    Just bought white leds, wagos, holders, and a pack of four switches :D

    Pics to follow shortly :cool:

    One question before I buy more, are these leds okay to be outside the cab where the elements will hit them?

    Just received my wago clamps, still waiting on everything else. One question, how do they work? I was opening and closing the little yellow handles and looking inside it looks like nothing is even moving to clamp onto any wires...

    As far as I know - yes.

    The ones I got off EBAY were all heatshrinked and good to go. Months ago I had 2 more areas where I "was" going to mount a few more and one location was in my grill. 4 of them shooting down to light up grill area and behind my devil horn Toyota emblem.

    With the birth of my daughter I haven't done SHIT to my truck except wash it..:D

    As far as i know they should work perfect outside the cab. Just as long as as the connections are all done up good.

    If I ever get around to doing the 2 locations outside the cab I will let ya'll know.

    I don't think you're opening them all the way. Do they stay open or spring shut? It took me a while to figure that I wasn't opening them all the way to where they would stay open. Felt like I was going to break them...but they do stay open.

    They work AMAZING!!!

    1.Put the positive from truck battery to toggle/rocker switch

    2.Then put positive from toggle/rocker into one opening on the WAGO and now the whole WAGO is a positive "hub".

    3.Then put the positive wires from the leds into that WAGO and close the yellow clamp arms.

    Do the same with the negative into another WAGO and it's a all negative "hub".

    Watch your fingers....LOL....I thought I was going to break them but they are strong as hell. When you snap them shut, it can get your finger.

    I love these WAGO clamps.............lifesaver!!!!

    Ohh okay. Yeah my idea was put a few in the grill, like the raptor mod maybe. I wasn't sure how bright they would be by themselves though.

    Maybe I'll order a set or amber leds anyway :D

    It's tough to do.

    I know the best time is around dusk. Still a little light out and the flash OFF.

    About this much light:

    Lights came! I just gotta get a spool of wire and some of the smaller butt connectors and I'm good to go. I have an extra crap toggle switch I can use now until my other ones come.

    What size wire did you use?
