currently looking for an aftermarket skid right now.

Other than that I had a blast, the 4Runner just walked over most obstacles. Only got stuck once, in the mud (last picture). The skid plate & mud flap were ripped off from being pulled backwards out of the mud.

Example of the tight trails

Hill at the start of the trail


Stuck in the mud (Doh!)
