    They comes with 3m adhesive on the back so you just stick it on! If you every wanna put emblems on your truck there should be adhesive at any car part store for that. Just make sure to clean the surface or it will fall off!

    Looking killer!!

    The 3M automotive adhesive tape as mentioned above works excellent! It is much better than epoxying to your paint.

    Always down for runs/hangouts/hoodrat shit!

    I had these LED daylighters sitting around so I picked up some ditch brackets. Had to do a bit of massaging because I hadn't realized just how big the daylighters were. Very pleased with the new LED series harnesses and waterproof deutsch connectors. I hope those features backfill into the legacy products!

    Also, the Gravity LEDs run cool enough that they don't heat up or melt the covers, allowing for backlight smileys :cool:

    Not quite. Sequoia is based on the tundra, the GX470 is essentially the US market version of the land cruiser Prado 120 series.

    The 4runner and FJ are based on the Prado platform but a lot more is changed .the GX even shares a lot of sheet metal,etc from the Prado 120. In a way, the 4R and FJ are based the GX :thumbsup:

    Looks awesome Justin! I'm glad you were able to get em to fit. Do you recall the beam pattern you have them in?

    Yup! Driving beam. They required cutting the mounting stud down a half inch or more to clear the apillar/fender under, and reaming the cbi brackets to a true half inch hole. Honestly, I wouldn't reccommend the Daylighters on ditch brackets because the weight of them leveraging on the cantilever ditch mounts causes lot of vibration in the beam pattern at night . Ditch lights are clearly meant to be small and light hahaha

    Hey KC Crew, just wanted to let you all know about some super specials we're running on HIDs. They're somewhat hidden on our site as you basically have to be looking for an HID light on special pricing to be able to find it. We're basically only advertising these to TW right now, so don't miss your chance to snag some of these lights! It is a limited opportunity and I just wanted to give you all the first heads up on these insane pricing. More links and pics in my thread below. And as always, if you picked up any of these lights please let me know! Post pictures. We want to see these pictures and know the crew running our lights as much as possible.

    switched out the daylighters for some flood beam G34 to fit with the snorkel. The beam is soooooo wide. I adjusted the cutoffs to pick up where my lowbeams end and I have light 90 degrees to my side.

    Nice! That's probably a good move rather than having the larger lights leveraging that bracket and the mounts. Can't wait to see more pics!
