    Does anyone know what switch number I need to put into my 2023 Toyota Tacoma sr5 access cab when I wire in the bed lights and if I need any sort of relay

    You should use a fused connection and a relay. I mounted switch in bed so not in cabin

    Definitely use a relay. Cheap insurance and easier to trouble shoot. I would run a dedicated line right to the battery or a constant power connection so that you can have them on when the truck is off.
