#25 of 659 Touch Up Paint / Paint Blob Remover by bryancos Jun 18, 2003 (12:29 pm)
Want a better match for your paint than the blob bottle from the dealer? Check out: http://www.paintscratch.com/   They sell touchup paint and clearcoat in custom made pens, bottles and even spray cans. Prices are very reasonable and they come highly recommended...   Also check out http://www.langka.com to eliminate paint blobs..

Hey Bryan, any idea how the blob stuff works? It's more than a toothpick in a can I take it?   Steve, Host
#27 of 659 Langka blob remover by bryancos Jun 19, 2003 (10:06 am)
Steve, Apparently the Langka blob remover is a specialized solvent that works only w/ touch up paints. It will not harm existing factory baked paint. You essentially apply it to a tightly woven fabric such as a tshirt, etc, and use a plastic straight edge similar to a credit card to keep the fabric taut while gently "scraping" away the blob w/ the solvent on the fabric... I've read reviews/articles on "other boards" which can't be posted here, and the results (and photos posted by others) showed some impressive results. Doing a search for "langka" on groups.google.com should suffice to help folks find the articles.
#28 of 659 2003 Rear Spoiler $138 plus shipping! by bryancos Jun 19, 2003 (10:11 am)
Found a great source for rear spoilers for the new 4Runner. Check the following URL:   http://www.autoearth.com/SpoilerToyota.asp   $100 extra if you want them to paint it to match...

#30 of 659 cargo mats by bryancos Jun 19, 2003 (10:23 am)
Macneil mats (www.mats.com) have models that go both on top and below the double-decker cargo system. Personally, I've found the double-decker shelf to be more of a pain than a help, so I will likely get the model that fits below and just leave the shelf lowered. My 4Runner came w/ the carpeted embroidered mat which looks nice, but isn't practical for hauling "dirty" items.   Mats4less.com is another source that sells products made by husky and nifty products for slightly less money than what Macniel sells for. I had a nifty mat in my Envoy and it sufficed.
#31 of 659 Day time running light by hpooh Jul 07, 2003 (7:22 pm)
Got my 2003 4Runner Sport V6 w/ the Day time running light. Whenever the head light is not on and the truck is moving. It lights up orange/amber. Take a closer look and find out that it's the bulb which has the color, the cover is clear. Just wondering if any one knows what size of bulb is it so that i could get some after market super white bulb for replacement.
#32 of 659 Daytime running lights by rokink Jul 08, 2003 (3:42 pm)
That amber bulb also serves as the turn signal light. Now, I have seen a Hyundai with what seems to be clear factory turn lights on the rear (and it annoyed me driving behind it).
#33 of 659 Langka Blob Remover by mtc5 Jul 11, 2003 (12:23 pm)
I read the directions on how to use the Langka solvent and found it is exactly what I had learned from a paintless dent removal technician. The only difference is that he used 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner Part No. 051135-08984. It costs about $10/ quart last time I bought some. It is available in auto paint shops that sell wholesale and generally you won't find it at places like Home Depot.
#34 of 659 PDR/Ding King Solvent vs. Langka by bryancos Jul 14, 2003 (12:42 pm)
Hmmm.. I wonder if the adhesive solvent that came w/ the DING KING kit I bought will cut the touch up paint too? I'll give it a try - may save me from having to hunt some down. BTW, the DING KING actually did work to remove several minor door dings in our 02 Malibu, so the $20 spent on the kit was well worth it.   The 3M stuff is relatively inexpensive and I found a cheap source online: http://www.goodspeedmotoring.com/subcat.php?get_category=2&ge- t_subcategory=Solvent%20Cleaners
