Raptor grill lights

I am thinking about getting those amber grill lights. I want to know if someone here as any installed and how do they work e.g do run just as DRL or are they on all the time when truck is running.
Thanks for any input

 

is it friday already

 

Meaning????

 

They work however you wire them up. If you attach them to an ignition on source they will be on whenever the truck is on

Looks like links 2 & 4 are install guides

 

I was not aware of different ways to hook them up. I was going by what they show on their plug and play instruction. I just wanted to know if that meant they are only DRL or both. They don't specify that is why I am asking here. Seems like I have to wait till Friday going by one of our member lol. Thanks for being kind

 

What kit are you looking at?

 

Is it Friday? General response when someone creates a thread revolving around a common topic…such as

Motor oil selection
What’s the biggest size tires I can fit w/o a lift
Best suspension upgrade
Why is my white paint peeling
Fuel Mileage

I’d also suggest avoiding the topic of spacer lifts or blocks.

If you’re unsure, always preface your thread with the “I’ve done a lot of research” disclaimer and you should be good.

If I vanish, I’ve said too much!

 

I was looking at so many lights and got confused at what would be best, install and functions. Raptors, FilCopo and a few others. No mention of DRL or not.

 

LOL, this is definitely a uber-discussed topic around here. But we are so conditioned these days to asking the internet for an instant answer that doing some pre-question research feels like digging a damn digital ditch.

Enjoy your raptor lights OP, many on the planet do! I saw some on a mini-van recently.

 

I usually run through a couple install guides or videos by end users to familiarize myself with the process before I commit to purchasing anything. I’m an electrical dummy, so anything plug and play would be my preference. If you can find a video for the kit you are most interested in, it may have clues to how it would function. If they use an add a fuse on the drl fuse for example

 

Thanks everyone I will be looking more on videos etc to give me an idea of what I will choose.

 

Next best option leave them off. 10/10 option right there

 

I agree. Raptor lights on a Tacoma seem silly to me. But I understand we all have different taste. If I absolutely had to install Raptor lights, I would go with Amber color. I would also want to wire them in a way where I could turn them off if I wanted. Most kits I see indicate that when headlights are on, raptor lights are on since they use the headlights harness to power.

 

I have a friend who bought the Raptor when it first came out. He grins when he sees all the products as well as design cues taken from the raptor ... the 4th gen Taco is one example.

 

I admit, the look of the 4th gen is growing on me now that is becoming more common, but I really didn't like the design at first. It felt like Toyota was trying to make it look like a Ford or a Chevy.
