Broken Tail-light and Yota Yard
Hey all,
Well I have some embarassing news. Last Friday me and my girlfriend went up to East Lake which is just south of Bend in OR, for all of you fellow webfoots (quack, quack) on the forum, I was backing out of my camp site in the dark and I backed right into a tree. :cry:
I have a 1st gen 4runner and I hit the corner of my bumper, drivers side, poped in the sheet metal right below the tail light and broke my tail light. Not to mention tweeked my bumper and the plastic side stiff behind the back wheel. Its a really good thing the tree leaned a way from me, but now it's time to make a new bumper, my stock bumper sucks!!
Anyway, I trying to get a hold of Yota Yard to get a new-to-me tail light. I checked out thier website and have heard good things about them but I can't get a hold of them. I emailed last saturday and called today. I was wondering if anyone knows if they are really busy or on vacation or something. I have been limiting my driving since my tail light is messed up, plus its a reason to work of some pounds riding my bike
Thanks,
Erich

Hahaha, I guess you could call the tree on the license plate a warning. I was watching out my rear view mirror and all of a sudden, slam!!
Oh well. I will check thouse other places out. I just thought it would be cool to get the parts from a cool place like the Yota Yard and pick it up at my door step.

backup lights are ESSENTIAL when dealing with mother nature and darkness....
My girl friend has a Jeep Grand Cherry (I know, I know...
) and that thing is even worse, the back windows are tinted and its bad to back up during the day!! I would have nailed the tree dead center if we had been driving hers.Like some one told me, its a good reason to get a custom bumper!
