    Thank you for your kindness, it reflects favorably on the quality of your caricature. It wouldn't hurt for me to slow down enough to read all the information provided now and then. :thumbsup:

    We will release output data soon and compare the Elite Series fog lamps to the SS3 LED fog lamps.

    However, as stated before the SS3 Sport LED fog light kit will provide slightly more raw power than the Elite Series fog lamps.

    Hey thanks, I am actually new to Tacoma World and ownership for that matter. Not news to you I;m sure but this forum has proven to be quite a resource for me as a new owner. I actually have been considering what I might be in a position to contribute as a way of giving back that might add value to its reference resources.

    Maybe a properly documented installation of a set of your new Elite Series fog lamps would be helpful. My Tacoma is not equipped with factory Fogs, though I suspect that it is actually prewired for them.

    Feel free to reach out, maybe we can work together on this and end up with something others will appreciate.

    I was wondering if there was additional wiring, or tapping into the parking light circuit is required.

    Ah, yeah I would think so. Probably a fuse tap to a key on fuse or tap the drl power.

    I was going to ask the same thing. I'm guessing these wont be true plug-n-play.

    That cut off looks incredible for fogs. Any chance these work in the rigid housings for the trd pros?

    Our Elite Series fog lamps use plug-and-play OEM connectors and a t-tap for the backlight feature (which is optional, just leave disconnected if you don't need it!).

    Great question!

    They will be priced in accordance with other market leaders with a similar style fog lamp. However, our product will provide an extremely sharp and wide output pattern, include an amber backlight feature, and the same durability, quality, and validation testing as our Stage Series LED pods.

    Stay tuned for pricing updates closer to the release!
