    I used a rag to protect hood and small bar clamp to hold hood to hinge in place when removing bolts. Hood did not budge and no damage.

    If your planning on installing these lights or any other ditch lights don’t forget to replace the factory screws with pan head screws if not someone can just get some free ditch lights lmao no one thinks about security

    • @Runnin4Tacos
      @Runnin4Tacos  ปีที่แล้ว

      What did you need help with? The wiring is pretty straightforward. run the passenger wire over to the driver-side firewall, Connect the 2 wires together. One wire goes into the firewall or your switch, Auxbeam, ETC. One ground. That's it.

    @Patriot407 ปีที่แล้ว

    It seems that you did a good job, but if I were the customer who owns that truck, I would get pissed watching you putting the box and parts bouncing them around on the hood. Because it may result in paint scratches, in my opinion. This is some kind of negligence or a lack of professionalism. There are many places that these parts can be placed instead of on the hood. As you know these Tacoma's aren't cheap. peace. and stay skillful

  • @GhettoFabulous670
    @GhettoFabulous670 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Light bars are outdated.. stick to pods, or hidden bumper ditch lights. Those large ass light bars look hideous on a good looking truck. Hense i removed mine, when in reality, a single hidden bumper light does me good.
