    Looking to change some lighting on my taco. I have a 21 limited nightshade edition.

    Anyone use or know about how these?

    Im also looking into a IP69 led lightbar for the space under thr grill. I want it to have a RGBW capabilities, but it seems like might be a custom build out. Anyone do this withoit buildong ou their own bar. Ideally looking for a ready to install system.

    So those LED boards are not going to work for your truck. They read 16+, but won't work on the new LED headlights on the Tacoma which it would appear that you have.

    There's nothing (that's decent quality anyway) that I am aware of that would allow you to do RGBW with just the click of a button inside of your headlights or in a LED light bar.

    What goal for the front end are you looking for?

    It's going to be illegal to run any forward facing lights with any color other than white or amber. Red and Blue are definitely out - for obvious reasons - unless you're fully off public streets. TW member Crashburn80 has a couple very extensive lighting threads you might want to peruse before making any final decisions.

    Good to know on the missleading info. As for end goal... Ideally it would have been for additional light on an off road. With an option to match the change in color of the pixel board (when not in on street traffic driving).
