Door trim panels done. These are the top or second hardest part of a restoration to me. Too many old brittle plastic parts and too tight of a fit overall.

Glad they are done!

Charles4x4, do you know the type of leds you got for the map lights?

Stayed up late last night and everything is done except the Radio and rear sub speaker. It took much longer than expected - you don’t want to kno what time I went to sleep but it was time to finish this project!

Yes, they fit amazingly well. I was surprised!

And the final touch! New 4Runner Side Emblems and a new OEM Skid Plate (it didn’t have one when I bought it).

Ooh and with a little push to get it started, the power antenna with new mast worked great! I’ve got 2 switches with no light that I need to figure out and wiring the radio and this one is done.

Completely forgot about the map lights. I’ll check them out and see what bulb fits.

One Front tire done and it “fits”. About 1/8” clearance between tire and A-Arm (the aggressive tread on the sidewall of the KO2 is closest). Should be good to go, but we’ll know fully when all 4 are on.
