    I've got a KC cyclone I'm sitting on. You just need one? Willing to ship it out.

    That is unless @JdevTac has already bought and been in contact with you beyond this thread.

    The cyclones have a diffused option. ;)

    You could do the kc lights chase bar. That’s what I did. You get red (low and high), yellow, white.

    The chase bar? On my bed rack. I really liked you solution when it was originally posted but I run my tent all the time so it won’t work.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/kc-hilites-chaselight-bar.513409

    My cyclone lights I just have camping lights and I have one on each side of my rack.

    My tent is blocking the light entirely. No one would see it

    Hence the chase bar. Goes on the back.
    Unless your tent is flush with the bed.

    Just saw your above post. That wouldn't work with how mine is setup. And I also am not spending however much money that costs for lights. I personally don't see the point of expensive ass lights, but to each his own.

    "Expensive" is all relative.

    Subd to this thread now, ready to buy whenever the 2nd gen is ready with Baja lights but if the kc option ends up working out I’m done for that!

    for a light I would get little use of and paying anything more than the Chinese Amazon lights is expensive for me. I can think of other things I'd rather buy for my truck than a $1000 light bar. That's insane. But like I said to each his own. If I had an excessive income who knows maybe I'd buy it too.

    Are you referring to the chase light bar posted above? I just looked, it said $399

    I'm referring to any of the crazily priced lights. Even $400 for that, I would never pay it. I personally can't justify spending that much on lights

    I can see where you’re coming from. People prioritize things differently. It’s just how we’re made.

    I just spent $400 on fog lights and think they’re worth every penny. However my wife sees them and asks what the fuck makes them different from stock fogs?

    Any chance of making a version with a camera (camera mount) in the center? In desperate need of a bed camera to keep an eye on cargo / backup cam when the tailgate is down. Seems every other truck either comes with this, or has an aftermarket version, except the Tacoma.

    If you have the CAM down, have you ever heard of Shapeways? https://www.shapeways.com/ For any level of scale beyond your 3d printer it has some advantages.

    I would like for you to take my money. 2013 DCSB.

    Just ask her why those louboutin's are any different than the same looking high-heels from wal-mart.:rofl:
    Once I have the footprint/bolt pattern down for the light fitment, I can make whatever on the back..just a matter of design.
    Even some truck nutz hanging off, if that's what you're into:D

    CAD***
    And Shapeways is just the hosting site, it still relies on 3rd part contractors to make the part.(i.e me)
