    Here they are with custom TRD Pro light cutouts. I'll be gluing the lights in place with 2-part epoxy. Getting ready to plastidip the bezels to ensure a snug fit.

    I could easily print you a set but the mail cost from West coast of Canada would likely be crazy. Someone closer to you able to help you out ?

    I can print them for you! I even have a spare set of the smoked amber lights I can ship to you as well. Only thing you'd need is the wiring. send me a PM if you're interested

    EDIT: and the hardware as well, I don't have enough bolts/nuts for a second set.

    Got the lights assembled, but I realized the wiring I have in my toolkit is 14 gauge and the taps want 18 gauge or smaller, so gonna go pick up the correct gauge wiring tomorrow. Hoping to have these on the truck by the weekend.

    Lol to make it worth the time it takes, the charge would be quite high unfortunately. I'll release the files for the TRD Pro style soon, though!

    I’m almost finished with my prototypes for the 2020 TRD Offroad and TRD Sport. It’s a little different design on the 3D printed brackets but complete plug and play kits will be available soon. I will update my for sale thread when available. Complete kits will cost $80 which includes 3D printed brackets, lights, wiring, connectors, and shipping. All plug and play and fully assembled.

    I'd be interested in a set if someone decides to start making some for sale.

    There are a couple ways to do this.

    I don't mind printing and shipping them, the full set takes my printer ~6 hours to make. I could print and ship just the 3d printed parts for $40-50 plus shipping, I still need to narrow down exact costs. This is what I would prefer doing.

    I could also print and assemble a full set. It takes me ~90 minutes to make the wiring harness. Putting the lights, wiring taps, and add-a-fuse together takes another 30 minutes. I would sell the full set at around $150-175 plus shipping. I would avoid doing this just because I don't want to build multiple harnesses. Someone else can do that version if they want.

    This also depends on if @StapleNut allows us to use his design and sell the parts.

    For anyone
    For anyone wanting these with the file already provided could you use something like this to do the prints? https://www.makexyz.com/?frm=logo

    I ask cause I have absolutely no clue how the 3d printing works or what is needed. Maybe an option for those of us who want them but won't rely on others that have the printer. Again, no clue how this works, but perhaps this is something we can share or whatever. Everyone on here that has made them is at the front of making this and its more than appreciated. Thoughts?

    Always an option! It might be cheaper to get the parts printed from there as well, since they use commercial 3D printers and buy filament in bulk. their costs are obviously lower than us hobbyists.
