Lights mounted behind "Grillcraft" Grill...

That is the cleanest look for a Tacoma! Love it!
Need to order a grill asap !

Looks just right and reminders me of the 60's Mustang GT

 

Very cool, I think I will do the same. Thanks for the great writhup.

 

Wow, someone revived this thread.

To the OP, looks great! How'd you get the switches installed next to the fog light switch? I was messing around last week installing some lights, and wanted the switch there, but it seemed like I'd have to take half the dash apart.

 

Sorry it took so long and with the nast winter weather of course its dirty.

^^^too high^^^^

 

Do you know how to lower it? And did you ever get your grill craft installed?

 

I'm not sure how you mounted yours.

Here's mine

Oh I see yours are much lower.. How did you mount yours though? I went right off the radiator bracket.

 

And you gotta black out your skid plate. I just bedliner rattle canned mine. Its got some chips butI am going to repaint in in the spring.

 

Well I made up a bracket shown in the picture below. It looks complicated but was quite easy Took me about an hour. But it got the lights right where I want them. Didn't have to move the horns.

Somebody else said I should black out my skid plate but I think it would disappear and I like the look of it.

 

The bracket looks good, I amy try that out.

 

Looks mean man

 

You could just run longer bolts for the fogs. I'll try to take some pictures and post it here.

 

let me know what you ends up doing, In a fews weeks all my stuff will be here and i got to figure out which way i'm going to mount mine!

 

Next weekend i might try longer bolts at the mod/meet day. I will let you know how they come out.

 

Here are the pics.

 

Awesome job man - looks really nice. Where did you get the 'Yota emblem?

 

Follow the following link and you should be able to find it.

I am planning on modding and installing HID Hella 500s as described here, and since I don't have fogs and that is on my list too was thinking of dropping them in as well. Would that work? I am only raising the fogs up 6 or so inches from the stock wells, and it is way cheaper to hide ugly universal fogs behind the grill than buy something that will fit.

Is the functionality of fogs dependent on location, or the direction they are aimed?
