Is it possible and how$$$ would it be to add options??
My fjc is not fully loaded, and there are some options that i would like to add like: the gauge pods [climate,elevation,time] and a tire cover. How much do you guy's think it would cost me to have these two item's installed by toyota or is it something that could be a DIY??
Re: Is it possible and how$$$ would it be to add options??
Tire cover is do it yourself and if you look in the for sale section there are usually some for sale cheaper than toyota. Gauge pods require changing the top of the dash and if you do a search you can find it. I think it was like over 1500 to swap out just for parts.

Not to bash the Toyota dealerships and their prices, but before adding anything to your FJ, I would first search this forum for both better deals from the supporting vendors on specific items, as well as, detailed instructions on DIY installations.
Post-purchase items like trailer hitches, spare tire covers, the $45 A-Trac addon (for factory locker equipped FJs), roof racks, rock rails, skid plates, etc., can all be easily installed at home (saving you hundred$ off of the dealership installations). Not to mention saving as much as 25 - 40% off of the dealership prices of actual Toyota products when you buy from a reputable aftermarket company.

If you don't find the tire cover here, don't forget to check Ebay. But more to the point why do you want to do that anyway. Trust me, it looks better without. Save your money for better speakers or a nav unit..
