    Used to have a 2017 Barcelona Red TRD Off-Road DCSB 4x4
    I added mine to the 3rd row this past weekend. Bought them from Amazon. I just shaved a little from the sides of the two outer lights to make them snap right in. I think they look ok. Maybe when I have a moment I'll file off the grille's first row to make them fit. But I'm good for now, I like the way 4 look spaced out. Added a fuse tap to the headlight but may swap it to the INJ fuse for it to always be on when truck is on.

    The switch is drawing from powerout1. While the relay is drawing from the battery. Did not think the lights would draw from battery enough to have any error messages.

    How much cutting of the grill did you have to do? What did you use? And did you have to remove the grill to make the cuts?

    I watched this video and cut like he did. I used a dremel with a sanding disk. I left the grill on the truck.

    The relay isn't necessary for those small LEDs. I wired it straight to power outlet 1 without any relay and its fine.

    Do you have close ups of them tinted? How hard was it to wrap the angles?

    Installed the running4tacos kit using the add a fuse in INJ. Modifying the grill was a pain and the middle light wouldn't clip in.

    Just got mine done! More difficult then I thought, I’m going to remove and have another go at it, not happy with the edges. I like the look

    I got the four light Seven Sparta set from Amazon installed today, and it looks good. On One of my lights the surrounding is slightly bent on a corner, but otherwise they are fine. However, the middle 2 lights don't snap into the grill like the outside ones. I zip tied it back to make it tighter, but anyone else have this issue? I am also using the fake Pro grill if that matters.

    Noob wiring question fellas. How would I go about the install in regards to wiring if I wanted to add it to a switch? Not saying that’s my first choice but if I wanted to would it be hard? Thanks!

    Wouldn’t be hard at all. I asked for help for the same thing and i was told many different ways, all seemed way over complicated using relay etc. The way i ended up wiring it was by using an add a fuse into the power outlet one with a 15amp along with the 10amp already there. I ran the ground switch and grounded it with the ground for the lights. And the red wire for the lights is wired straight to the switch.

    Question guys, is it possible to wire the raptor lights to only turn on with ONLY the drls? And no when I have the low beams on? Basically just want them on when I only have the DRLs and nothing else on

    Exactly what I wanted to do. Just want the lights to be seen when they are on and more hidden when they are off. Thanks for the pics!

    Just ordered an eBay set...we'll see how they turn out.
