When we found out about all the equipment Mickey added to his CrewMax, we just had to have it for our Featured Tundras section. When he told us he’s put 18k miles on it in 8 months, we understand why he’s tricked it out. He spends a lot of time in this thing…
Check out the projector lamps. Cool photo in the light drizzle.
For starters, Mickey’s got a really nice light setup. For daily driving, he’s got Halo LED Projection Headlights by Cosmos Dynamics. The projection headlights focus almost all light on the road ahead, which is different than the OEM units which use a parabolic reflector (they tend to scatter the light more). The LEDs provide a little more light and a very sharp look. For more light, Mickey added Euro Dezigns HID fog lights and upgraded hi-lo beam bulbs.
Next up, see the rear LED light bar? That’s a great way to make sure everyone sees that you’re stopping, and it’s a relatively simple and inexpensive mod that will really set your truck apart.
Mickey’s a thorough guy - for instance, while most people don’t give their spare tire a thought, Mickey went out and bought a matching 18″ wheel and tire combo so that if he has a flat, he’s not stuck with the Tundra’s standard temporary spare. [Seriously, why would Toyota make the spare temporary on the Tundra? $50 more dollars would have made it useful.] Other exterior add-ons include an AVS bug shield, Trail FX stainless steel nerf bars and a Bully stainless steel step bar, and an Extang Tonneau cover with a Herculiner underneath.
There’s lots of mods inside the truck too. The TRD shifter looks great, as does the OEM back-up camera, and what truck would be complete without WeatherTech mats? The stereo situation is crucial when you’re driving 2k miles a month, so Mickey’s got a Samsung MP3 combined with an XM satellite radio.
Performance mods include a Hellwig rear anti-sway bar, an AFE cold air intake, and a Borla XS dual exhaust with 4″ exhaust tips (stainless steel of course).
Future plans include a tint job, LED interior lights, and a performance engine management tuner. If you’re on the road as much as Mickey, you can appreciate everything he’s done to his Tundra Crew. It’s a great combination of safety, functionality, comfort, and “cool”.
Think your truck is nice enough to be featured on TundraHeadquarters.com? Send us an email with a list of your mods and we’ll get back to you.
