    Aux beam light bars have just as good of reviews. It’s a matter of Cree vs OSRAM.

    Yep. 32" auxbeam, cali raised brackets, and if you want, a custom push button switch from Amazon. Mine is made by CH4X4. My auxbeam came with a wiring harness but I feel like Ive seen reviews that some people didnt get one. So you might need a mictuning harness too. Im very pleased so far. Much brighter than high beams. Definitely happy I did it haha

    If you need any tips, I watched the install video on youtube by a young fella named Jesse Rizo. His video was very helpful. However, I followed their wiring advice and my dash light was always on, even when I shut the truck off. So I ended up switching the two wires and it works perfect now. Let me know if you need more detailed advice haha

    I am five weeks in to my 2019 - TRD S ACLB. 5400 miles on it already. Trying to control the mod bug a bit. Changing headlights (low and highbeam) to the PIAA LED, swapping out the fog lights for the Rigid Industries MIL-D series driving lights (6192 lumens), LED lights for map and overhead. Tires and wheels changed - 17” KMC XD122 Enduro wheels with BFG AT KO2s.

    Next on the hit list are a bed mat, snugtop shell, blackout badges, remove TRD decals, looking to add a locking gun case (torn between mounted to bed or under rear seats), replace grill once I figure out which on I want, replace front and rear bumpers.

    I was serious with my gen 2 taco and my Defender 90. Now I have a son starting Veterinarian School at UC Davis and a daughter who starts college in the fall. There goes a fair amount of mod money

    Like everyone else said, RIP wallet. I put a limit for myself how much I can spend for the year. I already went over my budget 5 times and made up bullshit excuses to my self for buying the mods. I have a freaking shovel and an axe in my truck and I live in Chicago!! Help me.... lol jk, its awesome. Community is great. Lots of peopling fabing up cool stuff and the aftermarket is endless. Take your time. Enjoy the truck. I sit and stare at it all the time because I think its one sexy ass looking vehicle. I want to take the truck on adventures and keep it for a long long time, so the money Im putting in it is to make me happy when I drive it and enjoy it even more. Anyways, great choice of color and beautiful truck. Enjoy and congrats.

    I wanted another shell top but I believe the tops look so much better on a tuck lifted more than 3”. So being I’m only going with a icon stage 3 bacflip will have to do
