    Hey Dave question for ya.
    I have a set of Morimoto XB Led Headlights and a set of Diode Dynamic SS3 with backlight on order. Currently running grill lights through a fuse tap (would prefer to move to harness). Also planning for a light bar with backlight later down the road. What is my best option for tying this all together. Ideally I would have the backlights and grill lights illuminate any time the truck is on. 2021 trd sport with stock halogen.
    Thanks for the help!

    For the light bar backlight you'll want to make sure it has a relay as most light bars I've seen consume significant current. The grille lights I have are very low draw so no need for a relay there.

    By the looks of the description I will need 2. One for each side to power the fog backlights. Will I still need to power the grill lights through a fuse tap or can I incorporate that into one of the harnesses also?

    Grille lights are included with a halogen T.

    you have two options for fog backlight, dual halogen T’s and dd ss3 singles or dd ss3 dual and a wire running across the grille.
