    I like that switch. It appears to be a part of Ford kit #FL3Z13E754A, but haven't found it offered separately yet.

    Yah man, I've searched whatever I could online and nothing just for that switch.

    I've also seen those kits and I'm debating if I should just go ahead and get it.

    I like this kit, will be interested to see how it all turns out after you've installed it. If I get it, I also would like to run it on its own switch, just not sure if it is exactly wired for the or not..

    Since the instructions calls for tapping into the dome light, I'm pretty sure there won't be any problem running it straight from the battery or from a constant hot wire from the rear. Add an inline fuse just to be on the safe side.

    Still debating if I should just stick to just that one switch in the bed.

    For the switch that goes under the HVAC controls, got it from eBay. They also have an option for the left hand side of the steering wheel if you want a switch on that side.

    Here.

    I put 2 8" submersible Shoreline strips in mine when the 5050 led flex strip failed. Switched off of interior light circuit. I may put 2 other side. WP_20150820_18_11_13_Pro.jpg WP_20150820_18_11_13_Pro.jpg

    I pulled the trigger on a set, waiting for it to come in. When it does I'll post a "how to".

    I still do need a factory-looking switch though.

    Sorry no not yet, and my apologies for not keeping this thread updated. Work is just getting on the way from me doing any mods.

    Anyways I'm going to go another route then what I originally planned for that kit. I'll be going for the 2015 F-150 style bed lights.

    Like this. Pretty much just 2 LED pods, 1 on each side of the bed wall and the switch on the driver side. I've tested each LED pod and they are really bright. I got the parts, I just need to find the time to do the mod.
    Driver side.
    9D45C4C5-5945-428F-95F9-7109D2D2EB42_zps_ced6bcb34cf4e1b53a6ebb228e300f15ab8bcabb.jpg
    Passenger side.
    064AA01A-8C02-4EA1-B451-7FF129CE2704_zps_66ed05ac9297b3820f3471f85a61a3c5104ad2ed.jpg

    2 LED pods and the bed switch. Will be installing it pretty much at the same spot as that Tundra/Tacoma kit, but a little lower just to get the full illumination on the bed.

    I like the fact that there's 2 spot that's almost angled the same way as on the F-150-.

    New guy here, I installed those the bed lights. I'll get a picture posted tomorrow. I like them, bright enough, I wired them to a factory switch like the fog light switch left of the steering wheel.

    I installed the bed light switch in the picture but didn't like the fact it doesn't dim with the other switches. If anyone is interested $20 shipped. Comes with the wire harness and instructions.image.jpg

    You beat me to it! Great job. Looking forward to seeing your pix! I got the "Offroad Arsenal" left side switch for use with my kit. Just waiting for it to show up at my door so I can get started.

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/OFFROAD-ARS...OMA-4RUNNER-/201320791479?hash=item2edfa77db7

    I do like Adio's F150 light pods, curious to see which one puts out more light?

    I'll get some night shots.
    I think there bright enough at night, even in day light you can clearly tell there on. I wired them so they can turn on with the ignition off. I wanted to put a tailgate switch in just like the doors have but in order for the lights to be on the tailgate would have to be down. It's a great mod.

    I also did some LED accent lighting for the interior cup holders, front storage cubby in the center console and inside the storage compartment in the center console.
