This video misses an important point. Fuses can be plugged in backwards. There is no polarity to a fuse. Add a fuse adaptors cannot be plugged in backwards if you want your new circuit to be fuse protected. You need to know which side of the fuse holder is powered. The no wire side of the adaptor needs to go to power. If you don't have a multimeter and know how to use it.............find someone who does. If not, you run a 50% chance of having no fuse protection on your new circuit. Do you really want to pay Toyota to work on your electrical system?
So I’m not very good at electrical work, but I’ve seen people use different number fuses like in your case you took out one “10” fuse and put two of them back in but one was blue. What’s the blue one for? And does it matter what number I use?
What size fuses go into the add a fuse? I’ve heard conflicting sizes. Mine came with 2-5 amps but several videos mentioned 15 & 10 or 10 & 10. Just making sure I have the right ones. Great video
I ran in to the same problem and everyone’s using different shit so no help really. Mine came with a 5 but I removed it and put a 15 in ( per someone else’s video). But now I’m seeing videos of guys using the 5 fuse smh
Any ideas why mine aren’t working? Followed this video exactly and nothing. They don’t turn on with the headlights or when the truck is turned on. Ideally, I want them to turn on with headlights but not when the truck is just on. Have 1 10amp fuse in the add-a-fuse right now. Thanks for any help!
Just ordered these and received them in horrid condition, including no instructions, cut wires, and no extra 15A fuse. This video explains almost everything that you need to know, aside from the fact that you need a 10A fuse for your headlights, AND a 15A fuse for the raptor lights installed into the add-a-fuse. Otherwise you get drive headlight, and no passenger.
I know this is months later, but I wired mine up to the fuse that turns them on as soon as I turn the truck on. You can install the add a fuse in a couple different places
@@bobeardington4044 I’m now trying to figure this out. I know where my DRL fuse is, but my problem is that as soon as I plug in it gets power even with the vehicle off.
Hey guys - just trying to clarify, these won’t fit with the 2022 OEM pro style grille (with the TSS square sensor below the tacoma lettering)? & if so, what’s the reasoning as to why they won’t fit?
I bought these to install on my 22 trd pro and they fit just fine! Not super tight but not loose at all and I don’t feel like they’d even come out without pushing them out from the back. We’ll see how they last.
Does anybody know if these raptor lights are compatible with a 2023 TRD Pro stock grille?? I have DM’d, commented, and replied to the Tacoma Lifestyle instagram and they will not give me an answer 😩
They will work with the 14-19 trd Pro grille but on the newer ones toyota changed the grille design on the OEM trd Pro grille so sadly they wont mount to that grille properly.
They will not, these will only work with the TRD Pro Grille. You can buy the Raptor Lights in a bundle with our TRD Pro Grille if you click the bottom link in the description!
I’m in the same boat as you, just bought my 2020 TRD Off Road three days ago but I’m not sure I want to change out my grille just to have these raptor lights but they do look cool though.
@@BruceWayne-yy5dh I didn’t know that was a possibility as this is all new to me. I’ll look into it and if you know where I can purchase the bezels, let me know. Thanks!
The lights don’t fit worth a shit in the pro grill. Mine won’t snap in like yours do. Gonna end up damaging the grill trying to get them out. You guys will be giving me a refund
@@tacomacanada5740 I got them to work but I had to file down every side of the light to make the borders smaller. Kinda disappointed that tacoma world wouldn’t prorate the price due to the lack of spec but they work now so whatever. Just be aware, they will not snap in fresh from the box. At least mine wouldn’t.
Very clear instructions, the best on TH-cam !!!! actually waiting to buy the TRD Grill along with some other items from you guys !
Perfect, easy to understand and follow directions. My install went well and works just as the video does. Thanks and great product!
Finally!!! Some one showed how to thread the hot wire through the fuse box! I knew there had to be a better way! Thanks!!!
Best wiring advice I’ve seen!
It was great that you showcased the different color options mounted & lit! It helps to decide what color to buy👍💯
instablaster
Which one did you end up buying
@@veronicaserrato9827 I still want to know too haha! I'm thinking original so its dope when parked, but maybe smoked is more modern?
can't wait for them be back in stock !
great video! easy installation instructions! Thanks
love your channel
Just ordered mine!
Anything in the works for the 2022 TRD Pro grills.....?
This man could be best instructors
I just installed my grill light in Honda car 😂
I have a question. When I installed the Raptor meshlight. My automatic diurnal light won't work. My car is the 2021Tacoma TRD Pro

How would you determine which direction is correct?
Why don’t u make a bracket for the oem honey comb grill?
Things are sweet! Really like the stripes you got on there as well 👍
Thank you! We sell those on our website as well 🤘🏼

Where can I find something like this for my 2019 Toyota Tundra Trd Pro?
Lights will be always on if wired this way ?
Great video I needed to know that for the fuse box. Overpriced merchandise
My 2021 does not have a removable wire cluster. I just stuck the hot wire in the middle of the fuse box and the lid shuts fine.
Do you have any shops that can install in los angeles?
Can someone explain how do you know the right orientation?

Did you plug in the fuse you removed into your add a fuse or leave it out? I’m doing this now and I can’t seem to get my lights to come on
Did you ever find out?
I have the BAMF grille, would these work, or do you have some for that grille, thanks a bunch

Is there a way to have the Raptor lights come on with the fog light switch only?
Splice into the cable for your fog lights
Do all 4 lights have to be installed ? With the 4 pack or can 3 be installed only? Thank u
I got em and I only use 3 they work fine had em for a year now
What is the name of the fuse location where you put the add a fuse? Is it the INJ?
Do they only turn on when the low beams are on or do they also turn on in the day when only running the DLR’s
Great question
Hi, I want to buy some rapper lights amber but I don’t know how I look if I would have a yellow fog lights with that looks kind of weird
my recommendation would be to just look around on instagram and find someone that has a similar set up to what you're looking to do
What are the red yellow and orange stickers call above your grill ? I want a pair
Just for looks
Would have been cooler if u had them for the sport grill.
I got these for Christmas and when I installed them the 15 fuse for head lights has blown out twice. Could there be a reason why.
These dudes obviously don’t care to help or respond based on all the comments I’m reading….have you had any luck or figured out what was happening?

Any answers for this one?

Wish they sold lights for the standard grill
Do a search for lights with a chrome grill. That's how I got mine.

Yes it does.

10a INJ

It is a 10 amp
Why is it then when I try to use the add-a-fuse it powers while the vehicle is off?
Bro did you figure it out? Mines turns on even if the truck is off

Boy that little gap is hard to thread
Are they on only when the headlights are on as well? I’d like them to come on with the DRL’s instead of the headlights. Thanks.
You'll have to put it in the 10A (INJ) if you want them alway on

Just a follow up. One of my lights has already gone out. These lights need to be much cheaper for the quality you get.
