    I just got these https://caliraisedled.com/collectio...oma/products/05-15-tacoma-bed-accessory-mount. I had to modify them a tad to make them work with my camper shell. I want to put some lights on them. I'm looking at two different options. Both are the same price on Amazon. Any other ideas? Any one have lights on these with a camper shell? What are your thoughts? Thank you.

    Here are the pics of the brackets. I have very limited space between the brackets and my shell.

    We have plenty of people that run those C2s on roof racks (sides and rear) and camper shells. They're actually relatively new - we haven't even had them out a full year yet - and people are loving them. You can see some reviews for them on our website at the bottom. Let me know if you have any specific questions!

    I did end up going with the KC 2" C-Series C2 LED Backup Area Flood Light System - #519 !!! Just got them installed today! I was wondering if the lights were gonna be to big or not. They barley fit!!! Just a hair bigger and they wouldn't work!!! Was also worried there wasn't enough wire for the second light to go across the truck. But it all ended up working out! Now I'm just waiting for dark to arrive to fine tune and adjust the lights to shine where need be!!! So far I'm glad I went this route so I didn't have to splice into my reverse lights with the rigids. Maybe ill post some pics. Thanks!
