    Talking with my CHP buddy while it's technically not legal to have blue and green lights you would have to have 1) done something pretty stupid to get pulled over and a ticket or 2) caught them on a really bad day.

    So I had this truck 11 years and never thought to do this until I saw it here. I'm such a moron!! It took maybe six zip ties and five minutes!

    Decorated my Front Runner rack. Couldn't get a decent night shot, but it gets the point across. I used white C7 LEDs.

    Thanks. I figured it worked well since the truck is red. It also catches the snow really well and gives that evergreen look. We got 6 inches at my in-laws last night.

    Yes, it works great.

    @Blacktacoma23 do you unplug it when ur not driving... Or just hit the button on the dash?

    Wondering if I need to keep mine unplugged.

    no need to unplug them. When you turn off the ignition power is killed to the outlet. When you want to turn them back on, just hit the dash button.

    Why would the battery go out? The outlet is fused to the key. If you are walking away from the truck with keys in hand and the lights are still on, Id be worried.
