    My mom was feeling a little left out of the vehicle upgrades with her 2015 silver Camry so I changed over all interior to LED, license plate and reverse to LED, and last night I installed this LED switchback kit

    0770A05C-36C9-46D9-A45D-477D6053D11D.jpg

    You disable the high beam DRL function and now the white is always on when driving, and switches to Amber when you put on a turn signal for either side. The kit was plug and play with built in resistors and a single wire runs to the fuse box under the hood and gets slid into the fan relay (I may switch that to an add a circuit with an ignition fuse because I like that better than shoving a wire in). All in all it’s a nice quality kit and she’s happy with it.

    She now wants me to order the new Morimoto 2stroke 2.0 LED kit for the low beams :bananadead: (my buddy just installed those same Morimoto bulbs on his Camry headlights and I have to say it’s one of the nicest kits I’ve ever seen)

    Buy some ABS plastic and do it yourself. Material cost should be < $50.

    I'm not sure how I'm going to do the LEDs yet since there's not much surface area in the middle. May have to have em pointing down

    Rigid, Baja designs and I believe Cali raised have slim line flush mounts that aren’t the standard 3x3 cube, they’d be able to go right in the middle of the flat part I believe, that’s a stout bumper tho!

    Not sure. First gen tundra rear bumpers are hard to come by. Only one brand that I know of makes em and they're ugly af and expensive. This was a custom one off Craigslist
