grill lights?

any one have lights hidden in their grill like the 2nd gen guys do?

 

bump...I'm interested in this too, as I just don't like having aux lights mounted past or on the bumper. I can't figure a good solid mounting solution, not to mention cooling concerns.

 

Yes people do, they use a grillcraft to open the grill up, otherwise there isn't much room behind there. I've seen many people with it, just don't remember names

 

I would be very interested to learn how to install lights behind my grill as well. Any guidance/input would be much appreciated

 

Well like he said you need a grillecraft grille to have enough space to put lights. After that you need a mounting bracket to mount the lights. You can buy them from a guy off here...heres a link to them...http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/1st-gen-tacoma-marketplace/158575-bracket-hellas-behind-grille.html

And from there on its just basic wiring and installing the relay and switch...i just ordered a grillecraft and plan on doing this soon...hope this helped

 

Thanks so much for the help!

 

No problem! Hope that's what you were looking for

 

Had them on my last truck, hella 500ff converted to 35 watt 6k HID behind grillcraft grill. Loved the setup, heres the build page... http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/1st-gen-builds/182377-tacoman355-build.html

 

Btw i mounted mine to the radiator support using 90 degree angled aluminum and mounting the lights upside down to that. hope that helps!
