• Locating the Lock and Unlock Wires on a 2013 Toyota Tacoma Access Cab
• According to Pop and Lock, the power lock and unlock wires for your 2013 Toyota Tacoma Access Cab should be located in the same area as the Double Cab models. You will want to look for a blue/black wire (lock) and a blue/red wire (unlock) behind the driver side kick panel. You will see many wires behind the kick panel, so locating these wires can be tricky. I strongly recommend using a circuit tester like our Quickee Tester, # 3808, to test the wires before you cut or splice into the wires.

• Is the Thule No Sway Cage Bike Stabilizer TH955 Necessary for a Thule Parkway Bike Rack

I know on my Thule bike rack, before I strap the anti-sway cage to the bikes they do move quite a bit. But after strapping the bikes to them, the bikes hardly move at all.

• How Many Locking Lug Nuts are Recommended Per Trailer Wheel
• One locking lug nut per wheel would be the most efficient way to do it. These are sold in pairs because each axle has two wheels (one per wheel). If a thief was willing to dedicate the time to defeat one locking lugnut, a second one would not make a big enough difference to convince them to stop, so it would be a bit of waste to have 2 per wheel.
