    I asked billy to make some for me. It'd probably be a little difficult to for him to make you some since he needs the measurements and to weld in some anchor nuts

    Nope. Had a buyer supposedly ready to go with cash but he went silent before I could get it lined up for him to come see it. I haven't been advertising it as much. I come back from my deployment soon then i'll start actively trying to sell it again.

    How big are the cut outs? 5"?

    I just bought some 40w 5" pods. Very impressive. Would be sweet in the bumper.

    They are pretty big but I think you would have room.

    Not quite sure. I'm gonna have to go measure. Haven't spent too much time with the 4Runner lately. I'm off all next week so I'll be knocking out some mini projects. Hopefully some lights will be one of them. What pods did you snag?

    Going with three LED's in each of my insert side panels for turn signals. I realize there was a hole for a single 3/4" on the top right corner of them but wanted to go for a different look.

    Drilled 3/8" holes and test fitted one:

    So, looking at the wires to the signals...both wires on the signal are white with a black stripe. Which ones are positive/negative? @4Running Daily figured you've done it.

    Got a volt meter?

    Shove one needle into one of the wire ends. Then ground the other needle. If it's +12 it's thehot. If it's -12 it's the negative
