    LED interior, license plate, and fog lights. More to come.
    My cheap Chinese grille came with them and I'm not using them for their intended purpose. Any creative/fun uses for them other than "throw them in the trash"? LOL.

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    1). Stick them in a vintage bottle and make a cool amber lamp out of them. Kinda like what you do with Xmas lights that work but have too many bulbs dead to mess with them.

    2). Attach them to your riding mower so everyone in the neighborhood knows who’s boss?!
    3). Put them in the atc250r cause it was meant have running lights but doesn’t?!

    Buy a battery pack and a flat bill hat. You can figure out the rest.

    RETRAX bed cover, Tailgate lock, TRD exhaust. 887's, LR UCA'S, Bilstein 5100's and Deavers AAL.
    Looks like a good option for bed or running board lights.

    You could donate them to a build in Thailand? Just saying they could use a couple more lights!
