    Better hurry up and order if you are going to buy a set. They not going to make them once they run out there is a group buy till the end of the month. Look it up on the group thread. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/flyzeye-designs-group-buy-april-15th.370690/

    Yup...The glove box and console have a smaller dual LED light setup that is magnetically activated. Pretty slick and worth it...!

    Rick, what brackets did you use to mount your light bar to the rack?
    Any wind noise with the double row LEDs?

    I used the Rigid Brackets that came with the lightbar. Works perfect with the Frontrunner Rack. No Wind noise! The rack has a wind deflector that works prefectly

    Right on! Thanks for clarifying that up. I have been reading mixed reports; primarily from owners of different model vehicles. It's nice to hear from a Tacoma owner.

    So rad, Rick! I picked up my Front Runner rack today. I'm excited to start configuring it.
    I noticed your 40" LED bad is mounted to the bracket with anti theft bolts; what kind of bolts did you use to mount the bracket to the rack?
    Also, been reading a lot of comments about decreased MPG by as much as 2 MPGs with the rack. Has yours affected your gas mileage?

    Honestly, decreased gas mileage is affected by everything you do when you mod. It's negligible at most. I don't really worry or dwell on that. It is what it is, otherwise I would have bought a Prius...:p

    I sourced the hardware (Bolts) from a local hardware store for the mounting on the Frontrunner. Just buy quality bolts and you'll be good...:D

    Rick, thanks for showing me the aquacube. I thought it was so cool, I bought me one a couple of months ago. Used it a couple of times to give my son a shower while camping, it works great. I love it.:thumbsup:
