    I like that idea, did those come with the mounting hardware?

    This is what I've been looking for!!! Just never knew how to find it.

    If @uhplifted doesn't come through with the tailgate jam mounts, this is the route I'm going. I might even go this way no matter what.

    Thank you!

    No problem man, glad I helped without even knowing it. LOL

    I'm looking for light to hang off of them right now. With the mounts and lights I should still be under $50.

    Probably not happening soon unfortunately. Ryan and I are both super busy and it's tough to coordinate a date we're both open.

    Wasn't making a dig at you or anything. I still don't even own a '17 Taco (and won't for a few months) so I'm not in any hurry. I'm just a planner.

    There isn't a flat enough spot for them to sit completely flush. I had to go with a single row20170623_154405.jpg

    Have you installed the lights/mounts yet? I'm trying to think of the best ways to run the wires, I'd love to see any pics you might have of the install.

    I did mine a little bit lazier. Pull out one of the push screws that secures the bumper cap to the bumper frame, hog that hole out with a dremel or drill, secure light using that hole.

    Helped a buddy put theses on his F150. Wired directly to trailer harness. Works great. You could also add relay an switch for on demand.

    I really like these, they put out a lot of light for their size/price. We put them on quite a few of our trucks at work and have only had a few with condensation, but non have failed.
