I should have gone OR for the aux switches! I have to take extra steps to wire lights into the dummy switches but it’s too late now I already have the vehicle gotta make the best of it!

It's extremely easy

All that extra money for a rear locker and crawl control isn't worth it dude, you did the right thing ! SR5 and build or PRO and drive is my personal opinion (and we've all got a lot of those lol)

Part of the fun is building things. With 3k spend it will look as good as a Pro to me

Don't sweat the aux
Agreed, just pony up and buy the better trim rather than trying to look upscale.
I'm dealing with that right now man. Have done so much to my truck and keep reasoning "you can make it how you want it" but at the end of the day, it's not a Pro and is never going to be a pro.
Plus my cost breakdown:
$37,800 - Truck
$3,500ish - tax/reg
$1,000 - suspension labor I didn't do
$500 - bilsteins
$ 1900 said and done wheels/ties
$300 - skid
$250 - grille
$500 - lightbar
$200 - seat covers
$420 - sub and wiring
$120 - mud flaps
$200 - tow hooks

So I'm at $46,690 so far

If I do the 4 runner lights, pedal monster, cai, fender covers +$2600 ish.

So almost $50K SR5. And that's all stuff I would have done on an OR minus maybe the sub and lightbar which would've put it at the same price as a brand new '26 pro
