Don't worry dude, you can look at the lights on mine and Jamie's trucks tomorrow at my casa. I've got more than enough beer for you to drown your sorrows or make some poor (or wise) financial decisions... pluuuuussss "if" we get a chance to swap your springs, we will have to make a trip to sdhq. So the odds are stacked in your favor

Worked my tail end off for that badge, so I have no plans to stop repping it. I didn’t spend a lot of time in that job, but it will always be a part of me.

Looks pretty bright and pretty sweet to me, plenty of light coverage about as bright as the double cab's Led bed lights on the sides of the 3rd center brake light that has the toggle switch in the cab, the instructions show you how to install using that bed light toggle switch in the double cab or how to install using the dome lighting switch in an access cab.

The problems I saw with the rail lighting is it usually lights the sides pointing downward which is sweet for some purposes but it doesn't shine light in the center where you need it when loading and unloading. These led led lights are angled and designed to light up the whole bed by directing light to the middle at the cargo which makes loading and unloading so much easier. Rail lighting is still bad ass though, heck I'd install both if I were you.

The 3rd brake light Led Bed lights are great too, but they are really best used by the driver so he can see his load and check on it during the ride by looking in the rear view and stopping and checking at the bed sides, but aren't very good at lighting the front of the cargo as you're looking at it standing in front of the open tailgate like these ones do. Also these ones can be used by the driver to check on the bed load because of their lighting coverage and the lights aren't angled into the cab so you're not getting blinded looking back there.

Bottom Line you need to keep modding so just do both cuz it'll look bad ass, heck I'm thinking about doing the rail lighting next myself, maybe I might find a way to have a switch for them inside the bed, who knows. Just Mod!

Hopefully I've been helpful

Installed my +0.0hp intake system that I assembled with a few essential pieces from other kits. The increase in throttle response and noise it makes is good enough for me. I used a TRD air flow accelerator, TRD air filter, and a red HPS silicon intake tube.

Built a ramp for doggos to come down on! One of them is a little on the large size (125lbs) and hearing him jump down scares the crap out of me...

Finally bit the bullet and snatched a bed mat. Cause now the doggos might be able to ride in the bed instead of the back seat (hair everywhere)

Settin' 'em up and knockin' 'em down!

Use this for the backseat.

So this older gentleman pulls up my driveway while I was mowing my front yard and introduced himself. He asked where I bought my truck so I gave him the dealership name and the sales person who sold me the truck. About an hour later my salesman calls me and says there is this man asking to test drive the TRD Punisher Edition. Matt, my sales guy laughed and said that he told the man the only TRD models Toyota makes are the sports, 4x4, off-road, and pro editions. The old guy wanted to argue with him even after he showed him a picture of me standing next to my new truck. A lot has changed in 4 weeks since I bought my rig. I told Matt to tell that man that I bought the only TRD Punisher Edition Toyota made. Nuff said. Oh, as for the punisher decal I received this morning, I got it on eBay for $10 bucks as my recent mod for the week.
