    What’s your plan for the corner lights? Are you painting the trim black?

    mind sharing the ones you purchased? A lot of us pre-1998 guys have been struggling to find anything with black trim which fits

    I drive a 1997 not a 1998, hence why I said “pre-1998”. And, yes - “really”. Many of us have struggled to find matching corner lights with black trim. And no - as implied, not all corner lights work on all first gen Tacoma’s. There are even differences between 2WD and 4WD compatibility.

    Thanks for the tip on this grill. Super easy to wire in the lights, too.

    The TAIL fuse should work fine.

    Just use a voltage meter to figure out a fuse which works. Let us know whichever one you use.

    I ended up just tapping into the corner running lights.
    Might have to figure out a new light bar position to not block the Toyota on the grill. Love it so far though.

    So does this fit a 1995 DLX pickup? Like a pre-tacoma version?
