    I contacted the mfgr. and the one sold on Amazon was supposed to be available again sometime in April or at least it was until the ship "really" hit the fan.

    So, im undecided on this one, I kinda like the lighting, but its mildly tacky. But these are EL piping, they slip between the lines on the door panels and light up. I also have a blue one that matches the dash lights, but the housing is clear so its pretty ugly when they are not on. Maybe I will get them all installed and ride around for a little while with them to see if I like them or not.

    Here is off (orange).

    How does it look at night time though? Would they be too bright and distract?

    It's not my thing and I agree that its tacky. But if you like it, that's all that matters.

    Its getting dark now, Ill swing back outside in about an hour and get a good night shot... when I say good, I mean I will use my iphone 6 with its potato camera.

    I got the lights already, so im going to try to get them installed. If they look terrible, then they will get glued to the kids beds or something.

    i bought them from another member but they’re the Morimoto xb fog lights, they sell them at TRS and a lot of other places.

    And yes, took about 20 minutes to install, take one screw out by reaching in through the hood and they plug into the stock connector.

    Itll never stop… along with the new bs threads made daily (whether is a new thread on what they did unless it included a tutorial- because then it would be worthy. But without that criteria isn’t that what this thread is for? Or for the endless minuscule complaints)
    Your talking to a bunch of hs girls bro, that would make too much sense

    Its hard to tell in the picture because my camera does a bad job, but its a soft orange glow. It actually looks pretty cool in the dark. I think im going to get them all installed, then use my wifes nice camera, or try to do a video with my gopro to show.

    I went for a drive to pick up a wheel chair...
    Here on the Big Island the Taco movement is crazy. Now with all the tourist cars off the road the ratio of Tacoma's vs other cars is insane. Even though we're on lock down the roads are still very busy. Any way... I drove 10 miles and thought it'd be interesting to count how many Taco's I saw. I counted 99 in 10 miles! I had to snap a photo of this one in the car park. I had a quick chat, lifted 11 inches, apparently was waiting for a new set of tires to be fitted to his nice rims hence the stock wheels...IMG_3774.jpg

    Finished wiring this pain in the ass up. Picked up an ebay extended harness for 30 bucks and made the switch harness myself since i used an oem style switch instead. Threw the mechanical shut off on there just in case the electric ever failed. Also have an extended hose line for airing tires back up, figured this 3 foot one makes for easy filling of paddle boards n such inside the bed. D88043D7-31B7-4485-8BD5-891996F76AFF.jpg

    I keep getting to work early since I still leave at the same time. o_O
    I hate to think of all the small mom and pop shops and restaurants and everyone else affected by this :( but I sure don’t mind the lack of cars on the road.
