MESO Total Tail Light Kit

It finally stopped raining. Wish me luck with the install

 

Just take your time and you should be golden

Sneak peak of the new custom Stage 1 bulbs. Like I mentioned..I went though testing of many different setups and although these have less LEDS than original, they are more efficient and brighter.
To get a comparison;
Stage 1 V1 bulbs came in at 110Lux(at 8ft) pulling .55AMPS.
The new Stage 1 V2 bulbs came in a 140lux(8ft) pulling .42AMPS
For science, the VLED stage 2 put up 195 LUX(8ft) and pulled .67AMPS.
So it's a really go balance of performance per dollar and will compliment the new stage 1 perfectly.

 

But when Tacoma Custom Master Obi?

 

Available soon?

 

Yes. The 7443 bulbs are in route, and the custom switchbacks should be wrapping up production shortly. All the harnesses have been checked and are ready to assemble kits as soon as I get the missing pieces

 

Grrrr, stop teasing! ha ha

I got money just itching to be spent, but only on some Stage1s!

 

is it possible to buy just the bulbs? I PMD you about my issue with having a harness for stage 2 but no bulbs. Never got a response

 

You can buy the Stage 2 bulbs direct from VLED.... both the Switchbacks (v6 Triton) and Horseshoe (see the photo a couple posts up... I think they call them something like SuperRed 50 LED) are available.

 

Perfect! Thanks bro

 

Was a pretty straight forward install. My drill didn’t work on the rings for stage 2, but a little bit of heat and a knife did the trick!

 

Looks great. Was gonna do stage 2 while I have these opened to avoid chips inside but missed out. Gonna try his new stage 1 when available so I can get these back together.

 

If you get some residue inside it’s pretty easy to just shake out. I tried the upside down method like Meso recommended but was apparently still sloppy. Shake out the tail light and give it a tap to stop the static cling.

 

Forgot to add quote last time. Yea just figured would be easier with them opened.

 

I didn’t open the tail lights. I simply shook out the flakes through the hole where the switchback goes; the ring that needs to be cut out for stage 2

 

Sorry for the confusion. Mine are all taken apart for blackout. Lol. Just messin around for something to do.

 

Ah, gotcha. Let me know how that turns out. I’m interested in the results

 

Still have to put back together but here it is with stuff set in place.

those are nice...did you just paint the internals?

 

Yea, lens and reflector bowls are untouched. Hardest part is the 3-C's.

 

wow...i'm surprised, it looks like you tinted the inside of the lens. i bet the 3-C's must have been a pain to tape off. did you use nightshade? I've got a pair of taillights that haven't sold in over a year, might as well rip them open and try this, they look great.
