    I want to hook raptor lights up to the parking lights rather than the headlights. Anyone know the fuse location for park lights or how I can wire it in? 2018 SR5

    Another method is to tap into the 10A injector fuse so the raptor lights would turn on when the truck is in accessory mode or when the engine is on. No way to turn the raptor lights off when the truck is on though. My wire harness decided to cut itself in half in two places so now my lights are just sitting there on display haha

    Be careful using the Injector Fuse, some members have reported issues with using a tap on this fuse causing their trucks to stall at odd times; there was a thread a couple of days ago where a member of this forum had his Taco towed to the dealer to troublshoot this random stalling and the Dealer determined the cause to be the Raptor lights 'piggy-backed' onto the Fuel Injector fuse.

    If I were to do this mod (and I don't for various reasons) I would use a switched power-source, such as the fuse/circuit for the interior Power Point (what used to be called a Cigar Lighter). This circuit gets power when the ignition is on, none when the ignition is off.
