I take my 24 Taco off road a couple times a month but have been being careful on the trails with the stock Predator steps since they don't really protect the body and the steps break super easy. To fix this I got the Cali Raised 0 degree step edition sliders that mount to the frame instead of the body like the Predator steps and I love them so far. The step edition makes accessing the roof and getting in and out easier especially for my vertically challenged girlfriend but they also stick out enough they'll protect the truck from door dings which is a huge plus living in a small mountain town where it seems socially acceptable to slam your door into someone else's vehicle. Recently took them on the trail too and couldn't find anything to slam them on as the side clearance is now about 4-5 inches taller without the dumb steps hanging down. They're beef as though so I'm not worried when I do have to actually use them. Really cool the new tacoma comes with the threaded mounting holes already in the frame. Love how easy Toyota is making modification on this thing. I just lined everything up and the sliders bolted right on. After having them I don't think I could go back. The ease of mind having thick steel tubing between the rocks and my expensive truck and the ease of access to the cab and roof is very nice. I have a full install video on my youtube if you want to check it out too. Do any of you guys have these? Do yo like them?

Hey everyone. I just finished installing the cali raised led ditch light brackets with some of their pod lights and it looks sweet. I ran the cable and such through the firewall but i have never taken apart a dash before and i was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to remove the dash panel that houses the button so i can wire in the new one? Haven't been able to find any videos yet of people showing how they removed it, Cali Raised just shows it removed but not how they removed it and i don't want to damage anything when removing it so i want to do it right. Thanks!
