In my daily youtube rabbit hole viewing I came across these. They are made for jeeps, but I would think something like this could be made for tacomas too. Though they may only be usefull for people with high clearance front ends.

It mounts a light to the steering knuckles so they shine where you are turning.

I love this idea. When I was in the auto tech classes my professor showed us that technology and I have wanted it ever since.
