Behind Grill LED mounting options

Hey everyone. I'm looking for how you guy and gals are mounting your lights behind the grill of your Taco. I'm looking to redo a few things on the front of my truck and would very much like to get some ideas from all of you. In the picture, it looks like I have some individual leds burned out. They aren't, the grill has TACOMA on it and it's blocking the light.

 

BAMF light bar mounts. look them up. I have a set that I'd consider selling.

 

On my 2015 I mounted them in the grill and in the lower bumper fascia. They’re RC lights and came with brackets. The lower uses the factory bumper mounts.

 

Nice! I like the use of the natural opening in the grill. I'm thinking I'm going to move my lightbar back down to the bumper opening and move the license plate down. I moved the light bar because I couldn't get a good idea for where to move the plate. I think I've got that sorted now, so it should look much better.

 

Use the lower opening. You'll get better lighting.

 

I built a bracket out of angle iron and hardware from home depot for about $20. Painted it black and it turned out pretty good imo. I'll take some pictures when i'm back home tonight.

 

That's likely going to be my solution too. I'd love to see what you did, please do take some pictures.

 

BAMF all the way

He also makes brackets for the bars so you put a light bar in there instead

 

Where did you purchase the lower bumper valance, it an awesome set up.

 

@mit88, it's a Relentless Fabrications bumper. There's more info about it here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...-gen-stingray-bumper-group-buy-thread.576476/



@Unchained 5150, are you able to plug in your winch controller with the lights behind the grille?

I looked into mounting my lightbar behind the grille but it blocked the winch controller...I suppose I could relocate the controller to solve that.

 

Thanks for the response Zack.

 

Absolutely can without issue
