First Gen Tacoma Tail Light Security Screws

I have a set of all clear tail lights that I don't want to get stolen. Here in Hawaii, everyone goes crazy for them and they are very easy to steal. Does anyone know where I can get security torx screws or the sizes for it? Thank you

 

Remove a screw go to your local hardware supplier match up something you like.

Remember you might need to change bulbs before you sell the truck so make sure you can remove what you decide on

welcome to TW

I had ordered a set of screws specifically for the Tacoma from someone YEARS ago (no clue who/when)

The only other problem is, if someone has the security bit they can remove it just as easy. It's not like a wheel lug lock nut, they are pretty standard

 

will that pass the Hawaii vehicle inspection?

 

What if you installed a light guard.

 

that's attached with said screws

 

The tail lights do not pass vehicle inspection but I just simply switch it back to the stock lenses.

 

Your State must be more forgiving then mine Here you and the Inspection Station would have a interesting time .

As of late Here Inspection Licenses have been getting pulled .

 

I have Red & Clear with orange bulbs. You "have" to have the red part and the reflector on the bottom outside has to be red to pass.

at least switching lenses is easy enough

 

Huh, I just don’t see where he asked if he had permission to run clear lenses.

 

ParkVisitor asked if It will pass Hawaii Vehicle Inspection

 

braaa someone just tried to steal my klearz last night! kook undid all 4 screws dropped and cracked my lense and ran! did you ever find out exactly what size the screws are? i'm looking to buy torx screws too to hopefully prevent this scrub from trying again when i buy a new one

 

I like the look of these but haven't seen any for first gens for sale anywhere. any idea where it comes from?

 

Let me get this straight- folks in Hawaii have island fever so bad that they take peoples tail lights?

Sounds like you should just run stock ones and not worry about that shit.

 

Glue thumbtacks to it like the doorbell scene in Dennis the Menace.

 

This is not wrong.

And actually, you could tape off the existing screw heads and fill them with a dab of bondo and paint them silver afterwards. Of course, to remove them yourself, you'd have to use a drill and carefully drill the head off.

 

FTFY

 

People sell the all clears for like $300+ over here. Do you know how much batu that can buy?!

 

batu! havent heard that in a while.
