    Recently bought a bed light kit and the pop & lock power tailgate lock off Amazon and installed myself. I highly recommend doing this versus paying OEM price and the dealership to install. The pop and lock kit took a couple hours but there's plenty of YouTube videos to help get it right. The bed light kit took maybe 10 minutes. Im extremely pleased with these mods.

    Amazon bed light kit:

    Is this just plug and play if there isn't any other lights in the bed?

    That's weird. It used to link to the kit I bought. I just looked up my order history on Amazon and the link on there isn't working anymore, sorry

    Edit: It looks like this one I found, and it's roughly the same price:
    FEXON LED Bed Light/Lighting Kit for 2020 2021 & Newer Toyota Tacoma Bed Type Replacement PT857-35200
    $27 FEXON LED Bed Light/Lighting Kit for 2020 2021 2022 2023 & Newer Toyota Tacoma Bed Type Replacement PT857-35200

    Thanks for the info, I've been thinking about the power lock and you've convinced me.

    came with all weather mats, mudflaps, predetor steps, led headlights and fog lights, tech package, and black out package
    I bought the bedlight kit from the dealership 22.00 and the bedmat (shortbed) 115.00 for my weekold 22 OffRoad. I think on extrematerrain the bedmat was 160.00 and lights 55.00. So it pays to ck oem ......altho their site is a pita to use.
