    Someone did an awesome write up with pics on installing a set of auxiliary lights by cutting the holes in the rear bumper and wiring them up. I think they were linked in with the reverse lights. That person sanded the bumper and painted it as well. I think it was a black Taco. Wasted 3 hours trying to find it with no luck. Can anyone help me find it?

    Man I've checked all over and can't find it either. Sorry. I found one where he did the lights under the bumper is that what you're talking about

    Thanks for helping me look. No, this guy did it right into the bumper. It was a low cost well written DIY. I even checked Toyotanation.com in case I mixed things up.
