    I just did my 3rd gen, used the Morimoto switchbacks. Real pain in the butt. Final results are nice though.

    Finally got around to getting my Kustom54 lights installed. I will try and get a photo real soon. Super easy and everything worked the first time. The hardest part was wrestling the lights past the hoops on my bumper, I refused to drop the bumper. So if you have a 2nd gen Pelfreybilt bumper, it can be done. I'm not yet sure if it's needed, but what method do you recommend @kustom54lighting for alignment in regards to height? My truck has a 3" lift.

    We go off the industry standard. Cut off at 25 feet one inch lower then the headlight heigh. After that we suggest going for a drive you feel they are to high do to your lift just adjust lower

    Looking at doing this for my 2012.

    Not sure what brand to buy. Looking at morimito but they have so many options.

    Anyone have an idea?

    Curiously, what fuse did you tap into? I don't have the EFI2 as stated in the tutorial. I tapped into the EFI but I'm getting CEL with Error codes (P0031, P0102, P0416, P144C, P1600, P1300, P0051) and the Traction Off light is on as well. I have the switchbacks, but the white/DRL function is not working, just the Amber/Blinker.

    You should have EFI2, but the reason your getting the code is because your suppone to add two fuses to the tap a fuse and sounds like you only added one

    Thanks @kustom54lighting , I definitely overlooked the second fuse. That solved all the CELs. However, still not finding EFI2. I have EFI-Main and EFI. I tapped into the EFI fuse for now and everything is working as it should.
