What have YOU done?!? (Interior mods)

Hey everybody, I have been looking around and trying to think of either aesthetic and/or functional mods that I can do to my 4Runner's interior... so I thought what better place to look than here?

So here's the deal, please share any mods you've done to your interior and please post pics!

So, to start us off, I've replaced all my dash lighting w/ blue LEDs and my map/dome lights w/ white LEDs, and I put in some white gauge overlays.

Your interior looks really good, about the only interior mods I've done are a new head unit, sub/ amp, and cb radio

Both a yous have great looking interiors. Rearview, I like your wood trim. My 03 taco has the same light tan interior. I'd kill for a dark interior color like Fosheezy's.

Thanks man, I have a Sony GT710 deck. You can change it from blue to red, but I like the blue much better.

I just replaced the stock bulbs with LED bulbs, so in the instrument cluster there are three #194s and all the rest are #74 bulbs. I used 3-LED #74s in the climate control because it spreads the light out much better. For more info on the topic, check out this thread:

Hey fosheezy, I definitely dig the new vinyl... looks good! Question, what kind of setup do you have with the footwell lights? Seems like it would be fairly easy to do, but which bulbs did you use and what did you wire it to?

Hey looks great Atomic! I think a future mod will definitely be the footwell lights... although I think I'll probably go with white LEDs to match my dome and map lights. Did you wire them to come on when a door is open, or do you just turn them on and off?

i also have husky liners, a sleeping platform. next is to finish the console (havent had free time), finish the lower dash (where i had to move my ac controlls under the head unit) and then lots of lighting modifications.

ill try to snap some current pics later.

Thanks a lot! I wired them to a switch that I placed under the change drawer. I'll post a picture of it as soon as I can.


Edit:

Wow seanz0rz! I can't wait to see the finished product!
